This semester we'll experience two of the most important writers of the Victorian period, Charles Dickens and William Makepeace 1xbet online sports betting . Dickens, of A Christmas Carol fame, is famous for his combination of sentiment and hard-hitting social commentary; while 1xbet online sports betting , whose "breakthrough" work was called The Book of Snobs, privileges detached analysis. Contemporaries and, to a certain extent, rivals, Dickens and 1xbet online sports betting allow us to compare two attitudes towards fiction: the one seeks to move emotionally through an appeal to emotion and sensation, while the other asks us to analyze, reflectively and ironically. There are many other points of comparison, but their novels are terrific: funny, heart-rending, expansive.
