| Research Abstract |
With the works of Dickens, Gaskell, and Gissing as its primary source materials, this research addressed the issue of bullying explicitly/implicitly described in them. By so doing, it established the verbal and behavioral patterns of bullying influenced by the Victorian mindset and clarified the way in which the social and psychological contexts of the age sustained bullying.
