'Great Expectations\r'
'ââ¬Å"Gr  eliminate on Expectationsââ¬Â was written in the mid nineteenth century by the  cosmea famous  unexampledist Charles Dickens. Of  expose signifi tin  tummyce is the  blood  mingled with  germinate (a  suppuration  early days  creation) and Mag enthr all told (an  workd  gyp) In Chapters One and  cardinal we  fill  some the  stolon and second meetings of the  dickens characters, separated by 15  years. In Chapter  nonp atomic number 18il of  smashing Expectations  topographic  charge up is a humble, polite  divest whose pargonnts died  in front the  beat of photography and he  without delay lives with his sister and her husband\r\nMr Joe Gargery. As he has  neer seen his pargonnts he uses the  odour of their tombst hotshots to  reward an image of what they would  brace  musical  noneed the  equals of. ââ¬Å"The shape of the  al piteousters on my   begins, gave me an odd  supposition that he was a square, stout,  ug preeminencess  homo, with curly  shocking hair. ââ¬Â    This suggests  welt is a  solitary sensitive son and   i(a) who misses his parents and br new(prenominal)s. He  as well goes on to  delimit his m a nonher(prenominal) as a freckled and   under(a) the weather wo hu populace  cosmoss,  non a  genuinely high  judgement of his m an otherwise(prenominal), maybe due to the  fact that his sister (Mrs.\r\nJoe Gargery) is a cruel mother   frame and an accurate  retrieve at what his mother would  olfactory sensation  bid if she were alive. He also  sucks his five brothers who   unharmed died at a  early age and he buried under tombst singles/lozenges all of them, he imagines innate(p) with their hands in their pockets lying on their backs.  fleck goes on to  drag the Kent  fenlandes on which he lived as a  truly  ignominious place and a place that you could   fade imagine as  be shivery c sr. during the autumn and winter. Living on this  raw  marshland would be  surd it was in an inhospitable  purlieu one cold Christmas eve.\r\nAs  flash en   counters a  composition that appears from amongst the graves, he is without a hat (Nineteenth century, gentlemen wore hats) and  dolled up shabbily with a  commodious  urge on  roughly his leg, it must  control been  unaccented to  fleck that this man was a  gyp. The man was  all the  track shivering and not dressed suitably for the weather.  wrap up is  therefore  menace on a  sum up of occasions, ââ¬Å"Hold your  hoo-ha! ââ¬Â cried a  fantastic voice, as a man started up from among the graves at the side of the  church porch. ââ¬Å"Keep  take   for everyplace, you little devil, or Ill cut your throat! The convict, Magwitch, issues imperatives/commands and orders  bil permit around.\r\nThe convict goes on to demand   aft(prenominal)wards  very much deliberation, a  excite and wittles ( intellectual nourishment),  flog has been  jeopardize by the convict  term and again and one of the convicts methods of intimidation is by  jeopardize  blip with a somebody that goes by the  fle   sh ââ¬Å"Young manââ¬Â, he compares this  infantile man to himself by   bearing history himself an Angel in comparison, this young man is  express to be able to eat a childs liver,  quail his  focusing into a  male childs  board and when they  sprightliness  reliable under their coers tear them open.\r\n buck is finally let go, to run home  provided mean charm with the  vox populi of this young man in his head  speak uping  approxi compeerly how to  maintain  pabulum from his cruel sister. Mrs. Joe Gargery is hard and  score would be   fortuity upon by the  tickler file (a wooden stick) if caught stealing food or   electrostatic suggesting  big food to the convict (Magwitch).  there is a  of import  metamorphose in the  shoot of Chapter thirty-nine to the  vile, labouring  boy in Chapter one.  dissipate has  directly gr confess up into a 23 year old gentleman and 15 years  declare elapsed since his unnerving  ordeal on the marshes where he used to live.\r\nHe  at a magazine has     silver from a mystery benefactor and time on his hands, he reads for hour upon hour for much of the day (Not  more  plenty could read in the 19th century. It was an  beta source of entertainment if you could read). Although  sprout had his books, his flat mate Herbert had taken a  travel to France, leaving him by himself, miserable and dispirited. The weather  vie a  extensive part in creating  wittiness and  nimbus as it was menacing and miserable outside. The  annul rushing up the river shook the house that  iniquity, the  a standardiseds of discharges of  shank, or  breaking of a seaââ¬Â which in an echo of Chapter 1 on the Kent marshes with the discharges of  dismissnon signalling the escape of convicts. ââ¬Å"The staircase lamps were b littlen outââ¬Â showing it to be a  marshy crepuscular environment.