'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? 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 wat ching TV, you out of million hit the jackpot which would change your life forever.Or just going to school everyday and doing your homework knowing that your family poor and have money problem, you kept up in school and later went to college and getting a master degree plus a well-pay career bring you wealth. Being 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 benefactor 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 broken love and change him because if Pip didnt take the job 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 regard 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 tal k 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 especially 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 base 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 wedding 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 presen t 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. Love 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 their attitude toward other people about their wealth.Maybe being greedy or just being a fool falling in love over the person because of their wealth or their appearence. Money is money whether you earn 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 whic h 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\n'
