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…

Amir’s character development allows him to stand up to his past sins and allows him to redeem himself. Repetition is used within The Kite Runner to further explore that there is a way to redeem oneself from their past sins.…

We defined absurdity as the idea of no meaning in life. If you accept this idea, you will be happy and be alive, If not, you will perish. The idea of absurdity actually is reflected in the character of Meursault and in each action he is doing. I believe that Meursault actually killed the Arab for no reason. Even though the Arab was scratching his eye, I believe that it is not a sufficient reason for him to have acted like he did.…
