This paper examines Dickens' view of nature. Although it is generally believed that his novels describe the city of London rather than nature, they are actually deeply concerned with nature. Indeed, Dickens represents nature in a manner that reminds us of William Wordsworth, the poet of nature. I explore Dickens' view of nature by analyzing how he portrays landscape because he depicts nature through landscape. By examining three of his novels, Bleak House, Great Expectations, and George Silverman's Explanation, I argue that the communion between the human soul and nature is one of the most important themes that recur in Dickens' works. I also shed light on the gradual change of his view of nature in the course of his career as a novelist.
