Charles Dickens’ choice of names for his character shows his motive to express about the nature and personality of them through it. Through such names he wanted his readers to build in their subconscious mind about the character and what his/her actions would be in the story.

Dickens named ‘Compeyson’ which comes from a French word which means ‘companion.’ This word tells about the character ‘Compeyson’ and his role in the story as he was the partner of Magwitch. Also he preyed on people who were weaker than him.

What is the purpose of an antagoinist in a story. Please help if you can! <br> ~Real
zhenek [66]

The purpose of an antagonist in the story is to hinder the main character(s) from achieving their goal. The antagonist does not always have to be the main villain, but just has evil intentions to the main characters. A perfect example of this (in my opinion) would be Boba Fett from<em> The Empire Strikes Back</em>, he was not the main villain, but was hired by the main villain of the original trilogy to stop the main group from achieving their goals, and did have evil intentions towards them.
