    He starts to comprehend his harsh behaviours and asks the spirit to 'conduct [him] where you will. I went forth last night on compulsion, and I learnt a lesson…let me profit by it.' The spirit, through Dickens, transports Scrooge to view an affectionate scene during Christmas with the Cratchits, where Tiny Tim's feeble self is seated next to his father. Scrooge feels miserable for the family even though they are 'happy [and] grateful' because it was Christmas time and are always 'pleased with one another and contented with the time'. Dickens, through the Spirit of Christmas Present, has also used caricatures to juxtapose with Scrooge's characterization by revealing that even though on the 'dismal reef of sunken rocks' and in isolation, the lonely men at the lighthouse still 'wished each other Merry Christmas…and struck up a sturdy song', which shows Scrooge that no matter where people are, Christmas is a time for…

    Stave 1--Dismal Gray seemed to shroud the entire section of this story, hanging low like the mist over England. Although bleakness is not the main theme in A Christmas Carol, it is certainly present and important. As evidenced by the author’s word choice when he was adding description to the Christmas Eve night: it was cold, bleak, biting weather, and he could hear the people in the court outside….candles were flaring in windows of the windows of the neighboring offices, like ruddy smears upon the palpable brown air….to see the dingy cloud come drooping down obscuring everything….…

    Dickens novella, “A Christmas Carol”, continues to influence many aspects of Christmas that are celebrated today, such as family gatherings, seasonal food and drink, a spirit of generosity and a humanitarian focus of generosity of those less fortunate during this holiday season. It is the diverse views of the spirit of generosity and humanitarian focus that Dickens seeks to expose in this literary work. The landscapes of the novella shift between the poverty stricken, sick and imprisoned to the higher classes whose enjoyment of the season is enriched by wealth, to the embittered character of Scrooge whose view is one of a day of waste. Dickens uses both outdoor and indoor landscape to create the character of Bob Cratchit by contrasting his dominated servant attitude while in service to Scrooge versus his openly loving father/husband role within the Cratchit family.…

    Christmas is a Christian celebration of the birth of Christ, though it also encompasses Greek, Roman and pagan traditions of giving gifts and feasting around the Winter Solstice. It is a time when families and friends come together to share food and exchange gifts (web).

    Scrooge and his experiences with the ghosts and his feelings about the Cratchits are both driven by the concept of empathy, and it is this feeling of empathy that would inspire readers for years to come. The lasting impact of A Christmas Carol is widespread and unparalleled, as it has shaped the modern meaning of Christmas and all of society’s Christmas traditions. But the most meaningful impact the novel has had on society is the conflation of Christmas with charitable giving. Dickens’ belief in social justice as depicted in the novel was credited with inspiring an outpouring of charitable deeds during his time, as well as a revival of the Christmas spirit that is still evident today. The story of the redemption of Ebenezer Scrooge is one…

    His sensitivity for mankind stirred, he welcomes the Ghost of Christmas Present to show him another “lesson.” He is directed to the festive joy in the suburban dwelling of his clerk, Bob Cratchitt, overshadowed by Tiny Tim’s declining health, and with frightfulness he sees the pitiful youngsters, Ignorance and Want, the outgrowths of human detachment, attached to the ghost.
