This work explores Dickens’s perception of Italy as it appears in the travel book Pictures from Italy. Corpus methodologies, alongside the notion of intersectionality, display the writer’s multi-faceted interpretation of the Italians and his efforts to highlight their multidimensionality and heterogeneity. The book debates that Pictures from Italy departs from conventions – it investigates the function of travel in the construction of Italian identity and discusses Dickens’s relationship with Italy. Corpus linguistics methodologies analyse the language of the book and shed newlight on the relationship between body language and culture.

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-Pictures from Italy by Charles Dickens. It is a travel notebook by Charles Dickens, written in 1846. The book reveals its author's concerns by presenting, according to Kate Flint, the country "as a chaotic spectacle of magic lanterns, fascinated by the spectacle it offers, and only as a spectator "In 1844, Dickens took a break from writing novels and for several months traveled around France and Italy with his family. They visited the most famous places: Genoa, Rome, Naples (with Vesuvius still burning), Florence and Venice. In his travel diary, the author portrays a nation of great contrasts: grandiose buildings and urban desolation, and daily life alongside ancient monuments. But it is his encounters with Italy's colorful street life that capture the imagination.Dickens is of particular interest in the costumes, cross-dressing, and exuberance of the Roman carnival. From the book we learn that Dickens was an early riser and early walker, and enjoyed walking the main attractions on foot.
