Abstract
Charles Dickens is not considered only as the “ first great urban novelist in England” but also as a social analyst and critic of The Victorian Age. According to Dr. Andrzej, Oliver Twist is studied as the first novel of Dickens that carries a social commentary of his following “Condition –of-England” novels. this essay aims to explore the reflection of Victorian values and ideals of womanhood with references to certain social problems such as crime, child abuse, poverty and social hiearchy in the novel which can be accepted as a social document of its time. With this aim in mind, the question “How does Dickens exhibit the Victorian values and ideals of womanhood through the female figures in “Oliver Twist”?” is discussed. This study is mainly based on the guidance of Oliver Twist as the primary source while some other secondary sources such as articles are referred to for the purpose of utterly percieving and assesing expectations and roles of women in social context.
