What role did Australia play in the British criminal justice system during Charles DICKENS lifetime?

I need to know Australias influence on the Criminal Justice System from 1812-1870. I know that Australias population was greatly influenced by British immigrants, and I know that Dickens family had some financial problems, as John Dickens was arrested for debt during Charles childhood. I need a good answer by 25 August please. oh. thanks.
Answer: Australia's role on the British criminal justice system was mainly to alleviate the overcrowding in English prisons due to the enactment of some rather harsh, all encompassing, laws. The first fleet of convict ships arrived at Botany Bay (Sydney) on 20 January 1788. The last convicts to be transported to Australia arrived in 1868 in Western Australia. Much of this happened during Charles Dickens's lifetime, however it had nothing directly to do with his father's imprisonment. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries about 60, 000 convicts were sent to the British colonies in North America (the US and Australia have a lot in common). When the American Revolutionary War brought an end to this the British Government was forced to look elsewhere. Australia was where the British established a penal colony (or colonies) to alleviate pressure on their own prisons. See the source below for a history: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convictism_in_Australia As I understand the history of Dickens's childhood had nothing to do with Australia. John Dickens went to debtors' prison (in England) and so did the rest of the Dickens family (which was common - except for Charles). Charles was working at a warehouse near the present Charring Cross railway station which was near the debtor's prison. The money Charles earned (six shillings a week) pasting labels on jars of shoe polish paid for his way at the house of Elizabeth Roylance (a family friend). John Dickens latter got out of prison and paid his debts. See the source below for these details. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Dickens These two sources listed above should get you started on your research. Hope this helps and good luck on your assignment.

What is the connection with cooling graveyard and DICKENS when he wrote Great Expectations?

I know there is a graveyard in the opening scene but is the graveyard near where Dickens lived? How did he know about the graveyard?
Answer: The graveyard was located on the marshes around Kent, near the junction of the Rivers Thames and Medway. These are areas that Dickens knew well from childhood. http://www.cliffsnotes.com/WileyCDA/LitNote/Great-Expectations-About-Great-Expectations.id-118,pageNum-19.html (About Great Expectations p. 3 Cliff Notes)

How realistic was DICKENS description of the Workhouse in Oliver Twist?

Were the places as bleak and cruel as he suggests, or are his descriptions melodramatic? On the other hand, was Dickens perhaps being too theatrical and cliched; were the conditions even more brutal? And was the kind of "Dickensian" poverty he writes about as prevalent in his society as he makes out?
Answer: Very realistic actually. He grew up relatively well to do, but by the time he was twelve, his father grew in to debt and was thrown into a debtor's prison. Young Dickens was forced to leave school, live alone and work in a boot blacking factory ten hours a day in conditions that he later described as shocking, and he was still 12 years old. You have to remember that in those times even thought it's the Victorian era did not have the reforms that we have today. Child labor was a fact and no child protection, there was not education for the poor, abuse (of any kind) was everywhere and the only way to have power is to have lots of money. This was very real and very prevalent and I think the way he described was actually tame, as the conditions were really like actually for the poor. After his own experiences he later became an advocate for the poor and oppressed.

How much editing did Alexandre Dumas, or Charles DICKENS need to do before publishing?

Nowadays people need to edit a story about 100 times before anyone will even think about publishing. Charles Dickens and Alexandre Dumas published their stories weekly in newspapers. Other authors such as O. Henry did too. Their stories are still famous.
Answer: Just because they published their stories week by week, that doesn't mean that they didn't draft each installment several times and carefully edit them before going to print. Plus, even if they didn't do much editing, those writers are geniuses, and that's why their work has survived. Most of their contemporaries - who we *don't* still read today - were mediocre, and those mediocre writers probably had just as hard a time getting published as equally mediocre writers today. 'Editing' doesn't necessarily mean 'shortening', either, unless you're a massively undisciplined writer. A hugely long novel might still have undergone a lot of editing and re-drafting prior to publication. Moreover, plenty of long and unwieldy novels are still published, to great success, to this day.

What DICKENS book should I start with?

I am very interested in reading Charles Dickens, but I dont know what book I should start with. I have no real preference as to length or subject matter, Id just like to have a read which will give me a good idea of his style.
Answer: I've read all of Charles Dickens' novels except his unfinished The Mystery of Edwin Drood. Although The Posthumus Papers of the Pickwick Club (also known as The Pickwick Papers) was his first novel, it's very long and rambling. I found it very humorous and enjoyed it a great deal, but - since it's basically a series of vignettes that spotlight the adventures and misadventures of four members of the club - I wouldn't recommend you start with his first. In my opinion your best bet is to read A Christmas Carol, which is also his shortest novel. It will give you an introduction to Dickens and his style without being burdened by the length. After that I would recommend perhaps Great Expectations, David Copperfield, A Tale of Two Cities, Nicholas Nickleby or Oliver Twist. If you're interested in his short tales, I'd suggest reading The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain or The Signal Man or The Chimes. Hopefully you'll appreciate and enjoy Charles Dickens' stories. I know I do.

Answer: By showing the huge difference between Scrooge at the start and Scrooge at the end. If you're not laughing your head off at his behaviour - particularly in the shaving sequence - you're not understanding it. I agree with hiryuu that the book is very good and you're missing out if you don't read it. It's also not particularly long so shouldn't take long to read.

What is the difference between department 56s DICKENS Village and Snow Village?

I accidentally bought 2 pieces- 1 from each set, and am trying to decide which set to keep: Dickens or Snow Village. Id like to know more about how they are different.
Answer: First, a little info... I've been an avid collector of the Dickens Village series of Department 56 for about 15 years. I own over 60 buildings and about as many accessories. The Snow Village was the first "village" of ceramic (and/or porcelain) houses/ figures that Dept. 56 began producing in 1976. Next was the Dickens Village in 1984. If I had to generalize, I find that the theme and design of the Snow Village resemble 1950s small town America, somewhat modern yet nostalgic. Copyrighted pieces, like a Harley Davidson shop, for example, are just a small part of this wide ranging series. Bowling alleys, movie theaters and drive- ins, etc. Of course, the Snow Village is the original, so it's certainly still very relevant and collectible. My favorite, obviously, is Dickens. It's basically a model of what London and its surrounding countryside resembled in the 1830s- 1870s, coinciding with Dickens' life, idealized of course. Manor homes, castles, mills, old stone churches, combined with the urban life of hotels, bars, schools, etc. The choice is up to you, good luck and happy collecting. Careful, it can become addictive, as they create many new pieces each year.

How did Charles DICKENS influence the world around him? Does he continue to influence the world today?

I know Charles Dickens wrote a lot of books, many of which are classics. I was wondering what he influenced specifically. Were the poor laws ever changed in response to "Oliver Twist"? Were any of the social issues he highlighted in his books ever revised or corrected? Or was his influence merely literary? Did he do nothing more than introduce vibrant characters and plots? Has his influence continued into modern times? If you have any opinions, they would be welcomed. Thank you in advance!
Answer: By the late 19th century we see the growth of labor unions and all kinds of laws designed to improve the lot of the urban poor: universal education, the 8-hour day, workplace safety, unemployment benefits, retirement benefits, and other things we often take for granted. We also see the growth of socialist philosophies and movements at the same time. Dickens's voice was one of many, but a very loud one, that helped bring about these changes. If you want a more specific example, look at Christmas. Prior to the publication of "A Christmas Carol" December 25 was both a regular work day and a school day--not a holiday. With this and his later Xmas stories, Dickens almost single-handedly made December 25 a holiday.
