Delightful Dickens: Some Tributes

Synopsis

It is a multi-media dialogue with a versatile writer who interrogated the very youthful narrative of industrial progress and material mindset of a conquering age that went on to leave its footprints on the sands of time in an indelible way. The imperialism that conquered one third of the world for the British Crown and its moral effect on the Anglo-Saxon culture and civilization has been subsequently examined by other writers and critics as well. But the towering figure of Dickens overshadows them even today. In this anthology some of the important artists engage with the writer embedded firmly in the Victorian age, yet artistically transcending its spatial temporal barriers through his progressive but highly penetrating artistic gaze that exposes the claims of material progress as a shameful lie if it excludes a majority from such a progress and simultaneously impoverishes the human soul in its relentless obsession with profits.
