This article examines moral education and social reform in Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. The study analyzes the moral development of the protagonist Pip and Dickens’s criticism of Victorian social inequality, class division, and materialism. Through literary analysis, the article explores how Dickens uses characterization, symbolism, and narrative structure to promote ethical values such as honesty, loyalty, humility, and compassion. The research demonstrates that the novel reflects Dickens’s humanitarian ideas and his desire for moral and social improvement in Victorian society.Библиографические ссылки
