New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 184 p. The Spirit of Dickensian Style is a book that contains the analysis of certain stylisticfeatures and linguistic data of Charles Dickens's five short stories in Christmas Books (1852). The stories of Dickens were stylistically analyzed under the categories defined by Leech and Short (Style in Fiction, 1981) within four headings: grammatical analysis, lexical usage, analysis of figures of speech and of narration. As a great observer, reformist and spokesman of his age, Charles Dickens artistically combined his messages with his stylistic preferences in his masterpieces. Although 'Stylistics'is the main core of this book, the aim of The Spirit of Dickensian Style was not to arrive at totally new interpretations of Dickens's works through reducing his style to a mechanical objectivity. Rather, the aim was a literature-centered stylistic analysis to show how Charles Dickens presented his social messages related to the issues of Victorian Age.

br. Casa Desolata (1852-53) occupa un posto particolare nel macrotesto dickensiano. Se si prende il 1850, anno di pubblicazione di David Copperfield, come una sorta di spartiacque nella produzione dello scrittore, questo è il primo dei cosiddetti dark novels con cui inizia la fase matura della carriera di Dickens, sia per la stagione della sua vita, sia per le innovazioni di tecnica narrativa, sia per la presenza più marcata di toni cupi e accenti polemici. Qui c'è "tutto" Dickens: quello della scrittura autobiografica, con il racconto di Esther, uno dei due narratori; quello drammatico, con la vicenda di Lady Dedlock e i suoi segreti; quello comico, con alcuni personaggi minori; quello melodrammatico, con il giovane spazzino Jo che vive e muore nel degradato quartiere londinese di Tom-all-Alone's; quello del "mystery and detection", con l'inchiesta dell'Ispettore Bucket; e infine quello della denuncia sociale, che si scaglia contro le diseguaglianze di classe e il sistema giuridico britannico.
