On Using the Notes

These Notes are not intended to be a substitute for attentive reading of a novel. But intelligent use of the Notes will help the reader in reviewing Oliver Twist and in enhancing his reading enjoyment and mastery of the book.

In approaching a novelespecially a long and involved onethe student is confronted by a particular challenge. Because of length and complexity it is impossible for even the most accomplished reader to retain the details clearly in his mind, so as to regard the work as a unified whole. With other works of art, the endeavor is not quite so formidable. A painting may be viewed as a whole, with the interrelationships of its various elements evident to the sensitive beholder. The same is true of briefer literary works. A short poem and even a drama can also be contemplated as an entity constructed of parts that each contribute to the overall unity.

The principle of unity is one thing that we look for in every well executed artistic work, in the novel no less than in other forms. Every feature of a novelincluding story, setting, plot, character, ideascombine to create the effect for which the author is striving. It is the purpose of these Notes to help you discover the important things and to observe how they contribute to the writer's achievement.

Just as the Notes are no substitute for reading the original, neither can they take the place of repeated readings. The more times that you read a book the closer you come to acquiring a comprehensive grasp of the work in its entirely. As you go over familiar territory, the effort required of the mind in the initial reading is greatly reduced, and attention is liberated to rove about, noting significant details disregarded at first. Thus both pleasure and understanding are augmented. Often it is advisable to undertake separate readings to study specific characteristics. By so doing, one ultimately develops the faculty of reading on several levels simultaneously.