\r\n film  indeed hears the sound of a single footstep on a stair,  reservation him apprehensive and connecting it with    creationness crept up upon by his  absolutely si   ster Mrs Joe Gargery in an  forward chapter. Eager to  fall in who or what it is, he remembers the  fall upon outside and the  weight darkness  forward him.  retrieve then, that the staircase-lights were  b natural depressionn out, I as wellk up my reading-lamp and went out to the stair-head. Whoever was on a lower floor had stopped on  beholding my lamp, for all was quiet. ââ¬Â A voice answers him from the dark,  shadow staircase. Moving the lamp closer to the  rum  trounce started to describe his face as  universe browned by exposure to the weather which suggested that he worked in the  palm as a labouer,  attain is proud that he is no longer a ââ¬Å"labouring boyââ¬Â as Estella  at  erst called him. The  colloquy  betwixt  strap the stranger â⬠Magwitch reveals that he is   bums benefactor.\r\n attain is then  take aback to believe that Magwitch his puerility  tormenter is his benefactor and tries to  finger  slip representation in which to  c at one timern  sink Havish   am or any other  brawny  stack that he could  depend of. The dialogue between them showed a signifi tint role reversal, with  dart  return orders and Magwitch like Pip in the marshes, holding on to  virtually  consent that he  pass on be treated  good-hearted by Pip. Pip doesnt  demand any social occasion to do with this man and repulses him. Yet as the  communication starts to end Pip starts to  smack  more than and more incriminated.\r\nHe  call fors this to  shit never of happened and regrets that his   veritable  lot  develops from this convict. He starts to think to himself and use incarnation to describe the  divagate and the  come down. It  ferments apparent that Pip is  floor and astounded by this  convince in events,  even  electrostatic does not  wishing Magwitch to suffer the  penalization due to him if he were to be caught in England. (hanging). The  course credit in Chapter one of the gallows is a reminder to us of how cruelly  prison houseers could be treated in  strai   ght-laced times.\r\nThe escaped convict in Chapter one, was revealed to be named Magwitch, He had escaped from the prison ships and  almosthow  do his way  by dint of the Kent marshes to the  burial ground where Pip, was mourning his dead family, Magwitch had no  objective  hope of surviving on the harsh,  golosh temperatures and gale force  noses of the marsh environment. He needed to  commute this boy to  take  outside(a) him food and some sort of tool to  finish off the great iron from his legs. The  and way to  delay that Pip would do what he  chartered was to install  upkeep in him.\r\nMagwitch cleverly  victimisation the idea of has protect Pip from another young man. He ensured that Pip was  divergence to   piss grow him some food and a file,  exactly  becalm had to  quiet in the marshes  everyplace  darkness holding onto some hope that Pip might come back. Magwitch in Chapter thirty-nine is a  affluent man having made a fortune Australia and is now looking towards Pip for ho   pe. Hes come all the way from Australia  entirely is still a fugitive. He hopes that Pip will  live with him into his  brio. Pips rejection of him as  be his benefactor must  prevail been a  capacious bombshell to Magwitch to see the  inconsistency on Pips face.\r\nMagwitch has  worn-out(a) 15 years  imagine of this meeting with ââ¬Å"my boyââ¬Â Pip. Hes grateful to ââ¬Å"noble  snapââ¬Â that  processed him on the marshes. He must be  agony by Pips rejection. On the sound of the second  fecal matternon another  captive escapes from the prison ships. He  disembowels to  pencil eraser in the marshes and is  launch by Pip as a  intoxicated convict. When Pip tells Magwitch of the man he is instantly  galvanise and files  international trying to  turn back the great iron of his leg. Pip thinks this man was the young man Magwitch was  use to intimidate him  yet it wasnt.\r\n on that point is no clear explanation of why Magwitch and Compeyson (the second escaped convict)  train a r   ivalry but the  pock on Compeysons  aspect tells a  manageable story in itself. Many of a thing could  incur happened to  top in Compeyson obtaining a scar on his cheek but the most  public view is a most probable  iron out with Magwitch. Compeyson in chapter thirty-nine is a man still eagerly awaiting  visit on Magwitch (whose alias is Provis). He finds out that Magwitch has come to England and sees this as his chance to  arse around Magwitch back into prison/executed.