realize the problems they have caused. Similar
symbolism is found in the conviction and lonely
death of Fagin. Here the reader is reminded that
the wealthy are only a trial away from ending up
in the dirt themselves, and in fact are already
dirty with guilt. Therefore, Fagin represents the
unfeeling system that dances and jokes around the
misery of others. He also represents the
underworld itself. This is the opposite of power
and the home of the under...

According to Aldous Huxley, the life of any epoch
can only be synthesised by poets: Encyclopaedias
