Old Scrooge : A Trio Of Carol In The Carol's Carol

Scrooge lives in a gloomy suite of rooms, which is so old and dreary that Scrooge is the only one who lives there. This is where Scrooge encountered Marley, on Christmas Eve seven years to the date when he passed away. Marley firsts appears on the door where the knocker sits, “but looked at scrooge as Marley used to look: with ghostly spectacles turned up upon is ghostly forehead. Scrooge is not an easily frightened man, but from the sight of the ghostly face, he becomes slightly unnerved, and double looks himself in as an attempt to dismiss the ghostly face. “I won’t believe it,” once again is presented with a ghostly figure, “ I know him!

Scrooge wakes up, as it is about to be one o’clock. It already has happened once, so Scrooge is used to all of it now, so he stays calm, as he pulls apart the bed curtains all by himself, and Scrooge also prepares to not freak out this time, though, nothing happens.

The first ghost came when the clock pounded one. A horrid fusion among a child and an old man the ghost opens the Scrooge's bed curtains. According to the text the spirit is very vivid and bright. So the ghost takes Scrooge to his old school. According to the text Scrooge actually starts to laugh for the first time at the appearance of him reading fantasy books. Consequently he wasn't outdoors, playing with the other kids. The second place the ghost took Scrooge was where he and his sister were talking about their father being sent away. From the reading of the first spirit Scrooge really likes the first spirit for being very generous and thoughtful for taking Scrooge and showing him motivational parts in his life. The ghost of Christmas past helped Scrooge learn that there is more in life other than being morose all the time, there is amusement, family, bliss, and ambitious life to live.

In 'A Christmas Carol', Dickens represents Scrooge as a 'squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous old sinner' who is against Christmas and happiness and values money, yet given a chance to redeem his fate. Marley's Ghost has come to warn Scrooge to change

Using the first spirit, Scrooge was forced to face the fact that people viewed him as greedy and selfish, and began to open him up to the fact that he needs to change. The second spirit, The Ghost of Christmas Present, arrived and took Scrooge to the home of a worker of his, Bob Cratchit. It showed the family content, despite barely getting by. When Scrooge saw Bob’s sick son, he began to show worry that he would not survive. When the spirit told him that the son would not make it to next Christmas, this made Scrooge want to help him. This kind of emotion was unlike him, showing that he was changing (CC40). The spirit then took him to several other Christmas gatherings, where he enjoyed himself and played many games, even though he was merely in a dream. This spirit was used to open up Scrooge and showed his inner want to be around people. These thoughts for Scrooge were different than his from the beginning of the novel, showing that the spirits were being used to teach valuable lessons to Scrooge. The final spirit arrived, but would not answer when asked if he was the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. Scrooge plead with the ghost to share his lesson with him, fearful of becoming like Marley (CC51). The silent spirit took Scrooge to a series of strange places, showing people discussing the death of a dead rich man. He then began to understand the

He also told him to come to work early the next day. Later in the novel Marley's face appears on his doorknocker. This could show that Scrooge does care about Marley as he looked behind him when he goes into his house. It is visible in the house, that Scrooge was very strict with his money and did not spend it on himself.

‘’The cold within him froze his old features. ’’ I believe that this description shows that Scrooge is unbelievably cold-hearted, even unrealistically so: ‘’No wind blew bitterer than he, no falling snow more intent upon its purpose, no pelting rain less open to entreaty. Foul weather didn’t know where to have him.’’ This description displays that not even the weather has an effect on him, it is also apparent that Scrooge’s personality was worse than any weather, he was bitterer than any blizzard colder than any rainfall.

But Scrooge is not very content to see him, he wants to know where he’s gonna take him. As the ghost takes him to where they need to go they move to the big city and it looks like that somebody died, it states in the text that a man recited I don’t know all that I know is that he’s dead.It also

In the text it states that the first of the three spirits was the Ghost of Christmas Past. The text explicitly states “During the whole of this time, Scrooge had acted like a man out of his wits.” The text explicitly states that Scrooge had a special desire to look at the spirit in his cap. Based on

During Scrooge’s encounter with the Ghost of Christmas Past, Scrooge personality improves tremendously. Before Scrooge’s encounter with the first ghost, Scrooge was cold and untrustworthy. This is portrayed in the second stave on page 31, when Scrooge triumphantly states, “The hour itself, and nothing else,” after hearing from Marley that the spirits would haunt him at 1:00. Scrooge did not trust his own recollection or Marley’s warning. However, later in the stave on page 49, after the spirit showed Scrooge a poor decision that he made when he was younger, Scrooge tells the spirit, “Spirit, show me no more. Conduct me home…” He understands that the spirit has control over him, and trusts the spirit to bring him home.

The ghost of Christmas past determinately vanishes at the strokes of midnight , and leaves scrooge to face the ghost of Christmas Yet To

Christmastime brings joy and happiness to most people, Ebenezer Scrooge is not of them. Scrooge at the beginning of the story is a grumpy old miser that believes that Christmas is a humbug and thinks that "Its less of a time of being merry, and more of a time of being loony". Scrooge is very rude and nasty especially to his nephew when he asks him to come to his dinner and say " I'd rather see myself dead than with your family. ". Scrooge, when businessmen come to ask for revisions for the poor Scrooge, asks very rudely " Are there no prisons" As you can tell Scrooge is not the nicest person and needs to change but what can make Scrooge change.

At the beginning of A Christmas Carol, Scrooge is bitter, greedy, and selfish. He was rude to just about everyone he met, because he was discouraged over losing some really important people in his life. And since he was upset over that, he definitely didn’t have to try to act the way he was feeling. He had a right to be feeling that way, but he shouldn’t have taken action. But as he met three ghosts, Scrooge changes from these traits through his experiences throughout the story.

Ebenezer Scrooge has been reminded in the beginning of the story about his old friend, family, his nephew, and Christmas. These facts in the beginning must have bothered him. But the most must have been his friend Marley. After Marley left the book said,”… went straight to bed, without undressing, and fell asleep on the instant.” Scrooge must have been extremely tired and that’s when he started to dream.” When Scrooge and the Spirits of Christmas Past visit Scrooge’s past, Scrooge heard that it was all silent outside. This is some how wrong because during Christmas Eve adults and children are out playing, getting last minute gifts, or having a feast. After, Scrooge comes back from his past the Spirits of the present comes to show Scrooge’s present. The spirit tells Scrooge to enter a room which was full of foods and Christmas decorations. When the Ghost of the present took him to places it is l loud and cheerful. All of a sudden it was all loud (strange). Scrooge

Scrooge returns to the home of Jacob Marley, where Marley’s ghost tells him that he is going to have three ghosts visit him in the near future. The ghosts will give Scrooge an opportunity to reform himself. The text explicitly states that Scrooge was a tight fisted hand at the grindstone. Moreover, he was a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous, matured sinner! Accordingly, his self-contained personality made him solitary as an oyster. In the text, it states, that Scrooge did not want to donate money to the poor since he could better use the money for himself. Scrooge declined to even to let his clerk have a day off for Christmas! The text explicitly said “it was a day that his clerk was allowed to rob