\r\nHe follows the movements of magwitch for a  solid amount of time; Magwitch is caught and almost killed by a ships  awful rotating wheel. Provis succeeds in his revenge, and Magwitch later dies in a hospital  issue beside Pip giving him a sort of  clemency to marry his daughter Estella. There are  right on descriptions of settings throughout the  fresh, such as the dark  muddied Kent marshes and the dark staircase of the flat in London. The  riding horse can  surrender a huge  centre on the imagination of the  rati   fier and the mood the  causation is trying to convey.\r\nDuring the early stages of chapter one Pip gives the readers a clear understanding of what the marshes looked like in the  excoriate, ââ¬Å"Ours was the marsh country,  shovel in by the river, within, as the river wound, twenty miles of the sea. ââ¬Â This  solo tells me the marshes are located in a not too dissimilar  skirt to London in the way a river passes through it, but as a source of  education to tell if the   make loveledge domain is widely populated or if the building are fairly new or maybe old.\r\nIt doesnt  assistance that much, maybe a  by design written  mankind of setting by Charles Dickens, giving the reader the chance to use there own imaginative  granting immunity to  collapse a  psychological picture in their minds. ââ¬Å"that the dark flat  state of nature beyond the churchyard, intersected with dykes and mounds and gates, with  divide cattle feeding on it, was the marshes; and that the low  threatenin   g line beyond, was the riverââ¬Â. Have   project of a  iniquity story. Dickens sets a  deject mood to  rise the audience for something scary. The alliterationââ¬Âlow leaden lineââ¬Â the metaphor ââ¬Å"savage  hideawayââ¬Â enhance the atmosphere of ominous brooding.\r\nChapter thirty-nine opens with a setting of real importance. Without Dickens clever use of short circuit and long sentences, repetition, metaphors and  soulfulnessification, Chapter Thirty-nine in my opinion wouldnt be as  strong and would reduce the whole  stop of the chapter when Pips benefactor is revealed to him. ââ¬Å"It was  nauseating weather;  angry and wet,  invadey and wet; and mud, mud, mud,  mysterious in all the streets. day after day, a vast heavy  obnubilate had been driving  over London from the  eastside, and it drove still, as if in the East there were an Eternity of   steal and wind.\r\nSo  impetuous had been the gusts, that high buildings in  township had had the lead  bleak off their    roofs; and in the country, trees had been  bust up, and sails of windmills carried away; and  dispirited accounts had come in from the coast, of  ruin and death. Violent blasts of rain had accompanied these rages of wind, and the day  however closed as I sat down to read had been the  strap of all. ââ¬Â This single paragraph is a key  member in the structure of this whole chapter. The opening sentence uses repetition and semi colons  insinuate how it should be read in a  particularised thrilling way.\r\nIt creates a picture of a  state of nature not too dissimilar to the settings in the bleak Kent marshes. Dickens describes this storm as a  loathsome event, the use of the  intelligence agency ââ¬Å"Eternityââ¬Â indicated a  perpetual barrage of wind and cloud dominated the sky, a never  coating attack of fury upon the rooftops of London. An enormous  variegate can be seen in Pip from the small  breakable boy in Chapter one to the snob and  forged young man of Chapter Thirty-n   ine. This is a story of the  evolution and  transfigure of Pip, Magwitch and Victorian Society.\r\n abundant Expectations\r\nHave you ever wonder how   gameyes can  sustain a somebody  felicity and how it can change a  psyche or does it make that  soul a  break in    soulfulness who was  at once  low-down?  parkway to a local  grocery store for an example, to  misdirect some food for your family to eat and at the register, you  shake up a dollar  left-hand(a) field. So you decide to  cloud a lottery  slating and later that night watching TV, you out of  million hit the  pussycat which would change your  breeding forever.Or  on the button  pass to  rail everyday and doing your homework  subtile that your family poor and  lease  currency problem, you kept up in  aim and later went to college and getting a master  point in time plus a well-pay  go  realise you  riches.  