Pip's Portrait in Great Expectation

One of the most important and common tools that authors use to illustrate the themes of their works is a character that undergoes several major changes throughout history. In Great Expectations, Charles Dickens introduces the reader to many intriguing and memorable characters, including the eccentric recluse Miss Havisham, the shrewd and cautious lawyer Mr. Jaggers and the benevolent convict Abel Magwich. However, without a doubt, "Great Expectations" is the story of Pip, his initial dreams and the subsequent disappointments that eventually led to him becoming a truly good person. The significant changes that Pip's character goes through are very important for one of the novel's many themes. Dickens uses Pip's transformation from an innocent boy into an arrogant gentleman and his transformation into a good-natured man to illustrate the idea that unrealistic hopes and expectations can lead to undesirable character traits.
At the beginning of the novel, Pip is characterized as a harmless, caring boy who arouses great sympathy from the reader, although at the moment he is happy with his ordinary life. The reader most likely develops warm and sympathetic feelings for Pip only after the first two pages of the novel, which introduce the fact that Pip's parents are "dead and buried" and that the orphan has never seen "any resemblance to any of them." Pip's confrontation with the convict represents his harmless life. innocent nature. When Magwich grabs the boy for the first time, Pip simply replies, "Oh! Don't cut my throat, sir, "Please don't do this, sir." Pip is then forced to comply with the prisoner's demands, mainly due to his naive fear of Magwitch's fictional companion, who "has a secret way peculiar to him to get to the boy, and to his heart, and to his liver." Despite the fact that he helps the convict, the reader's sympathy for Pip soon increases, since the robbery of his own house puts a lot of pressure on his conscience. He seems to genuinely regret his actions and the fact that "he was too cowardly to avoid what I knew was wrong." About a year after his encounter with the convict, Pip is still an innocent, caring boy. One night, when Pip and Joe are alone in the blacksmith shop, Joe explains various reasons why he endures Mrs. Joe's constant bullying. After their conversation, Pip realizes that he cares deeply about Joe and appreciates everything the blacksmith does for him. In addition, he develops "a new admiration for Joe from that night" and "a new sense of awareness that deep down I was Joe's equal." Unfortunately, as Pip develops unrealistic hopes and expectations about his life, these positive characteristics are replaced by undesirable ones.
The expectations that make Pip's character less likable are those that develop in him after meeting Miss Havisham and Estelle. During his first visit to the house of Satis, Estella, who considers herself too refined and well-mannered to communicate with an ordinary boy, despises Pip. On the other hand, Pip seems to fall in love with Estelle during that first meeting. He even confesses to Miss Havisham that he considers her adopted daughter not only "very proud" and "very offensive", but also "very pretty" and that he should "want to see her again." After spending just one day in the house of Satis, Pip has a desire to become more acceptable to Estella in the hope that her callous attitude towards him will change. As a result, returning to the forge, Pip begins to be ashamed of his life. His mind is filled with regretful thoughts, such as "that I was an ordinary day laborer; that I had rough hands; that my shoes were thick; and in general, that I lived badly." Pip realizes that his personality and outlook on life are changing.
When his visits to the house of Satis stop and he becomes an apprentice to Joe, Pip becomes even more ashamed of his position in society, because he believes that this will destroy his hopes for Estella's love for him. He is constantly worried that Estelle will see him at an "unhappy hour" when he is "at his darkest and most ordinary," but he bears his shame with the irrational hope "that perhaps Miss Havisham was going to get rich when my time was up." Then, when Mr. Jaggers tells Pip about the "high hopes" that were placed on him, Pip, no doubt, thinks: "Miss Havisham was going to get rich on a grand scale." In addition, he begins to believe that Miss Havisham intended him to marry Estelle. Almost immediately, Pip's ego increases enormously, and he becomes arrogant, looking down on his "ordinary" but caring and loyal friends. For example, in a private conversation with Biddy, Pip tells his good friend that Joe is "pretty backward in some things. In addition, when Pip is finally ready to go to London, he tells Joe that he "wanted to leave all alone" because deep down he fears "the contrast that would be between me and Joe."
As the arrogant and ungrateful Pip continues to believe that Miss Havisham chose him as the recipient of her money and, hopefully, Estelle's hand, he also continues to be ashamed of his past life and look down on her. One day Pip gets the news that Joe is coming to London and would like to see him. However, Pip was not happy about this news at all. In fact, he anticipates Joe's visit "with considerable anxiety, some sense of humiliation and a keen sense of incongruity," and he states that he would "certainly pay money" to keep Joe away. Pip was distraught at the prospect that others, especially Bentley Drumml, would see him with an ordinary blacksmith. After Joe leaves, Pip decides that he should return to the blacksmith shop, but the next day he decides to stay at the Blue Boar Inn instead of his old house. His snobbish reasoning is simple: "I'd be a nuisance at Joe's; I wouldn't be expected, and my bed wouldn't be ready." Then Pip is so preoccupied with winning Estella's favor that he visits Miss Havisham's house and returns to London, never stopping by the blacksmith shop.⁹
The negative attitudes and character traits that Pip develops as a result of his unrealistic expectations are portrayed in other ways than his view of his past life. In London, living as a "gentleman", Pip is having difficulties with his new lifestyle. While having dinner with other gentlemen, Pip has an irrational confrontation with his nemesis Drummle. After Drummle offers a toast to Estelle, who allowed the "Spider" to get attached to her, Pip loses control of his emotions and accuses him of lying. Drumml can then provide evidence that he has danced with Estelle several times, and Pip is forced to apologize for his outrageous actions. However, she and Drummle sit "snorting at each other for an hour" because Pip "can't stand the thought of her leaning over that dog." For many years Pip believed that he and Estella were destined to get married, but now his hopes and aspirations are just beginning to fade.
