A Christmas Carol

He felt for his old uncle and as this was his only relative he wanted to wish him health at that time of year

The were horrible places. The work house was an institution which people who were so poor and unable to live would apply to for shelter and food. Upon entering the workhouse, the poor were stripped and bathed (under supervision).The food was tasteless and was the same day after day.

The young and old as well as men and women were made to work hard, often doing unpleasant jobs. Children could also find themselves 'hired out' (sold) to work in factories or mines. This was something that appalled Dickens and why he makes mention of these places.

No, but the year after he played Fagin (1968) in Oliver!he played Uriah Heep in David Copperfield (1969). Those are the only Dickens portrayals on his filmography.

It was his belief as it was of many of those ignorant of what was actually happening around them that the poor were lazy and idle, they didn't want work. This was of course untrue. Work was scarce and many factory and mine owners employed children in jobs that adults should have had because they "cost less". Dickens was fighting this issue within the book itself

Scrooge destroyed his own happiness by prioritizing money and material wealth above all else, neglecting relationships and compassion towards others. His greed and isolation from the world led to a life devoid of joy and fulfillment, trapping him in a cycle of bitterness and regret.

The rising action of "A Christmas Carol" includes when Scrooge is visited by the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come, and he learns about the consequences of his actions. As he experiences these visions, Scrooge begins to reflect on his life and starts to change his ways.

No, Boris Karloff did not play Scrooge in a movie. The iconic character of Scrooge in "A Christmas Carol" was portrayed by actors like Alastair Sim, George C. Scott, and Seymour Hicks. Boris Karloff was well-known for his roles in horror films, particularly for his portrayal of Frankenstein's monster.

The most obvious reason Scrooge likes the darkness is because it saves him money on having to buy candles, and Dickens spares no expense in letting the reader know that Scrooge is a miser, for he tells us that Scrooge is " a tight-fisted hand at the grindstone,. . . a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous old sinner." All of these adjectives allude to Scrooge's relentless miserly love for money.

However, one could argue that Scrooge likes the darkness because darkness represents evil, and Scrooge is characterized as evil in "Stave I," for many times Dickens tells us that Scrooge "growls" his responses suggesting that he is some sort of creature; another example is found when Dickens describes a blind man's dog pulling his master into a doorway to avoid contact with Scrooge and wagging its tail as if to say that "no eye at all is better than an evil eye, dark master." The "evil eye" being Scrooge's.

In Charles Dickens' novel "A Christmas Carol," the Cratchit family's address is not specified. They reside in a modest home in a poor London neighborhood.

He learns that the spirit of christmas, the attitude between people who wish each other peace at that time, the charitable things that people do are not just for christmas but for the whole year. He finds that no matter what you have experienced in the past you can make changes if even small one for the future and the future of others and of course money is not the answer to happiness.

The first ghost represents "The Ghost of Christmas Past" The first ghost is like a child and not a child dressed in a white robe. This represents innocence and purity (as children are)

The second ghost represents "The Ghost of Christmas Present"

This ghost is dressed in a green robe with white fur, and a holly wreath and he comes with a scabbard with no sword and with a huge feast. This ghost seems more jovial and kingly. He represents generosity and plenty. He also represents power (the wreath and robes) but at the same time peace (no sword in his scabbard)

The third ghost represents "The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come" He appears in a black hooded cloak and the only feature that is visible is a long bony arm. This ghost represents death as he appears like the grim reaper. He has no defining features other than his arm which may mean that just like the future, it is not defined.

A Christmas Carol was written by Charles Dickens and first published in 1843. The phantoms in the story are upset because they can't help the people they are showing to Ebenezer Scrooge, but wish that they could.

The songs in A Christmas Carol are typically sung by the characters in the musical adaptation of the story. The specific singers can vary depending on the production or recording, but the characters such as Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, and others typically perform the songs.

There is Cornhill, where Bob Crachit slides 20 times in honor of it being Christmas. And there is Bayham Street which is where the Crachit's are believed to live, but does not appear in the original book.

The Ghost of Christmas Present takes Scrooge on a trip over the city and to the festive home of his clerk, Bob Cratchit, as well as to the home of his nephew, Fred. It is the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come who shows Scrooge a glimpse of his own death and the potential consequences of his actions.

That because Marley had been so mean and miserly during his lifetime, never mixing with or benefiting the world around him, he was doomed to an eternity of dragging chains forged by his selfishness.

He is shown his own lonely history which has effected his view of Christmas, never having grown in family environment at Christmas. He learns this and that he cannot change the history only the future. With the ghost of Christmas present his eyes are opened when he learns about the scale of want around him and ignorance of those who could do something , even small that can help those in dire need.

In the last vision that the ghost shows Scrooge in "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens, Scrooge sees his own lonely death, with nobody mourning him. This vision serves as a warning for him to change his ways and avoid a similar fate.

The main conflict in "A Christmas Carol" is the character transformation of Ebenezer Scrooge from a selfish, greedy miser to a kind and generous person. This transformation is driven by visits from three spirits who show him the consequences of his actions, leading to his realization that he must change his ways.