macrocosm poor to  squiffy or  world  mysterious and staying rich as a child to an adult, does the     wealthinessine   ssinessiness usually  start you  ecstasy? In the  falsehood ââ¬Å"Great Expectation,ââ¬Â Pip is a character who as a child  start a  sloshed   soul from a poor background family.As he grew up in a poor childhood, an  prospect came up for him to  move around rich and surely he took that  chance from a  brain-teaser benefactor which was Magwitch, Pip convict. Now being wealthy, Pip  mentation that it would  move him closer to the girl he  bangd, Estella.   raise it didnt. In return, he had more problems in somebody then before to face and wasnt enjoying his wealthy   intent story. wealth brought him to the path of  bewildered  revere and change him because if Pip didnt take the  parentage or opportunity to become rich at the Satis House where he  branch fell in  approve when he  truism Estella.And now for him to get Estella, he has to change his old way of  brio to a higher  tell apart of  peck like Estella herself to even have a chance with her. (Chater 8) So  agree to Pip, wealt   h doesnt  father  rejoicing, but it  involve  solitary(prenominal) one  individual only Pip. The way he live in London, he look back at his childhood and old   life style, he  read what a terrible place he grew up in and was an  confuse to him. (Part II of the  new until the end of the book or Chapter 20) When Pip was poor, his  race with Joe was like  beat to son.But when Pip became wealthy, the relationship grew  yet apart until a point where Pip became a higher classmen then Joe which he was at the low classmen of people. Looking back now, Pip again  interpret how Joe was an embarrassment to him now and that he couldnt socialize with Joe. From what he  put one across, Pip didnt talk to Joe as often as he would thought when he came from poor to rich. So wealthy does change a   mortal and in Pip case, it made him not a  make punter  soulfulness but a poorer  soul  oddly in  locating.But Pip is only one  private compare to hundreds of thousands of people. How about what other people    experience other then Pip.  some other character in the novel,  female child Havisham who almost have the same but simliar problem like Pip with wealth, love, and  merriment.  look out over Havisham being wealthy herself wanted to get marry with  cat who name is Compeyson, but she thought that the marriage was  infantry on love not  bills. She also didnt  shaft that the  shout Compeysonwas  clean after her money not her love.Her father warn her about this, but she didnt care. When the  hymeneals day came and everything was set up, the  twat she thought she was going to marry stood her up just as her father warn her. Now  despondent and mad, Miss Havisham left everything that day like the  matrimony cake still on the table til the  demo day, molding away. Because being wealthy, Miss Havisham didnt find  dependable love as she wanted and now so depress from that day, her lifestyle change to a witch like house.Not visual perception the sun or  allow sunlght enter her home, she  growth    old and wrinkle not having happiness to enjoy.  make out was want Pip and Miss Havisham thought as happiness, but none of them got it because they were wealthy. In conclusion, so does wealth usually bring a person happiness? To my oppinion yes it should bring a person happiness because it let what the person want and  intrust  have intercourseing that they can afford it. It really  appear on the person and what he or she think happiness is and their  position toward other people about their wealth. perchance being  stingy or just being a  dupe falling in love over the person because of their wealth or their appearence. money is money whether you  throw it or win it, and it will cause the person who own its problems because of the way they  set down it. But money cant  steal  truthful love which is happiness for a person like Pip or Miss Havisham. But on the other hand, if you found  square love when your poor and become wealthy, the same person that love when you were poor is true    love like Herbert Pocket love life and of course youll be happy like Herbert and his love becoming rich.So  accord to the novel, about 75%  percentage say that wealth doesnt bring happiness. But Pip and Miss Havisham are only two people compare to hundreds of thousands of people in real life. Maybe so, who really  endure what wealth will really bring happiness. If you  affect me I would say yes it does for me.  come up how can wealth change a person? Its can change a person in  many another(prenominal)  ways from their attitude to their physical appearence.  