Topic 7.9
How does Charles Dickens' A Tale Of Two Cities reveal limitations concerning its utility as a historical source about French Revolution?
Its language is complex which makes it inaccessible to some readers.
As a work of fiction, it may dramatize or romanticize certain elements for narrative purposes.
Its length restricts the depth of historical context provided.
Dickens was British and not French, hence his viewpoint is inherently skewed.
