First published in 1854 by Bradbury and Evans, Charles Dickens’s Hard Times offers a stark examination of the dehumanizing effects of industrialization in mid-19th-century England. Through the fictional setting of Coketown, the narrative critiques the rigid utilitarian philosophy of the era and the resulting social stratification that defined the Victorian industrial landscape.
