Great Expectations

Camilla and Georgiana are Pip's sister and sister-in-law in Charles Dickens' novel "Great Expectations." They dislike Pip because they find him ungrateful and believe he has become snobbish and ashamed of his humble roots after receiving his unexpected fortune, which contrasts with his previous poor and humble status.

I expect the event to run smoothly with engaging presentations, interactive activities, and meaningful networking opportunities. I anticipate insightful discussions, positive outcomes, and a generally successful outcome for all involved.

The first convict tells the sergeant he stole the food Pip brought him because he doesn't want Pip to get into trouble for giving him gifts. The convict wants to protect Pip and prevent him from facing any consequences for showing him kindness.

Mrs Joe receives the twenty-five pounds as compensation for the injuries she sustained during the attack on her home. The money is a form of reparation for the suffering and trauma she experienced.

Drummle is arrogant, aloof, and self-centered, while Startop is friendly, kind, and loyal. Drummle is competitive and often antagonistic towards others, whereas Startop is more collaborative and supportive. Overall, Drummle is portrayed as a negative character, while Startop is depicted in a positive light.

I would expect my line manager to provide clear direction, support my professional development, offer constructive feedback, and advocate for resources needed to succeed in my role. Open communication and a collaborative working relationship are also important expectations.

If the novel "Great Expectations" continued, Pip would likely continue to struggle with his relationships, particularly with Estella, and his identity. He might continue to grow and mature as he learns more about himself and makes amends for his past mistakes. Ultimately, Pip could find closure and satisfaction by finding inner peace and contentment in his life.

Both the convicts - Magwitch and Compeyson - are sworn enemies and given half a chance they would immediately kill one another. In Ch. 3 both of them have escaped from the prison ships and are in hiding on the marshes waiting for a suitable opportunity to make good their escape. Naturally,they are both tense and nervous and scared of the slightest noise. Their imaginary fears makes them to over react even at the slightest noise or disturbance. This is what is surprising about their attitude and adds to the suspense, because the readers want to know more about the relationship of these two convicts. When Pip mistakes Compeyson for Magwitch and tries to surprise him by coming upon him from the behind unexpectedly, Compeyson imagines that some one has come to catch him and knocks down Pip and runs away. Similarly, when Pip gives the food and the file to Magwitch and tells him about Compeyson whom he had just then encountered, Magwitch becomes distracted and angry and in his revengeful mood begins to file away at his iron shackles so that he chase down Compeyson and kill him.

Expectations of permanence and sexual exclusivity in society contribute to stability in relationships and families, promoting trust, commitment, and emotional security. These expectations also help to establish social norms and values that prioritize long-term investments in relationships, which can in turn contribute to individual well-being and societal cohesion.

Pip Pirrip is the protagonist and narrator in the novel Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. Being raised by his sister and brother-in-law in Kent, England, Pip is an innocent, compassionate but lonely young boy. As Pip gets older and is introduced to new people (upper class), he second-guesses his life and what he wants. Believing that anything less than upper class is beneath him, he sets his sights on a new and "improved" way of life. During the process, he becomes snobbish and proud. As Pip falls deeper into debt and confusion about his own life, everything around him begins to fall and collapse. Once Pip hits rock bottom, the man who was the true gentleman in the first place once again brings him back onto his feet. Lonely because of isolation from the everyday outside world and "normal family-ties" (Coles Notes 101), Pip often visits his parents in the churchyard and explores the marshes.

Flopsen is a character in Charles Dickens' novel "Great Expectations." Flopson is a servant in the household of the Pocket family, assisting Mrs. Pocket with various tasks. She is portrayed as a loyal and hardworking servant in the story.

It is ironic that Mrs Joe does not attend church in Great Expectations because she is portrayed as highly righteous and moral throughout the novel, yet she neglects this important aspect of her faith. This contradiction suggests that her righteousness may be more outward appearance than genuine belief.

When the offer comes, Pip is disillusioned with his future as a blacksmith. Because of the time he spends with Miss Havisham and Estella, he is ashamed of his common origins and his "lowly" position. Estella scorns him, and he has a major crush on her, so he doesn't want her to have any reason to scorn him. He already thinks often about becoming a gentleman so that he is worthy of Estella. When the offer comes, it is exactly what he thinks he needs to complete his fantasy of a perfect life.

Pip is reminded of his convict when Orlick mentions that Magwitch, whose description matches Pip's convict, has been seen around town. Pip's anxiety is heightened when he hears this news in the Jolly Bargemen, as it suggests that his past may be catching up to him.

The prisoner Provis/Magwitch had been transported (shipped to Australia as punishment for a crime) for a stated number of years. He returned in spite of it and was liable for re-arrest if anyone recognized him and turned him in. He returned for two reasons: first, he wanted to see "his gentleman" Pip; it's revealed that Provis/Magwitch was Pip's benefactor instead of Miss Havisham, as Pip assumed. His second reason was to be avenged on the man (Compeyson) who turned him in originally. Herbert knows that Provis will be arrested and hanged if he's not smuggled out of the country. He is, in fact, caught as Pip is desperately trying to get him to the Continent. Provis is returned to prison but dies before any further punishment can be carried out.

Dickens intended to tell a story of ingratitude and selflessness, social climbing, suffering, and retribution. It also touches on the topics of parenthood and the affect the actions of one generation will have on the next.

When Pip says that the mists were quite right too, he is suggesting that the dark and foggy weather matches the feelings of doubt, uncertainty, and confusion that he is experiencing within himself. It reflects the emotional and psychological turmoil he is going through at that moment.

Pip is giving money by a mysterious convict who later turns out to be Abel Magwith, who Pip later shares a coach with. Nonetheless, the convict fails to remember Pip and tells the other convicts that Pip was supposed to deliver the money to someone else.
