  1. Of or relating to Oliver Twist (from the 1838 novel by Charles Dickens), a mistreated orphan who scandalizes the workhouse by daring to ask for more food.

Esimerkit

  • It's the kind of Oliver Twistian advice given frequently to blacks deemed middle class: be grateful for the gruel because children are starving in the inner cities.
  • Worst of all, it was the parents of children who learned easily who supported this behavior. They should have known that treating children in a Twistian manner was bound to have negative effects.
  • Thus, the Twistian workhouse is a symptom, not a cause, and Dickens's interest in it is subordinate to a full-scale social critique.
