What kind of training is mr.pocket to give pip




















How delightful! Wemmick shows Pip the jewels that these criminals gave him on the eve of their deaths. Apparently, the criminals in London really like to suck up to Wemmick and to give him all kinds of cool trinkets. Wemmick is an advocate of "portable property" So, no 54" inch TVs for this guy—it's all microchips and minidisk players.

Wemmick tells Pip he's welcome to come have dinner at his house whenever. He warns Pip that Jaggers will be inviting him to his place soon too. While Jaggers will provide delicious wine, his maid, Molly, is a little strange—so keep an eye on her. Finally, the two boys head over to the courthouse to see Mr.

Jaggers in action. Everyone in court is scared stiff. He's a powerful man. Jaggers Mr. Wopsle Mr. Tired of ads? Join today and never see them again. Get started. He now works tutoring young men and doing some literary editing. The other two men studying with Mr.

Pocket are Bentley Drummle and Startop. Dinner reveals the interactions in the household, which is general chaos, and Pip decides to split his time between the Pockets' Hammersmith home and Herbert's flat. Pip takes up rowing on the Thames with the other gentlemen in the house. He finds Startop to be a bright lively fellow, if a bit effeminate, and Drummle to be rather distasteful. Pocket tells Pip that he is not destined for training in any profession, but is to be educated to hold his own in the company of prosperous young men.

A visit to Jaggers' office for money introduces Pip to Jaggers' way of dealing with people. Wemmick tells Pip that the two plaster face casts in the office are of former clients of Jaggers, made after they were hanged. Wemmick points out that his rings are gifts from former clients, also deceased, who gave them to Wemmick to remember them by. He considers them "portable property.

The housekeeper is described as "a wild beast tamed. Pip dines with Wemmick one evening at his Walworth home, where he meets Wemmick's father, referred to as the Aged Parent. He also meets a totally different Wemmick. At his home, the law clerk is gentle with his father, open, caring and warm — the opposite of his law-office demeanor. Wemmick's home is his castle, complete with a moat, a bridge, a turret, and a cannon to fire every night at nine o'clock.

He has his own garden, a pig, and some rabbits and chickens, and continues to invent and improve on devices in his home and yard. Pip learns that Wemmick keeps the two parts of his life very separate.
