As the double of the aristocrat Charles Darnay, the Englishman sacrificed himself under the guillotine on behalf of his rival in love. It is not often realized that there is a peculiar and, in part, causal link between the country of New Zealand and the personality of this fictional hero. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Dickens Studies, v.2, p. 147-151 | Publisher: | AMS Press Inc | Place of Publication: | United States of America | ISSN: | 0419-1099 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 170104 Forensic Psychology 160204 Criminological Theories 160303 Migration |
