Overview

"Barnaby Rudge" est un roman historique de Charles Dickens, publié en feuilleton entre 1840 et 1841. Il n'a pas été divisé explicitement en tomes lors de sa publication initiale, mais plus tard, il a été édité en plusieurs volumes, ce qui peut expliquer la référence à "Barnabé Rudge, Tome I". L'histoire se déroule pendant les émeutes de Gordon en 1780 à Londres. Le personnage principal, Barnaby Rudge, est un jeune homme simple d'esprit, et l'intrigue explore les tensions sociales et politiques de l'époque. Le roman présente le style caractéristique de Dickens, avec une galerie de personnages mémorables et une satire sociale habile. Bien qu'il ne soit pas aussi célèbre que certaines autres oeuvres de Dickens, "Barnaby Rudge" offre une perspective fascinante sur l'histoire et la société de l'époque.

About the Author

About The Author
Charles Dickens (1812-1870) is probably the greatest novelist England has ever produced, the author of such famous books as A Christmas Carol, Hard Times, Great Expectations, David Copperfield, and Oliver Twist. His innate comic genius and shrewd depictions of Victorian life — along with his indelible characters — have made his books beloved by readers the world over. Dickens was born in Landport, Portsea, England and died in Kent after suffering a stroke. The second of eight children of a family continually plagued by debt, the young Dickens came to know hunger, privation, and the horrors of the infamous debtors' prison and the evils of child labor. These unfortunate early life experiences helped shape many of his greatest works.
