What do you think that Charles Dickens meant by accusing Eastern State Penitentiary despite the good intentions of its founders to be immeasurably worse than any torture of the body?
Charles Dickens likely believed that the psychological torment inflicted by the isolation and sensory deprivation experienced in Eastern State Penitentiary was more damaging than physical torture. He may have been highlighting the severe mental anguish and long-lasting effects of solitary confinement on inmates' mental health and well-being. Dickens' criticism suggests that the prison's methods, though well-intentioned by its founders, had a deeply detrimental impact on individuals' psyche.
