For Bleak House, I chose to focus on Dickens' commentary on religion within the novel. I think it is going to be an interesting approach to viewing the writing. As I read, I sense that Dickens is using satire and hyperboles to almost poke fun at religion and those that follow religion. I think it might be a challenging aspect to focus on just because it can be hard to tackle things like religion and how writers comment on that. This week I added to the timeline about the flourishment of Evangelical Protestantism and how Dicken's portrays this movement through Mrs. Pardiggle and her pursuit of sharing her faith. At first, I was having trouble finding aspects of the book that relate to that movement but when I started to look more into Mrs. Pardiggle I saw how she was a prime example of the Evangelical movement. Approaching the novel in this way has opened up my eyes to how people viewed religion in this time period. I think with the introduction of science and this movement of religion, there were mixed opinions about how people should be living during this time period. I think Dickens does a good job of recognizing those different opinions in the novel Bleak House.