When Pip finally finds out that his benefactor is Abel Magwitch, and not Miss Havisham, his unrealistic expectations are shattered, and his truly good-natured character begins to overcome the negative traits that he has developed. In addition, he understands that he himself was to blame for his unrealistic hopes. During a visit to the Satis house, Pip does not feel any harsh feelings towards Miss Havisham because of the misfortunes of his life. He refuses her offer to financially compensate him for his unhappy life, and instead asks her to help Herbert in his business. Then he admits that he can forgive her. Later, Pip returns to Miss Havisham's room to check on her and discovers that she was too close to the fire as her old clothes caught fire. Pip immediately risks his own life to save the old woman. She gets serious burns and nerve damage, but remains alive. Pip is also seriously burned.
Pip's positive qualities are also evident in his treatment of his benefactor, the imprisoned Magwitch. At first, after this revelation, Pip's reaction was shock, disbelief and even disgust. However, he understands and to some extent appreciates that Magwich tried to thank him a lot for the almost negligible help that Pip provided to the convict as a child. Over time, Pip's dislike for his benefactor fades, and at some point he admits that Magwich "relented inexplicably, because I couldn't say how, and I could never remember how afterwards, when I tried, but definitely." As he did in rescuing Miss Havisham, Pip exposes himself to great personal risk and inconvenience in order to save Magwitch. He fails to escape the country with Magwich, but his care and devotion to the good prisoner are unshakable, even though he will not receive any money after Magwich's death. Every day Pip visits him in the infirmary, trying to comfort Magwitch and make the prisoner's last days as calm as possible. Pip finds his visits somewhat cheering Magwitch up, and he goes to the infirmary every day until the prisoner dies peacefully, which is almost a blessing.
Just as Pip's feelings for Magwich soften, so does his attitude towards his former life after the burden of his expectations is lifted. Shortly after Magwitch's death, Pip becomes seriously ill. When he comes to, he finds out that Joe went to London to take care of him. While continuing to court Pip, Joe remains formal and awkward around Pip, as he behaved during Pip's visit to London a few years earlier. On the other hand, it begins to seem to Pip that he has never left the forge. When Joe unexpectedly leaves London to return to the forge, Pip follows him as soon as he has a physical opportunity. In the forge, Pip no longer shows any feelings of shame or arrogance, because now he is happy and cheerful in his former surroundings.
The main character of the "Great Expectation" Philip Pirrip, better known as Pip, is a reflection of the social stratum of society at that time. Pip is described as a young child who came from Kent, England. He lives with Mrs. Joe Gargari, his sister, who is described as a bad woman, and Joe is a blacksmith who always protects Pip. Pipa's family belongs to the lower strata of society who live far from the city. Pip's ambitions changed: he stopped being a blacksmith, like Joe, and began to strive to become a gentleman. In this case, a gentleman is a person of high social status living in luxury. On his arrival at Satis House, he met Estella, Miss Havisham's adopted son, who had abandoned his ambition to become a gentleman. Pip's desire to be a gentleman, to be on an equal footing with Estelle, represented a social divide at the time. The working class lifestyle was described by Estelle as "casual" when asked to describe Pip. Estella insulted Pip's social status with her lifestyle and clothes.
Pip's desire to be a gentleman, to be on an equal footing with Estelle, represented a social divide at the time. The working class lifestyle was described by Estelle as "casual" when asked to describe Pip. Estella insulted Pip's social status with her lifestyle and clothes. Clothing can be used as a marker when it acts as a fabric covering the body. However, then it can be interpreted as a sign when it conveys the meaning of the one who uses it.
From the translation of the insults that Estella said to Pip, it can be explained that the style of clothing can indicate a person's social status. Clothing and fashion are often used to demonstrate social status, and people often make judgments about people based on what they wear. Conveying individuality means showing others how we behave and how others should treat us. Many nonverbal messages are conveyed through clothing and other artifacts. Jewelry, facial cosmetics, buttons, stationery used, driven cars, occupied houses, home furnishings and how it is arranged, the size and location of the office, and, in fact, almost every object associated with people also carries meaning. Both Pierre Cardin and Rolex watches provide information about the same and correct time, but both report different things about dresses.
Danesi also expresses this by saying that clothes can be fashionable, fashion itself is a kind of macro-dress code that sets style standards according to age, gender, social class, and so on. The clothes we wear are a powerful statement that can reveal who we are. Clothing in the sphere of personal or social ideology formation is a stylish dimension. This style of command and guidance is often interpreted as an attempt to express the desire and recognition of identity in the context of social life. Uncontrolled self-expression in style encourages some people to limit themselves to clothes that are comfortable and appropriate, or not to be shown to the general public, at least to the social community. This restriction of the style of clothing, which is often seen as an irregularity, is accepted and fixed in certain cultures.
At the end of "Great Expectations", the reader is likely to find the fate of Pip acceptable and pleasant. Earlier in his life, he turned from an innocent, caring boy into an arrogant young man as a result of his unrealistic hopes and expectations. However, when these expectations come to an end, his undesirable features disappear, because he turns out to be a truly good-natured person. So it's fitting that in both of Dickens' final episodes, Pip is happy and content with his life.
