The diploma thesis presents Charles Dickens not only as one of the most popular Victorian writers but it also concentrates on Dickens´ description and characterization of a place and surroundings in the novels Oliver Twist, David Copperfield and Great Expectations. In the introductory part the thesis characterizes Victorian England and its social and cultural aspects. The core of the thesis is Dickens´ portrayal of London in contrast with the country environment in the selected novels. The diploma thesis tries to express Dickens´ literary evolution from the point of view of the description of the surroundings and landscape; alternatively it traces romantic features of his writings.
