This can be seen when Pip says to Joe, “I wish you hadn’t taught me to call knaves at cards, Jacks.” This shows us that Pip is trying to gain entry into the higher order and he punishes Joe for not teaching him correctly by telling him this, which would undeniably hurt his feelings. Once Pip turns into a man who is looking to climb the social ladder and be rich, he loses his admiration for Joe as a good man because he is not rich and he does not have the etiquette to be in the higher orders. This is why in the book Pip can relate to Joe better, but this is not always the case. Because of all of this, Pip saw Joe as a “sweet tempered, easy going, good natured, foolish dear fellow”.Īs Pip sees his elder sister treating Joe as she does him, he doesn’t see him as a father figure but more as a friend and a larger species of child who is also suffering and is being treated the same way as he is. This meant that in this book he was a moral compass, pointing true north and is a constant that doesn’t change in the whole story. In this book Joe was probably the single person who was honest, calm and sincere. This made him look like a child in Pip’s eyes and he treated Joe as a larger species of child. Yet his father and his wife, the same as what happened to Pip, hit him. As his father beat him when he was a child, he wanted to be a good influence on Pip and treat him well, the contrary of what his father did for him. He is a mild-mannered person who is considerate and tolerant. Unlike most people Joe doesn’t care about the richer or the higher orders.

Joe is a simple man, an uneducated man he isn’t the cleverest person, the richest person or even on the social ladder.

As he is an orphan, his elder sister takes care of him with the aid of Joe Gargery, her husband who is a blacksmith. He spends some of his time around his dead mother and numerous brothers in the graveyard. Putin’s action happened just hours after the Biden administration declared a national emergency on Thursday, slapping sanctions on more than three dozen people in Russia and expelling 10 diplomats.Pip when we first see him in the book is made out to be a small, feeble eleven-year old boy who is an orphan and lives with his elder sister, Mrs. We can and think we can avoid that,” the official said. “We have no desire to be in an escalating war with Russia,” the Daily Mail quoted a senior administration official as saying, who added that the White House doesn’t want things “spinning out of control.” Russian President Vladimir Putin, bottom, and President Joe Biden, are in the midst of sanctions tensions. The Biden administration pulled back the two destroyers from steaming into the Black Sea after fighting intensified between Ukrainian and Russian-backed separatist forces in an effort to de-escalate the situation, Politico reported. The US and its allies slapped sanctions on Putin for illegally annexing Crimea in 2014.

Putin will close the Kerch Strait beginning next week until October, blocking foreign warships that are conducting military exercises, including the US, the Ukraine foreign ministry said Thursday. The action comes as Russia warned the US on Tuesday to stay away from the area “for their own good” after the Biden administration said it was going to send two destroyers - the USS Roosevelt and the USS Donald Cook - to the Black Sea in response to Moscow’s increasing military presence near Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin took advantage of the Biden administration’s decision to abandon plans to send two destroyers to the Black Sea by closing off the Kerch Strait, connecting Crimea to Russia, to foreign warships until next fall.
