Abstract
In the Dickensian novel “Great Expectations” (1861), characters pursue various aims and typically achieve both gains and losses through their efforts. This research will textually examine their struggles in order to better comprehend the difficulties Pip and other significant characters have as they (re)construct their (self)identities, seek their ambitions, and either ascend to or preserve their social status. The analysis illustrates how characters struggle for existence both psychologically and physically: one’s struggle, at times, equals a coming of age. According to the study’s findings, the novel’s characters re-imagine their convictions as reality changes their prior ideals.
