While he and his character bear many similarities, Dickens’s main focus in the novel is addressing the social aspects of his time, rather than telling the story of his life. Charles Dickens was the second of eight children born to Elizabeth and John Dickens in Portsmouth, England in 1812. His father worked as a clerk in the pay

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Huck is a person to be admired. His caring attitudes and blunt honesty prove that he is a great person.

The Role of the Great Mother in Beowulf Grendel's dam is not simply a "wandering fiend" (1621), a "swamp thing from hell" (1518), or a "troll-dam" (1391). She is an example of what Erich Neuhmann in his book, The Great Mother, calls an embodiment of the Great Mother in her "negative elementary character" (147).
