The story opens in a dreary classroom run by Thomas Gradgrind, a wealthy, retired merchant and a fanatical believer in utilitarianism and empirical data. He believes that children should be taught strictly through cold facts, rejecting poetry, wonder, fancy, and emotion. He raises his own two eldest children, Louisa and Tom, under this merciless philosophical system.
