Fallen Women in David Copperfield

In Charles Dickens’ David Copperfield, the title protagonist narrates and recollects events right from birth, through to his coming of age as an adult. What is interesting about his novel is that Dickens included similar events from his own life into the story told by David, such as his painful experience of working in the Blacking Factory as a child (“Charles Dickens”), which was mirrored by Copperfield’s time at the wine factory. Dickens also had a history in helping with the “fallen women” in the 19th century. A friend of his, Angela Burdett Coutts, convinced him to help her with a venture: the “Urania Cottage” (“The Biography Of Charles Dickens”). This showed his sympathy in trying to help these women, which even went so far as the portrayal of some characters in his novels as well. Consequently, within the novel, David Copperfield describes them as sympathetic victims who have been deemed outcasts. Nevertheless, he enlists a rich variety of characters; among them are two female characters that are especially relevant to this discussion, Little Emily and Martha Endell.
Little Emily appears early in the novel and quickly becomes one of David’s strongest childhood crushes. As time goes on, David, begins to feel infatuated with her, and starts to wish that time would be able to stand still so that they would be able to stay in this fantasy forever; “[…] as if Time had not grown up himself yet, but were a child too, and always at play” (Dickens, 36). This quote shows the innocence of childhood and the perception of Emily still in her purity and untainted. Dickens does well in foreshadowing, then, Emily’s misfortunes early in the story, during one of their games by the sea. Emily endangers herself, which David can only comment in one way, since this imprinted itself on him so strongly: “The incident is so impressed on my remembrance, that if I were a draughtsman I could draw its form here […] and little Em’ly springing forward to her destruction […] with a look that I have never forgotten, directed far out to sea.” (36). When Emily jumps we can interpret it as Emily’s step motion towards falleness, David being helpless except to look on, not being able to do much about it once that first action had been taken as she descends upon the outskirts of society, just as her position on the log she folloed. When Copperfield recollects the memories from that day, in comparison to her actual fall later in life, David wonders if it might have been better for her sake, if she had drowned that day (36).
Furthermore, Little Emily’s decent is all her own doing because of her own strong ambitions of no longer wanting to be just a fisherman’s daughter: “‘I’m not afraid in this way,’ said little Em’ly. ‘But I wake when it blows, and tremble to think of Uncle Dan and Ham, and believe I hear ‘em crying out for help. That’s why I should like so much to be a lady’” (36). Her fear of losing those who care for her in the same way she lost her father, is one of her strongest driving forces in life. Therefore, it was not Steerforth’s charms and good looks or any form of manipulation that caused Emily to fall, but rather the possibility of him being a means of her achieving her goals, as she says about him about not returning from their elopement “unless he brings me back a lady” (387). However, this scenario fits perfectly into the popular cliché: a working-class girl caught up with an upper-class man who views her as a distraction for a short period of time. Emily falls into this category since from the beginning Steerforth is an impulsive man who puts no consequence on his actions. Furthermore, the possibility of Steerforth marrying Emily was unlikely, since that would have meant a step down the social ladder, something Mrs. Steerforth explains to Mr. Pegotty: “He would disgrace himself. You cannot fail to know that she is far below him” (402). This causes Emily the main blunt force of social ridicule following the relations between the two.
Next, Martha’s fall is also foreshadowed as she is described by Dickens to be closely woven with Emily’s character, when Martha is described as a shadow that follows Emily; “‘That is a black shadow to be following the girl” (208). Although how she became a fallen woman is not explicitly stated, there is a very similar scenario that we find: she became an orphan at an early age, and the lack of a family was often believed to contribute to moral ruin (585). Still, Martha has had to put up with social ridicule from everyone in town, as Ham points out, “‘It’s a poor wurem, Mas’r Davy, […] as is trod under foot by all the town’” (288). This social neglect has proved to make it difficult for her to find work, so the only alternative was to seek the help of Emily and escape to London and be able to start fresh: “No one knows me Works Cited

The Victorian Age

...name from Queen Victoria who ruled from 1837 to 1901; it was a complex era characterised by stability, progress and social reforms, and, in the mean time, by great problems such as poverty, injustice and social unrest; that’s why the Victorians felt obliged to promote and invent a rigid code of values that reflected the world as they wanted it to be, based on: * duty and hard work; * respectability: a mixture of both morality and hypocrisy, severity and conformity to social standards (possessions of good manners, ownership of a comfortable house, regular attendance at church and charitable activity); it distiguished the middle from the lower classes; * charity and philanthropy: an activity that involved many people, expecially women. The family was strictly patriarchal: the husband represented the authority and respectability, cosequently a single woman with a child was emarginated because of a wide-spread sense of female chastity. Sexuality was generaly repressed and that led to extreme manifestations of prudery. Colonialism was an important phenomenon and it led to a patriotism deeply influenced by ideas of racial superiority: British people thought that they were obeying to God by the imposition of their superior way of life. The concept of “the white man’s burden” was exalted in the works of colonial writers (such as Rudyard Kipling). This code of values, known as “Victorian Compromise” founds its basis in some religious and philosophical movements: * evangelicalism:...