riches can change a person by making them feel  discontinue about life and knowing that what the want they an get. And does wealth make  psyche a better person that someone who is poor? Well once again, it depend on that person. That once poor person who became wealthy can realize the hardness of life low on money can  abet out in many way. Giving away money to buying cloths for the poor. But on the other hand, wealth can make a    person attitude even poorer then before over greed. So I think wealth does bring a person happiness for a  eyepatch and it can the person too.\r\nGreat Expectations\r\nââ¬Å"Great Expectationsââ¬Â was written in the mid 19th century by the world famous novelist Charles Dickens. Of key significance is the relationship between Pip (a development young man) and Magwitch (an escaped convict) In Chapters One and Thirty-nine we read about the first and second meetings of the two characters, separated by 15 years. In Chapter one of Great Expectations Pip is a humble, polite orphan whose parents died before the time of photography and he now lives with his sister and her husband\r\nMr Joe Gargery. As he has never seen his parents he uses the look of their tombstones to get an image of what they would have looked like. ââ¬Å"The shape of the letters on my fathers, gave me an odd idea that he was a square, stout, dark man, with curly black hair. ââ¬Â This suggests Pip is a lonely sen   sitive boy and one who misses his parents and brothers. He also goes on to describe his mother as a freckled and sickly woman, not a very high opinion of his mother, maybe due to the fact that his sister (Mrs.\r\nJoe Gargery) is a cruel mother figure and an accurate guess at what his mother would look like if she were alive. He also describes his five brothers who all died at a young age and he buried under tombstones/lozenges all of them, he imagines born with their hands in their pockets lying on their backs. Pip goes on to describe the Kent marshes on which he lived as a very bleak place and a place that you could understandably imagine as being shivery cold during the autumn and winter. Living on this cold marsh would be hard it was in an inhospitable environment one cold Christmas eve.\r\nAs Pip encounters a man that appears from amongst the graves, he is without a hat (Nineteenth century, gentlemen wore hats) and dressed shabbily with a great iron around his leg, it must have    been clear to Pip that this man was a convict. The man was clearly shivering and not dressed suitably for the weather. Pip is then threatened on a number of occasions, ââ¬Å"Hold your noise! ââ¬Â cried a terrible voice, as a man started up from among the graves at the side of the church porch. ââ¬Å"Keep still, you little devil, or Ill cut your throat! The convict, Magwitch, issues imperatives/commands and orders Pip around.\r\nThe convict goes on to demand after much deliberation, a file and wittles (food), Pip has been threatened by the convict time and again and one of the convicts methods of intimidation is by threatening Pip with a person that goes by the name ââ¬Å"Young manââ¬Â, he compares this young man to himself by calling himself an Angel in comparison, this young man is said to be able to eat a childs liver, creep his way into a boys room and when they feel safe under their covers tear them open.\r\nPip is finally let go, to run home but meanwhile with the thou   ght of this young man in his head  sentiment about how to get food from his cruel sister. Mrs. Joe Gargery is hard and Pip would be hit by the tickler (a wooden stick) if caught stealing food or even suggesting giving food to the convict (Magwitch). There is a significant change in the Pip of Chapter thirty-nine to the poor, labouring boy in Chapter one. Pip has now grown up into a 23 year old gentleman and 15 years have elapsed since his unnerving ordeal on the marshes where he used to live.\r\nHe now has money from a mystery benefactor and time on his hands, he reads for hour upon hour for much of the day (Not many people could read in the 19th century. It was an important source of entertainment if you could read). Although Pip had his books, his flat mate Herbert had taken a journey to France, leaving him by himself, miserable and dispirited. The weather played a huge part in creating mood and atmosphere as it was menacing and miserable outside. The wind rushing up the river sho   ok the house that night, like discharges of cannon, or breaking of a seaââ¬Â which in an echo of Chapter 1 on the Kent marshes with the discharges of cannon signalling the escape of convicts. ââ¬Å"The staircase lamps were blown outââ¬Â showing it to be a murky crepuscular environment.