In Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities‚ the peasantry of Paris is transformed into a vicious ochlocracy by the Revolution they spark.

The reasons why I believe that our era is also an era of paradox is that we have more‚ but are grateful less; we have more knowledge‚ but less judgment; and we

While Dickens clearly supports the peasants’ fight against oppression‚ his tone suggests that he is opposed to the methods that they use to achieve their goals. As the mob storms the Bastille prison‚ Dickens writes that “every living creature there held life as of no account‚ and was demented with a passionate readiness
