Thoughts Through Bleak House

Submitted by Madison Wagner on

While reading through Bleak House, I am still trying to pinpoint what I want to focus on, but it has proven to be an interesting read. The interactions of the characters and the way that they react to their new surroundings and ever changing circumstances is so intriguing to me. I have yet to focus in on one historical aspect, but every historical aspect presented in the book is experienced differently between the characters and their reactions and how they choose to live through this time is fascinating. 

Role of Women

Submitted by Rachel Henriquez on

There is a lot to look at while reading Bleak House by Charles Dickens. I have noticed multiple different things such as the use of opium and filth of the city. One thing that continually is prominant to me are the different roles of women throught the novel. Yu see the religious missionaries, verses the more uptight strong women. You also see the weak woen as well. My focus will be on the different social and marital constructs of the women throughout the novel and the men as that is important as well.