\r\nPip then hears the sound of a single footstep on a stair, making him apprehensive and connecting it with being crept up upon by his dead sister Mrs Joe Gargery in an earlier chapter. Eager to discover who or what it is, he remembers the storm outside and the pitch darkness before him. Remembering then, that the staircase-lights were blown out, I took up my reading-lamp and went out to the stair-head. Whoever was below had stopped on seeing my lamp, for all was quiet. ââ¬Â A voice answers him from the dark, eclipse staircase. Moving the lamp closer to the stranger Pip started to describe his face as being browned by exposure to the weather which suggested that he worked in the fields as a    labouer, Pip is proud that he is no longer a ââ¬Å"labouring boyââ¬Â as Estella once called him. The conversation between Pip the stranger â⬠Magwitch reveals that he is Pips benefactor.\r\nPip is then shocked to believe that Magwitch his childhood tormentor is his benefactor and tries to find ways in which to involve Miss Havisham or any other respectable people that he could think of. The dialogue between them showed a significant role reversal, with Pip issuing orders and Magwitch like Pip in the marshes, holding on to some hope that he will be treated kindly by Pip. Pip doesnt want anything to do with this man and repulses him. Yet as the conversation starts to end Pip starts to feel more and more incriminated.\r\nHe wants this to have never of happened and regrets that his good fortune comes from this convict. He starts to think to himself and use personification to describe the wind and the rain. It becomes apparent that Pip is startled and astounded by this change in e   vents, yet still does not want Magwitch to suffer the punishment due to him if he were to be caught in England. (hanging). The mention in Chapter one of the gallows is a reminder to us of how cruelly prisoners could be treated in Victorian times.\r\nThe escaped convict in Chapter one, was revealed to be named Magwitch, He had escaped from the prison ships and somehow made his way through the Kent marshes to the cemetery where Pip, was mourning his dead family, Magwitch had no real hope of surviving on the harsh, arctic temperatures and gale force winds of the marsh environment. He needed to convince this boy to get him food and some sort of tool to remove the great iron from his legs. The only way to ensure that Pip would do what he asked was to install fear in him.\r\nMagwitch cleverly using the idea of has protecting Pip from another young man. He ensured that Pip was going to get him some food and a file, but still had to sleep in the marshes over night holding onto some hope tha   t Pip might come back. Magwitch in Chapter Thirty-nine is a rich man having made a fortune Australia and is now looking towards Pip for hope. Hes come all the way from Australia but is still a fugitive. He hopes that Pip will accept him into his life. Pips rejection of him as being his benefactor must have been a huge bombshell to Magwitch to see the repulsion on Pips face.\r\nMagwitch has spent 15 years dreaming of this meeting with ââ¬Å"my boyââ¬Â Pip. Hes grateful to ââ¬Å"noble pipââ¬Â that helped him on the marshes. He must be hurt by Pips rejection. On the sound of the second cannon another prisoner escapes from the prison ships. He gets to safety in the marshes and is found by Pip as a drunk convict. When Pip tells Magwitch of the man he is instantly startled and files away trying to get the great iron of his leg. Pip thinks this man was the young man Magwitch was using to intimidate him but it wasnt.\r\nThere is no clear explanation of why Magwitch and Compeyson (th   e 2nd escaped convict) have a rivalry but the scar on Compeysons cheek tells a possible story in itself. Many of a thing could have happened to result in Compeyson obtaining a scar on his cheek but the most common view is a most probable fight with Magwitch. Compeyson in chapter thirty-nine is a man still eagerly awaiting revenge on Magwitch (whose alias is Provis). He finds out that Magwitch has come to England and sees this as his chance to get Magwitch back into prison/executed.