    In what ways have change been made interesting to you by writers craft and performance of the text and on screen?

    The main element of his change is obsession; Scrooge and Macbeth both have these aspects of their characters. Although the reasons behind their obsession are completely polar opposites, they both come from the same root cause, greed. Their obsession takes over the fact that any other emotion ever existed in the first place and these are what change their entire story. For example, Macbeth, his greed/obsession…

    A Christmas Carol - Transformation

    Dickens creates transformation in his characters to highlight the importance of kindness and its effects. We meet Scrooge in stave one, a man who is as “solitary as an oyster” and so cold “a chill does not affect him”, this leads readers to feel pessimistic and negatively towards Scrooge. His ill treatment of Bob Cratchit and his cold, dark nature is then contrasted to that of the warm “lively” Fezziwig, Scrooge’s old employer. Fezziwig with his “Christmas party” and the generosity toward Scrooge and his other apprentice presents readers with the happiness and contentment brought about by being generous and giving. The contrast of employee treatment allows Scrooge to see his twisted ways and allows readers to view how their generosity could lead to the happiness of others and a fulfillment of duty as an employer. The greatest and most obvious character transformation is between the initial Scrooge and the final Scrooge. “Wheezing...” and almost machine-like Ebenezer Scrooge is despised and on the outskirts of society, even the blind are seen as lucky for not having to “set eyes on evil himself”. However, Scrooge’s change and journey allows him to recognize his duty to others and how helping those around him, he receives joy and pleasure. This transformation…

    Similarities Between The Lion King And A Christmas Carol

    The book, A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens is the originally book where the ideas came from. But, comparing to the movie “The Lion King” there are many ways that they are the same and many ways that they are different. Scrooge has seen the first ghost “the ghost of christmas past” and the ghost had taken Scrooge to his his past. Scrooge saw many scenes but after all the important scenes were shown to Scrooge the ghost took Scrooge back to the present. Shortly after, in his room was another ghost, except this one was surrounded by food and clothed in a long green robe. The second ghost was “the ghost of christmas present”. “It was clothed in one simple green robe, or mantle, bordered with white fur. This garment hung so loosely on the figure, that its captious breast was bare, as if disdaining to be warded or concealed by any article”(Dickens,…

    A Christmas Carol and Oliver Twist Comparison

    Harry and Rose from Oliver Twist and Alice and Ebeneezer Scrooge from A Christmas Carol are in similar situations because both of the couples are in love yet wealth has come between both of the couples. Alice and Ebeneezer Scrooge were engaged and in love. Ebeneezer’s love for Alice was soon not as important as his pursuit of wealth and desire to be a part of “High Society”. Alice and Scrooge were a part of the lower class and their love was not enough for Scrooge, his greed was too strong for him to hold on to someone that may slow down his quest for wealth. Unlike Scrooge leaving his love for wealth and high social ranking, Harry left his wealth and high social ranking to gain his love. Harry was in love with Rose who was from a lower class than he. Mrs. Maylie, Harry’s mother, advised against a marriage between the two because it could lower Harry’s social ranking and now allow him to do things in his life that he may want to do. Harry was so in love with Rose that he left his social rankings and his desires behind him so that he could be with Rose and not worry about a reputation. Harry gave up something very important to him for love while Scrooge gave up the women he loved for something based entirely upon greed.…
