Giới thiệu tác giả

Charles Dickens (1812-1870) remains one of the most recognized and influential writers of the Victorian era, known for his remarkable characters, vivid storytelling, and incisive social commentary. Dickens began his career as a writer with sketches under the pseudonym 'Boz.' His serial publications of novels gained him unprecedented popularity, with works such as 'Oliver Twist,' 'David Copperfield,' 'Great Expectations,' and 'A Tale of Two Cities' becoming cornerstones of English literature. In 1846, Dickens embarked on an Italian sojourn, which inspired his lesser-known travelogue 'Pictures From Italy.' Departing from his usual fiction, Dickens offers a picturesque account of Italian life and scenery, imbued with his characteristic observational wit and narrative charm. His descriptions cascade from the comedic to the tragic, reflecting the contrasting beauty and squalor he encountered. Dickens's literary style — a blend of social realism, sentimentality, and keen irony — resonates through his travel writing as well. He utilizes a storytelling approach to convey his impressions of Italy, which, like his novels, reveals his deep concern for social justice and humanism. 'Pictures From Italy' may not have the fame of his quintessential novels, but it demonstrates Dickens's versatility and his prowess in capturing the human condition, irrespective of genre.
