	Bleak House - Open Encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Bleak House is the ninth novel by Charles Dickens, published in 20 monthly parts from March, 1852 through September, 1853.
		His harsh characterization of the slow, arcane Chancery law process gave voice to widespread frustration with the system, helping to set the stage for its eventual reform in the 1870s.
		The scope is probably the broadest Dickens ever attempted, ranging from the filthy slums to the landed aristocracy, in a narrative that is in equal parts satire and comedy.

		Bleak would be better off leaving politics to the politicians, to the tyranny of the majority, to mob rule, to temporary hysterias, and to persons who read books for a living.

		The range and complexity of emblematic representation of the novel's themes are considerable in the Bleak House cover, and it should be remembered that the novel's original readers were confronted with this design -- and thus were confronted with a visual summary of the novel's thematic concerns -- once a month for nineteen successive months.
		In this regard the plate is reminiscent of the Bleak House cover, in which all of society is in danger of being brought down by the weight of Chancery.
		On the other hand, definite lapses of technique are in evidence in some of the conventional plates, and seven of the eight dark plates occur in the first half of the novel; not one of the eight includes a single emblematic detail, consistent with a general reduction in Browne's use of such conceptual techniques.
