Henry Edwards Compare And Contrast

Both the book and DVD are similar and different in many ways. One way that the movie and book of “A Christmas Carol” are similar is most of the sequence of events. In both the book and DVD it starts out by introducing the characters and then starting the plot of the story. Another way that they are similar is that they both involve a man named Ebenezer Scrooge as the main character. Scrooge is the main person who in both the movie and book, is in most of the events. The last way that they are similar is that they both involve three spirits that come and take Ebenezer on adventures into the past, present and future.

Many people would agree that Puritan Jonathan Edwards and Rationalist Patrick Henry were both rhetorically effective because of their powerful use of pathos throughout their writings. But ultimately, Rationalist Patrick Henry was able to be more rhetorically convincing because of his strong and compelling use of ethos and logos.

One difference in the movie was that the Ghost of Christmas yet to come has a hand of skin. Not a hand without skin that was wrote in the book. I think that this makes a difference though because it doesn't show a big impact on the story. I think Charles Dickens put the skinless hand in his story to give his story a "chill-factor". I don't think that the director of the movie version of A Christmas Carol thought that it was a big deal or a big impact to the rest of the story. Another difference between book and movie is that Scrooge doesn't go to church at the end of the story. I think it makes a big difference though, because it shows how much Scrooge has changed since the three spirits came to visit him. It shows a before and after effect which I think made a big impact on the story. The last significant change between the book and the movie is that when Scrooge follows the Ghost of Christmas yet to come, he ends up falling into his grave. This is significant because Scrooge gets to meet the old Scrooge and gives him a slap in the face of reality of what's going to happen if things don't change. It's ironic too because it's the new Scrooge that wakes up on the bed in the morning.

Beginning with characters, Ebenezer Scrooge carries his overall theme of generosity or lack thereof into the movie where he is referred to as Frank Cross. Cross shows this in his Christmas gifts that he gives out to family and employees which happen to be no more than a fluffy towel. Scrooge expresses his lack of generosity by giving Bob Crachit, his employee, little to no christmas bonus and being unhappy with his request to take Christmas day off.
