Abstract: A Tale of Two Cities is a masterpiece of the English novelist Charles Dickens. In the novel, he expresses his humanitatianism by commending kindness and integrity and opposing the aristocrats who tyrannized over the public; at the same time he disaffirms avengers to resort violent means. This paper aims to interpret Dickens’s humanitatianism from his attitude to French Revolution and description of the important characters in the novel.
