Summary Of Before Scrooge's A Christmas Carol
In my diorama Scrooge is grieving at the sight of his future resting spot. As Scrooge kneels against the grave covered in snow the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come hovers next to him. Even as SCrooge pleas for forgiveness all the spirit does is stay quiet.

    I think the best scene that illustrates the journey to a new self is when the ghost of Christmas future puts Scrooge in a grave, and makes him have to promise that he will change. First the spirit shows Scrooge the bed where he is laying at the moment. “Tell me what man that was, with the covered face, whom we saw lying dead?” Then the spirit takes Scrooge to his own grave where it starts sinking and Scrooge is falling inside. In the grave, Scrooge makes a promise. “I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.” “I will not shut out the lessons that they teach.”…

    When I read this story it showed how Scrooge changed during the three visits from each spirit the first one was the ghost of christmas past, the second was the ghost of the christmas present, the third one was the ghost of the christmas future and it talked about how it has affected scrooge in the past, present, and the future, I think the future affected him the most because he thought having a lot of money would make him a popular person, but when he saw his death, and he was alone, he began to realize money is not what makes family, he thinks about tiny tim about that tiny tim is not rich but he is everyone favorite. Once he have visited every ghost he has changed he is now a nice person.…

    This was that Scrooge did NOT appreciate anything he had in his life. Throughout the beginning of the story, Scrooge took everything for granted. Of course, Scrooge could not realize this because his greed for money took over his soul. He was so caught up in making money, that he did not take a look around him to understand that he was blessed with a loyal clerk, a prosperous company, and a jolly relative still alive. The motif that Scrooge didn’t appreciate him clearly ties back with the chosen passage. This is because when Marley comes to tell Scrooge about the three ghosts, the ghosts will turn him into a more cheerful, appreciative, person. This is also the first part in the story when Scrooge has an opportunity to realize that Marley was such a great friend and partner to him.…

    Introduction-Sometimes the things you do can affect you on your future and make you get marked again from them. On the act of “A Christmas Carol”, we read how one of the main characters (Scrooge) was the man that no one didn't like and when he changed. He was a completely different man and, could take care of anyone. Scrooge had a lot of problems in his life that he had regret but, the most effective problem was that he'd lost the person he'd truly care about and the people that made him go forward.…

    In this scene he is taken to his grave in the future and he then shows his fear and admits that he has done wrong throughout his life once he sees that no one cares that he has died. He says ‘Hear me! I am not the man I was.’ the way he says ‘hear me!’ suggests that he wants everyone to know and hear that he has changed from his pervious self. I think Dickens may have included this episode within the story to show Scrooge admitting he’s now different. Also, earlier in the story, Scrooge says that the poor population should die. However, after seeing what death is like, his point of view may have changed and he may take back what he said…

    This is evidenced as Marley died on Christmas day Scrooge was the only mourner however Scrooge did not seem affected by the death as instead of paying his respect Scrooge used it as an opportunity to make business "even Scrooge was not so dreadfully cut up by the sad event, but that he was an excellent man of business on the very day of the funeral, and solemnized it with an undoubted bargain." Scrooge's tight-fisted nature is demonstrated for the first time in this quote. Scrooge's choice of bargaining at a funeral where it's supposed to be meaningful and evocative; justifies Scrooges apathetic attitude towards the death of his "sole friend" . This foreshadows Scrooge's death as when the ghost of Christmas yet to come displays the vision of Scrooge's death there was only a atmosphere of happiness and a apathetic attitude just like Scrooge at Marley's funeral. At the beginning of the vision Scrooge is acquainted by businessmen as they were discussing about his death, as stated before they gave an uninterested reaction. One of the Business men asked "What has he done with his money?", the fact that they are more concerned about the money rather than Scrooge's death shows their callous attitude again referring back to Scrooge's behavior towards Marley's…

    He remembers how he was rejected, and then he feels regretful and sad for what he had done and what might happen because of him. In the second stave it says, “The school is not quite deserted,” said the Ghost. “A solitary child, neglected by his friends, is left there still” (33). This depicts that Scrooge had no one that really loved him. He didn’t have any real friends or people to talk too. Scrooge thinks about what he has done, and says regretfully, “There was a boy singing a Christmas carol at my door last night. I should like to have given him something” (36). This demonstrates that Scrooge knows that he has made mistakes, and is starting to become a better person, with the Ghosts’ help. Scrooge becomes sad, finally thinking about someone other than himself. “Spirit,” said Scrooge, with an interest he had never felt before, “Tell me if Tiny Tim will live.” “I see a vacant seat,” replied the Ghost, “In an old chimney corner, and a crutch without an owner, carefully preserved. If these shadows remain unaltered by the future, the child will die” (65). This shows that Scrooge really does care about other people. He is recognizing his emotions for other people…

Scrooge seeks redemption through the many lessons taught by the Spirits of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come.…
