Is Gradgrind Flat or Round
Captions available
The idea
On the evidence of these two chapters he is flat: one trait, fully accounting for him, with no interior shown. Whether he is static is a separate question these pages cannot answer, and keeping the two apart is exactly what entry 1013 was for.
In practice
Flat here; static is unknown.
Where people slip
The passage answers one axis only.
