At this stage Dickens believed that all the evils of the capitalist world would be remedied if only men treated each other with kindliness, justice, and sympathetic understanding. Dickens thought that the whole social question would be solved if only every employer reformed himself according to the model set by the benevolent gentlemen in his novels. This naive optimism is characteristic of the petty-bourgeois humanitarians of his time. works 1) Sketches by Boz (1836) ?博兹特写集? 2) T
