  Abstract:  Victorian Issues in Oliver Twist: A Jordanian Perspective. The purpose of this study is to explore an important topic in the Victorian novel from a Jordanian perspective: Dickens’s protest against the social conditions of his age and the moral codes which justified those conditions. In Oliver Twist Dickens describes children as the helpless victims of the new industrial world. He uses particular people and places as a context for his presentation of the “strange disease” of modern life.

Keywords: Victorian, children, exploitation, injustice, silence, silenced
