A 5 page paper on the changing face of London street life as seen in Samuel Pepys' Diary, written in the 1660s, and Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist, published in 1837. The paper shows how in Pepys' time the poor simply seemed to be people with less money than the rich, but in Dickens' time the violent cleavage between classes rendered the poor almost subhuman in society's eyes. The streets of London, predictably, reflected this change -- and suffered for it. Bibliography lists four sources.
