| Summary, etc. | To deceive others successfully, it is very much necessary to deceive oneself. Dickens knew this when he created characters like Bounderby and Gradgrind in Hard Times, a superb comedy, in which an onslaught on an age and a social system is fundamental. Bounderby's bombast rests on his conviction that he is a self-made man, coming straight from the gutter, while in reality his mother slaved to make him what he is. Gradgrind seeks to give his children and others the enlightened education by condemning them to a diet of hard facts. But even then they remain very much credible figures. |
