    Scrooge’s change in A Christmas Carol. To what extent do you agree? In Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol”‚ the character of Scrooge goes through a transformation which results in him being a generous and considerate man instead of a cruel and bitter one. This transformation is not primarily stimulated by the character Tiny Tim; it is instead as a result of encounters with a series of ghosts and other significant people‚ such as Tiny Tim. The Ghost of Christmas Past‚ The Ghost of Christmas Present and The

The first mention of the birthday of Jesus is from the year 354 AD. Gradually all Christian churches‚ except Armenians who celebrate Christmas

    Period 4B In this very lyrical excerpt‚ Mary Oliver has a great attraction to nature because of its paradoxical yet balancing form. By being both terrifying and beautiful‚ nature fills the world with contrasting entities that can be “death-bringers” or bring “immobilizing happiness.” Oliver uses imagery‚ parallelism‚ and contrasting to express her swaying emotions of fear‚ awe‚ and happiness towards nature. The imagery creates the very distinct contrast between terrifying and beautiful parts of

I love this creativity in Duffy‚ this capacity for the ‘what if’ or ‘reframe’ in Carol Ann Duffy. For like all great writers‚ she is prepared to renegotiate experience and the past. She believes in resurrection through remembrance‚ and

    The irony is the twist ending to this short story. When the story reached an ending‚ Jim sells his watch to buy combs for Della’s hair‚ but Della cut her hair and sold it to buy a chain for Jim’s watch. This story included a situational irony.

In the story‚ he mentioned he would love Della no matter condition she is in‚ shows that he is a kind man. The story also mentions the watch has value
