CHAPTER II. INDIRECT CHARACTERIZATION
2.1. Speech and dialogue In «The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club», speech is used as a reflection of character, providing insights into the personalities, backgrounds, and motivations of the novel’s many characters. Through their speech patterns, we can gain a deeper understanding of their inner workings and motivations, and how they relate to the overall themes of the novel. One example of this is the character of Mr. Jingle, who is known for his fast and erratic speech. His speech reflects his unpredictable nature and his tendency to deceive and manipulate others. He speaks in a disjointed and rapid-fire manner, jumping from one topic to another and making quick and witty observations. This speech pattern reveals that Mr. Jingle is a slippery character, always on the move and never staying in one place for long. His speech is also indicative of his tendency to lie and mislead others, using his charm and wit to get what he wants. 12 On the other hand, the character of Mr. Pickwick speaks in a slow and deliberate manner, reflecting his calm and rational nature, as well as his desire for order and stability. He speaks in a measured and thoughtful tone, taking the time to carefully consider his words before speaking. This speech pattern reveals that Mr. Pickwick is a man of intelligence and wisdom, who values reason and logic above all else. His speech is also indicative of his desire to maintain a sense of order and control in his life, and to avoid the chaos and unpredictability that often accompanies the actions of others. Through the use of speech as a reflection of character, Dickens is able to create a rich and diverse cast of characters, each with their own unique personalities and quirks.

Overall, speech as a reflection of character is 12 Galperin, William H.

Sam speaks in a distinct Cockney accent and uses slang and idiomatic expressions. His speech reflects his lower social status and his lack of formal education. However, Sam is also clever and resourceful, and his use of language demonstrates his quick wit and ability to think on his feet. Sam’s speech endears him to the reader and makes him one of the most memorable characters in the novel.

Her speech is full of pretentious expressions and over-the-top compliments, revealing her desperate desire to be accepted by the upper classes.
