摘要：

查尔斯·狄更斯被公认为维多利亚时代的卓越的现实主义小说家,是世界文学中的一个杰出人物。

只有莎士比亚、马克吐温、也许还有简·奥斯汀，在吸引学术界和大众的注意力方面的能力，能和他相媲美。

《雾都孤儿》是狄更斯第一部精心创作的小说。

本文通过对《雾都孤儿》的分析，讨论了狄更斯的写作风格和语言特色。

他以第三人称全知视角，描述了19世纪的英国下层人民生活的各种场景。

在这部小说中，他以丰富的想象力在情节中设计了无数的巧合，这些巧合反映了狄更斯是一个具有乐观主义和浪漫主义情怀的人文主义者，他认为“善有善报，恶有恶报”。

与此同时狄更斯擅长人物塑造，譬如最具特色的人物是奥利弗·退斯特。

狄更斯同时以描写恐怖和奇异的人物著称。

他把典型人物置于典型的环境中，从而使故事情节复杂，离奇又令人兴奋。

狄更斯是一个语言天才，他运用了各种艺术手段，使语言独具特色。

特别是通过令人莞尔的幽默和辛酸的讽刺，叫人“含着泪水微笑”，并让你在“笑”的深处寻找到一种哲理的思索，淡淡的无奈和切实的忧伤，心灵随之得到充实和净化。

关键词：

现实主义的;巧合;幽默
