Description

This scholarly study reinterprets Charles Dickens' novels as a distinctive form of poetry, examining how his language and style create layers of meaning that resist single interpretations. The author argues that Dickens' nineteenth-century writing treats language as inherently double, revealing unconscious processes that disrupt conventional ideas and ways of living. Drawing on Victorian texts and contemporary critical theory, the book explores Dickens' engagement with literature, popular song, jokes, and caricature to demonstrate how his prose functions poetically. Part of the Routledge Studies in Nineteenth Century Literature series, this work offers literary scholars, Dickens specialists, and students of Victorian poetry new approaches to reading his novels as complex, multi-layered texts rather than straightforward narratives.
