In "Oliver Twist," Charles Dickens vividly illustrates the harsh realities of child labor and the grim conditions of orphanages through the experiences of the orphaned protagonist, Oliver. He highlights the exploitation and neglect faced by vulnerable children, showcasing the inhumane treatment they receive from workhouses and the corrupt systems in place. Dickens uses characters like Mr. Bumble and the workhouse system to critique societal indifference and the moral failures of Victorian society, ultimately advocating for reform and compassion towards the underprivileged.

What is the person who is in charge of an orphange called?

I don't think there is a specific title these days and the name "orphanage" is itself usually not used, being replaced with "Children's Home" etc. Centuries ago it may have been more formalized. In Charles Dickens' classic book Oliver Twist, the orphanage was run by a superintendent (Mrs. Mann), but a "Beadle" (Mr. Bumble) oversaw the operation. A Beadle was a parish constable of the Anglican Church, often charged with duties of charity like overseeing the parish the parish orphanage and workhouse.
