ohhh meant to tell you, there's a bit in italics for Miss Havishams characterisationy bit which was taken from somewhere else and put there cause i though it made sense. Buuuut, i'm thinking it could just get cut cause it was fine without that bit there and it would get rid of 102 words

ahh thank you! this is my conclusion, i think it needs more evaluation rather than plot telling? the total amount of words needing cut now is 1,139 another bit i thought could get cut is the bit about the greedy fat men in the characterisation bit of Oliver Twist cause its sort of just an added random bit at the end of paragraph Throughout Dickens’ literature, his characterisation, creation of setting and use of narrative style, allow him to successfully establish divisions among those of varying social statuses. Moreover, within the differing social classes, Dickens portrays there to be varying standards of moral integrity and values. Throughout “Great Expectations”, “Oliver Twist and “Hard Times” the characters who aspire to, or indeed already possess vast amounts of money, are shown to endure a life of discontent and immorality. In “Great Expectations”, Pip’s principles and sense of morality are both shown to diminish as he ascends the social hierarchy. Whilst in “Oliver Twist”, Small sliver of wood generally used in fire-makingin’s longing for the attainment of money ensures him a life of disrepute and corruption. Moreover, in “Hard Times” Mr Bounderby is portrayed to be greatly lacking in moral integrity, and eager to act in a superior manner and mistreat those of a lesser social status – resulting in his downfall. Conversely, in “Great Expectations”, Mr Brownlow is shown to live a prosperous, content life – not due to his affluence, but instead his desire to consistently act in a morally just manner. Similarly, Oliver is shown to ultimately attain happiness, a life of fulfilment, and increase his social standing through his unwavering ethics. Additionally, in “Hard Times” the outcome of the various characters fates are shown to be heavily weighted by the way in which they conducted themselves and treated others. Throughout these novels, Dickens speculates the merit of ethics against social standing. Through his portrayal of a sense of karma, he communicates his opinion, that morality and principles are of the utmost value, and the key to a life of contentment and prosperity. (271 words)