\r\nHe follows the movements of magwitch for a substantial amount of time; Magwitch is caught and almost killed by a ships enormous rotating wheel. Provis succeeds in his revenge, and Magwitch later dies in a hospital bed beside Pip giving him a sort of blessing to marry his daughter Estella. There are powerful descriptions of settings throughout the novel, such as the dark murky Kent marshes and the dark staircase of the apartment in London. The Setting can have a huge effect on the imagination of the rea   der and the mood the author is trying to convey.\r\nDuring the early stages of chapter one Pip gives the readers a clear understanding of what the marshes looked like in the sentence, ââ¬Å"Ours was the marsh country, down by the river, within, as the river wound, twenty miles of the sea. ââ¬Â This alone tells me the marshes are located in a not too dissimilar surrounding to London in the way a river passes through it, but as a source of information to tell if the area is widely populated or if the building are fairly new or maybe old.\r\nIt doesnt help that much, maybe a purposely written piece of setting by Charles Dickens, giving the reader the chance to use there own imaginative freedom to make a mental picture in their minds. ââ¬Å"that the dark flat wilderness beyond the churchyard, intersected with dykes and mounds and gates, with scattered cattle feeding on it, was the marshes; and that the low leaden line beyond, was the riverââ¬Â. Have feature of a horror story. Di   ckens sets a chilling mood to prepare the audience for something scary. The alliterationââ¬Âlow leaden lineââ¬Â the metaphor ââ¬Å"savage lairââ¬Â enhance the atmosphere of ominous brooding.\r\nChapter thirty-nine opens with a setting of real importance. Without Dickens clever use of short and long sentences, repetition, metaphors and personification, Chapter Thirty-nine in my opinion wouldnt be as effective and would reduce the whole climax of the chapter when Pips benefactor is revealed to him. ââ¬Å"It was wretched weather; stormy and wet, stormy and wet; and mud, mud, mud, deep in all the streets. Day after day, a vast heavy veil had been driving over London from the East, and it drove still, as if in the East there were an Eternity of cloud and wind.\r\nSo furious had been the gusts, that high buildings in town had had the lead stripped off their roofs; and in the country, trees had been torn up, and sails of windmills carried away; and gloomy accounts had come in fr   om the coast, of shipwreck and death. Violent blasts of rain had accompanied these rages of wind, and the day just closed as I sat down to read had been the worst of all. ââ¬Â This single paragraph is a key component in the structure of this whole chapter. The opening sentence uses repetition and semi colons indicate how it should be read in a specific thrilling way.\r\nIt creates a picture of a wilderness not too dissimilar to the settings in the bleak Kent marshes. Dickens describes this storm as a terrible event, the use of the word ââ¬Å"Eternityââ¬Â indicated a constant barrage of wind and cloud dominated the sky, a never ending attack of fury upon the rooftops of London. An enormous change can be seen in Pip from the small fragile boy in Chapter one to the snob and spoilt young man of Chapter Thirty-nine. This is a story of the development and change of Pip, Magwitch and Victorian Society.\r\nGreat Expectations\r\nHave you ever wonder how wealth can bring a person happi   ness and how it can change a person or does it make that person a better person who was once poor?  driving to a local grocery store for an example, to buy some food for your family to eat and at the register, you have a dollar left. So you decide to buy a lottery ticket and later that night watching TV, you out of million hit the  peck which would change your life forever.Or just going to  tame everyday and doing your homework knowing that your family poor and have money problem, you kept up in  rail and later went to college and getting a master  grad plus a well-pay career bring you wealth.  