She is the biological daughter of Abel Magwitch, a convicted criminal, which in the Victorian era, would have depicted her as being in the very lowest level of society, even lower than Pip. However, at the age of three, she was adopted, by Ms. Havisham, a wealthy, bitter and vengeful woman, having being jilted at her wedding. Despite, the idea heroine in a Bildungsroman being described as soft, caring and feminine, Estella is described as being cold and distant. Estella believed

Estella may be beautiful, but she's as chilly as Frozone, freezing the hearts of everyone around her—including her adopted mom, Miss Havisham. She's "proud and refined" as an adult, and "beautiful and self-possessed" as a child", and for some reason Pip falls desperately in love with her, even though she's really, really rude. But we can't hate Estella, either. Can you imagine living in Satis House with a mother who wears her wedding dress everyday and who only cares that you grow up to break boys'

Expectations by Charles Dickens, Estella is raised to be hateful to all men and to break their hearts. While being raised by her adoptive mother Miss Havisham, Estella never receives any love. It is because of this that she claims she isn’t capable of loving someone else. Throughout Great Expectations, Estella is very rude, deceptive, and proud. Estella shows multiple examples of her rudeness throughout Charles Dickens’ book. For example, when Miss Havisham tells Estella to play cards with Pip, she

Estella is the stimulation or catalyst that causes, Pip formally known as Phillip Pirrip, the main character to care about social status and causes his attitude to change. In Great Expectations, Estella is described as "proud and refine"(285) and is seen as a cold creature through the indoctrinate of her mother, to avenge all men.

In this case, Mrs. Havisham loves Estella, and wishes that she finds love; whereas the latter quote presents itself as a moment where Pip expresses his love and devotion towards Estella. Therefore, it is quite obvious to the viewer that there is a teeming amount of love revolving around Estella; though, Estella does

one-step at a time into his great expectations, he encounters a young lady named Estella Havisham. Adopted by Miss. Havisham, Estella Havisham tends to reject the action of love to anyone who offers it. Pip, on the other hand, fancies Estella and will never fail to recall the

In the coming of age novel Great Expectations by Charles Dickens, Pip and Estella are both puppets and prisoners under similar situations with contrasting intentions and origins. Estella is just a baby girl when her parents get into a fight and her mother threatens to murder her. She is taken away from her parents, leaving her father to believe she is dead, and given to Miss Havisham; a woman whose heart becomes shattered by a man from which she becomes obsessed over. Pip is a small boy whose family

Our first meeting with Estella takes place in chapter eight. During this chapter, Dickens uses Estella to exemplify class differences and the contrast between her and Pip . During their first meeting, Estella often patronises Pip, commenting on his 'coarse hands' and 'thick boots'. These phrases show that Estella is psychologically harming Pip by breaking his heart, (the effects of this can be seen when Pip starts harming himself later when out of sight.)
