- In this video, we are discussing the iconic novel, Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. At first, we are going to take a look at the important characters of the novel. Then we will discuss the Great Expectations summary and follow it by Great Expectations themes analysis.
Great Expectations Summary and analysis will help you understand the novel in a simple way. It was published in 1861 by Chapman and Hall in 3 Volumes.
Charles Dickens Great Expectations is a bildungsroman novel that focuses on the moral, educational and psychological growth of Pip.
Pip Estella relationship forms a driving force in Pip's aspirations of being a gentleman. In Great Expectations, Pip meets Estella in the Satis House and wants to be worthy of her. He feels ashamed of his low social situation. Miss Havisham in Great Expectations plays the catalyst in igniting Pip's feelings for Estella because she wants to take revenge against men by making Estella break their hearts.
In Great Expectations, Pip and Estella share a very disharmonious relationship with the former pursuing the girl relentlessly and the latter ignoring and hurting Pip endlessly.
In Great Expectations, there are 2 Pip and Estella ending. In the earlier ending, Estella remarries and Pip stays single. In the revised ending, it is hinted that Pip and Estella might get married.
After discussing the Great Expectations by Charles Dickens Summary in detail, we discuss the 2 important Great Expectations themes - social class & Ambition and Self Improvement.

Hey! This is a really good video, and really useful in a lot of ways. I just wanted to say one thing to clarify... i could be wrong but I feel like ‘social class’, ‘ambition’ etc... aren’t actually themes. You have them listed as such, aren’t they subjects, not themes? I feel like you state one of the central themes in the next frame. It has to do with social class, yes, in this case the idea “Pip realizes wealth and class are less important than affection, loyalty and inner worth“... you stated it perfectly and I feel like that would be the theme rather than just flat out social class. I wasn’t sure, and it was sort of gnawing at the back of my mind. A theme as I understand it can be characterized almost like a thesis statement; usually a declarative statement in the sense that the writer is sort of trying to convince the reader of it throughout the story. Generally it’s flipped on its head in the beginning. Like, for instants, if the theme were say... ‘honesty is more important than success... ‘you would have a character that likely believes the opposite in the beginning to give them a chance to grow. In pips Case he starts his adult life believing he has to achieve the status of a gentleman in order to be worthy of love, but in the end he realizes status is worthless without Love, loyalty and inner worth.
