A revelation by which men are to guide themselves : Dickens and Christian theology -- The debilitated old house in the city : London as haunted house -- A great (and dirty) city : London's dirtand the terrors of obscurity -- Angel and Devil by turns : the detective figure in Bleak House -- Aroad of ashes : London's railways and the Providential timetable -- The secrets of the river : the Thames within London -- A dream of demon heads and savage eyes : the metropolitan crowd.

Dickens was no theologian. His direct statements on religion can only take us so far. His task of representing London in words, however, led him grapple with Christianity imaginatively and at amuch deeper level. This new book shows how Dickens's London draws upon various forms ofsymbolism andsecular discursive practices and brings them into tense dialogue. Taking its cue from criticism ofT.S. Eliot's The Waste Land, it focuses on how traditional religious symbolism fares when it is brought into dialogue with its counterparts in metropolitan reality. A picture emerges of Dickens's London as a melting pot of images created byneeds both within and outside the story that provides an insight into how relevant Dickens could be in the metropolitan age.
