They could be called Pip’s“O, God bless him! O, God bless this gentle Christian man!”12“Look’ee here, Pip, I’m your second father. You’re my son“I lived in a state of chronic uneasiness respecting my behavior to Joe. My conscience was not by any means fortable about Biddy.”8The degeneration of morality just meant that Pip lost his nature for the moment. He spent money like water, and was heavily in debt. However, he still assisted his friend Herbert to participate in a business secretly. We can say that he didn39?!癵reat expectations” was to be a blacksmith like Joe in this period.The childhood of Pip was miserable not only because he was subjected to his sister and Pumblechook’s hypocrisy, but also because of the bourgeois influence. Such a beginning also foretold a miserable future.2. After Meeting Miss Havisham and EstellaAs Miss Havisham and Estella appeared, Pip’s mind changed a lot. Because of the love with a beautiful but young pride girl, and the profound impression of the luxurious decoration, spooky atmosphere and sorrowful mysterious color in Satis House, Pip had a new idea of his humble status and vulgar behavior. On being scorned by Estella for having coarse hands and thick boots, Pip for the first time felt ashamed of being poor, and he significantly stated that he wished Joe had been rather more genteelly brought up, so that he might have been as well as him.

IntroductionA. The Life of Charles DickensCharles Dickens was born on February 7, 1812, and spent the first nine years of his life living in the coastal regions of Kent, a county in southeast EnglandFor Pip, his“sir”, which showed their distance. Droved by the vanity, Pip didn’t feel they were intimate as before.During this period, Pip became a gentleman from a mon person suddenly, but he was not selfconfident and happy. He started to make selfexamination for what he had done.“The abhorrence in which I held the man, the dread I had of him. The repugnance with which I shrank from him, would not have been exceeded if he had been some terrible beast.” But Magwitch called Pip his son, Pip’s straight and genuine words indicated that he was influenced by Joe’s words and deeds. Actually he had realized his fault, and was able to return to the proper path. Now that Joe represented the human moral standards of kindness and simplicity, Pip as a child must depend on Joe to reach a higher stage. Only Pip turned back to childhood, became a child again, and loved this child, a foundling, he could bee innocent, noble and happy. Pip was able to do it, because he ever loved Magwitch.“father”.“……a keen sense of incongruity. If I could keep him away by paying money, I certainly would have paid money.”7“Don’t cut my throat, sir, Pray don’t do it, sir.” And in the marsh with dense fog, Pip was scared very much as a child. Though Pip was afraid, he was still sympathetic and kind to the convict. For Pip, it was easier to run home and ask for help from Joe or policemen than steal food and file for the convict. But Pip kept his promise with the person fed up with sufferings. When Pip knew that policemen were searching the escaped convict, he even was worried about him. Here, litter Pip’s simplicity and kindness came to life.Pip was an orphan living in the caprice, cruelty and violence of his sister and also in the earnest exhortations of Uncle Pumblechook. Such living conditions resulted in a timid and sensitive Pip. Joe was the only one who took care of Pip. He treated Pip as his dear friend and gave Pip sincerity and fort. He led Pip to realize that there was happiness and warmth in life even though his influence was too weak to bat Mrs. Joe and Uncle Pumblechook. Joe’s protection was limited. So as the false values about money and social status penetrated into Pip’s world, his mind was affected greatly. Because he could not resist the temptation, therefore, he lost balance in mind.B. The Plot of Great ExpectationsMany of the events from Dickens’s early life are mirrored in Great Expectations, which, apart from David Copperfield, is his most autobiographical novel. Pip, the novel’s protagonist, lives in the marsh country, works at a job he hates, considers himself too good for his surroundings, and experiences material success in London at a very early age, exactly as Dickens himself did……”2 but this person’s social status was lower than him. He wanted to escape from the embarrassing situation, but where could he go? Joe’s house was not the refuge because Pip had shunned Joe for quite a long time and he felt shame to Joe. Uncle Pummblechook’s shop would not take him either. The Satis Manor, of course, had no room for him. After intense inner conflicts, he finally decided to stay with the convict and help him immigrate to other countries. In England, Magwitch’s stay was against the law. From now on, we found a strong Pip. After so long time of illusions, he finally realized the nature of the bourgeoisie. He was deeply