Charles Dickens

...campaigned vigorously for children's rights, education, and other social reforms. Dickens sprang to fame with the 1836 serial publication of The Pickwick Papers. Within a few years he had become an international literary celebrity, famous for his humour, satire, and keen observation of character and society. His novels, most published in monthly or weekly instalments, pioneered the serial publication of narrative fiction, which became the dominant Victorian mode for novel publication.[4][5] The instalment format allowed Dickens to evaluate his audience's reaction, and he often modified his plot and character development based on such feedback.[5] For example, when his wife's chiropodist expressed distress at the way Miss Mowcher in David Copperfield seemed to reflect her disabilities, Dickens went on to improve the character with positive features.[6] His plots were carefully constructed, and Dickens often wove in elements from topical events into his...

...UNIT ONE THE GIFT OF THE MAGI By O. Henry I. Introduction O. Henry, whose real name was William Sydney Porter (1867 – 1910), is famous chiefly for his short stories. These stories are usually set amid the poorer working – class life of the cities, the characters being ordinary simple people with their daily living to earn, a life which O.Henry knew well. But the stories are not mere realistic sketches. O. Henry had both the craftsmanship of a writer and the compassion of a man. As a writer he constructs a clever plot with an unforeseen and an unexpected climax suddenly released so that the reader is kept guessing till the last moment what the outcome is to be. As a man he saw the drab surrounding and narrow circumstances which he described, but he lit them with sympathy and humour. Though in most of his stories humour seems to be predominant, yet the sympathy is always there, so the humour is warmed and enriched by its humanity. The story that follows, however, is an example of the reverse process. There are more tears in it than laughter. Yet laughter is implied and one might say that because of it the tears are touched with a more tender compassion. II. Text One dollar and eighty – seven cents. That was all. And sixty cents of it was in pennies. Pennies saved one and two and a time by bulldozing the grocer and the vegetable man and the butcher until one’s cheeks burned with the silent imputation of parsimony that such close dealing implied.

Eva Ibbotson - a Company of Swans

...A Company of Swans Chapter One There was no lovelier view in England, Harriet knew this. To her right, the soaring towers of King's College Chapel and the immaculate lawns sloping down to the river's edge; to her left, the blue and gold of the scillas and daffodils splashed in rich abundance between the trees of the Fellows' Gardens. Yet as she leaned over the stone parapet of the bridge on which she stood, her face was pensive and her feet— and this was unusual in the daughter of a professor of classics in the year 1912— were folded in the fifth position. She was a thin girl, brown-haired and brown-eyed, whose gravity and gentleness could not always conceal her questing spirit and eagerness for life. Sensibly dressed in a blue caped coat and tarn o'shanter bought to last, a leather music case propped against the wall beside her, she was a familiar figure to the passers-by: to ancient Dr. Ferguson, tottering across the willow-fringed bridge in inner pursuit of an errant Indo-Germanic verb; to a gardener trimming the edges of the grass, who raised his cap to her. Professor Morton's clever daughter; Miss Morton's biddable niece. To grow up in Cambridge was to be fortunate indeed. To be able to look at this marvelous city each day was a blessing of which one should never tire. Harriet, crumbling bread into the water for the world's most blase ducks, had told herself this again and again. But it is not cities which make the destinies of eighteen-year-old girls, it is people— and...

...FOREWORD "Whatever your mind can conceive and believe it can achieve." - Napoleon Hill American born Napoleon Hill is considered to have influenced more people into success than any other person in history. He has been perhaps the most influential man in the area of personal success technique development, primarily through his classic book Think and Grow Rich which has helped million of the people and has been important in the life of many successful people such as W. Clement Stone and Og Mandino. Napoleon Hill was born into poverty in 1883 in a one-room cabin on the Pound River in Wise County, Virginia. At the age of 10 his mother died, and two years later his father remarried. He became a very rebellious boy, but grew up to be an incredible man. He began his writing career at age 13 as a "mountain reporter" for small town newspapers and went on to become America's most beloved motivational author. Fighting against all class of great disadvantages and pressures, he dedicated more than 25 years of his life to define the reasons by which so many people fail to achieve true financial success and happiness in their life. During this time he achieved great success as an attorney and journalist. His early career as a reporter helped finance his way through law school. He was given an assignment to write a series of success stories of famous men, and his big break came when he was asked to interview steel-magnate Andrew Carnegie. Mr. Carnegie commissioned Hill to...
