Abstract
Hard Times was written by Dickens in 1854, who is one of the most representative realistic writers. In this novel, Sleary is the leader of the circus and one of the minor characters in this novel. Viewed from the language representation, Dickens gives this minor character distinct language style. Based on his peculiar phonetics, syntax and grammar, the paper tries to analyze Sleary’s mind style from the cognitive perception by using foregrounding theory, one of the cognitive approaches.
