Charles Dickens is credited with creating some of the world's best-known fictional characters, and is widely regarded as the greatest novelist of the Victorian age. Even before reading the works of Dickens many people have met him already in some form or another.

His portrait is present on British ten-pound notes; he is a national icon, indeed himself a generator of what Englishness signifies.