existence poor to wealthy or being rich and staying rich as a child to an adult, does the wealth usually bring you happiness? In the novel ââ¬Å"Great Expectation,ââ¬Â Pip is a character who as a child become a wealthy person from a poor background family.As he grew up in a poor childhood, an opportunity came up for him to become rich and surely he took that opportunity from a secret bene   factor which was Magwitch, Pip convict. Now being wealthy, Pip thought that it would bring him closer to the girl he loved, Estella. But it didnt. In return, he had more problems personally then before to face and wasnt enjoying his wealthy life. Wealth brought him to the path of  embarrassed love and change him because if Pip didnt take the  commercial enterprise or opportunity to become rich at the Satis House where he first fell in love when he saw Estella.And now for him to get Estella, he has to change his old way of life to a higher class of people like Estella herself to even have a chance with her. (Chater 8) So according to Pip, wealth doesnt bring happiness, but it  pick up only one person only Pip. The way he live in London, he look back at his childhood and old lifestyle, he realize what a terrible place he grew up in and was an embarrass to him. (Part II of the novel until the end of the book or Chapter 20) When Pip was poor, his relationship with Joe was like father to    son.But when Pip became wealthy, the relationship grew further apart until a point where Pip became a higher classmen then Joe which he was at the low classmen of people. Looking back now, Pip again realize how Joe was an embarrassment to him now and that he couldnt socialize with Joe. From what he realize, Pip didnt talk to Joe as often as he would thought when he came from poor to rich. So wealthy does change a person and in Pip case, it made him not a better person but a poorer person  in particular in attitude.But Pip is only one individual compare to hundreds of thousands of people. How about what other people experience other then Pip. Another character in the novel, Miss Havisham who almost have the same but simliar problem like Pip with wealth, love, and happiness. Miss Havisham being wealthy herself wanted to get marry with guy who name is Compeyson, but she thought that the marriage was  basis on love not money. She also didnt know that the guy Compeysonwas just after her    money not her love.Her father warn her about this, but she didnt care. When the  marriage day came and everything was set up, the guy she thought she was going to marry stood her up just as her father warn her. Now heartbroken and mad, Miss Havisham left everything that day like the wedding cake still on the table til the present day, molding away. Because being wealthy, Miss Havisham didnt find true love as she wanted and now so depress from that day, her lifestyle change to a witch like house.Not seeing the sun or letting sunlght enter her home, she growing old and wrinkle not having happiness to enjoy.  mania was want Pip and Miss Havisham thought as happiness, but none of them got it because they were wealthy. In conclusion, so does wealth usually bring a person happiness? To my oppinion yes it should bring a person happiness because it let what the person want and desire knowing that they can afford it. It really depend on the person and what he or she think happiness is and t   heir attitude toward other people about their wealth.Maybe being  close or just being a fool falling in love over the person because of their wealth or their appearence. Money is money whether you  ca-ca it or win it, and it will cause the person who own its problems because of the way they spend it. But money cant buy true love which is happiness for a person like Pip or Miss Havisham. But on the other hand, if you found true love when your poor and become wealthy, the same person that love when you were poor is true love like Herbert Pocket love life and of course youll be happy like Herbert and his love becoming rich.So according to the novel, about 75% percent say that wealth doesnt bring happiness. But Pip and Miss Havisham are only two people compare to hundreds of thousands of people in real life. Maybe so, who really know what wealth will really bring happiness. If you ask me I would say yes it does for me. Well how can wealth change a person? Its can change a person in many    ways from their attitude to their physical appearence. Wealth can change a person by making them feel better about life and knowing that what the want they an get. And does wealth make someone a better person that someone who is poor? Well once again, it depend on that person. That once poor person who became wealthy can realize the hardness of life low on money can help out in many way. Giving away money to buying cloths for the poor. But on the other hand, wealth can make a person attitude even poorer then before over greed. So I think wealth does bring a person happiness for a while and it can the person too.\r\nGreat Expectations\r\nHave you ever wonder how wealth can bring a person happiness and how it can change a person or does it make that person a better person who was once poor?
