Dickens Not Fine in Delineation of Woman Dickens had no theories about worn en as a s e x ; he had no theories about mankind. He did not try to account for his women characters by reliance on a formula. They Interested him h s Individuals, and the most successful of his women characters are those with some heavily underlined pecu liarity which enabled him to keep up an incessant excitement about them. Is the comment of a writer In the Westminster Gazette. Mrs. Nickleby and Halrey Gamp live vividly because Dickens' imagination was working nt high pressure when he created them, and his excitement In fects his readers. The women about whom he felt so Intensely sre human and therefore credible; hul Pickens never worked dispassionately or far enough away from his subject to m iik e his women universal. In creating Mlaa Wardle lac felt the pathos of the love lorn spinster. But he had to make a Jest of the elopement with Jingle, whoa« rascality silone saves the seen» from complete reality. Dickens rnn away from Mlsa Wardle’a emotional tension because she was a good wom an and for women of her tyj>e to give way to emotion waa a littla improper. For with all his Imagination, sym pathy, and aeuta sensibility, Dickens could never persnsde himself that women have the ordinary feelings and fallings of humanity.
