The dandy was an elusive cultural icon which found expression
in many literary works and attracted the attention of prominent
cultural critics. The general undiscerning assumption was that the
dandy was merely a man interested in clothes and matte
rs of style.
A more discriminating examination of the dandy figure reveals,
however, that he was much more sophisticated than this assumption
makes him to be. This paper examines the nineteenth-century
theoretical debate about the dandy in the works of Charles
Baudelaire and Thomas Carlyle, particularly in Carlyle’s book
Sartor Resartus and then proceeds to study the presentation of the
dandy figure in two novels by Charles Dickens, Hard Times and
Bleak House, and Edward Bulwer-Lytton’s Pelham.
The description of place in the novel, Beautiful Damascus, is
associated with its creator’s cultural dimension, so he impregnates it
with his thoughts and aspirations. Place description is one based
upon interpretation. He did not describe geograp
hical places in
particular, but he intended to form them in an artistic manner which
serves his ideas. He also described place both accurately and in
accordance with the novel’s characters’ activities within that place.
Place description is linked to colour so that it can reveal their
psychological situations. He also described non-visible place
because he felt that eyesight is not alone capable of description in a
perfect way.

substitution.
This paper seeks to stress that Marlowe's Edward II is, at bottom, a tragic
story or a personal history of its hero's agonies. Therefore, it starts by
considering the dramatic genre of the chronicle play, and shows that
studying Edward II as a tra
ditional history play does not penetrate into its
design and operation. Then the paper moves to emphasize that Mortimer's
rebellion and punishment fit didactic history drama. This leads us to
explore Edward's continual endeavors to write his agonies in the form of
a tale or tragedy.
