How Does Scrooge Change

As soon as Jacob left, Scrooge went to bed but to only be awaken by the ghost of Christmas Past. The ghost was a strange childlike phantom with a brightly glowing head. The boy took Scrooge out through the window and travel back in time to revisits his childhood school days, his apprenticeship with a jolly merchant named Fezziwig, and his engagement to Belle, a woman who leaves Scrooge because his lust for money eclipses his ability to love another. Each past recollection that he hold caused scrooge to rethink where did he go wrong and caused him to tear up and sob and even regret not giving to someone who today ask for money for the poor. The ghost then returned Scrooge to his bedroom after his time travel through his past.

In the play, A Christmas Carol: Scrooge and Marley by Israel Horovitz the main character Scrooge is a cold-hearted miser who despises Christmas and people. At the beginning, he shows very different and mean actions towards people and how he is always mad. For example when Scrooge leaves his office's people start to walk past him in a happy and merry mood. But in contrast to the people, Scrooge has a frown and looks unhappy for the Christmas time. Another example is that when his nephew is talking to him he is wanting him to leave so he keeps on repeating the words, “Good Afternoon!” until he leaves. The last example would be that when Cratchit is cold in the office, Scrooge starts yelling at him saying that he would fire him because he was showing he was cold. Scrooge also shows it in his own words by saying “...every idiot who goes about with “Merry Christmas” on his lips, should be boiled with his own pudding, and buried with a stake of holly through his heart.”(647).

Scrooge was surprised when Past took him to see himself when he was only a boy. At the time Srooge realized that he should have done something for the little boy that was caroling, but Scrooge realizes that it is too late. Then Scrooge sees when he is 12 that his sister comes in and says that he can come home for christmas this year. So they get there stuff and go outside, the dad was telling scrooge that he can stay to days and then go to work. Then Scrooge sees his old boss Fezziwig and realizes that he wanted to be like Fezziwig when he was older and never became that kind of boss.

There is lightning and thunder and the Ghost of Christmas Present appears to Scrooge. Scrooge pleads to the Ghost of Christmas “Tonight, if you have aught to teach me, let me profit by it.”(page 267 paragraph 24) Present commanded Scrooge to touch his robe and they go through scenes of this years Christmas. In scene three, Present shows Ebenezer the home of his employee, Bob Cratchit. He thought Cratchit was being foolish for having such a large family for only getting 15 shillings a week. Scrooge sees the condition Bob’s son, Tiny Tim is in. Tiny Tim walks on a crutch and has braces on his legs. Scrooge asks the Spirit “Spirit, tell me if Tiny Tim will live.”(page 271 paragraph 55) The Present explained that if Scrooge does not alter the future, the child will die. Scrooge pleads that the child will be

Scrooge finds Bob Cratchit's son or Tiny Tim who is a crippled person but his kindness to everyone warms up Scrooge's heart. The ghost then brings Scrooge to watch his nephew's party. He then finds two children named Ignorance and Want that are living in his coat who are homeless people that are starving. The ghost then vanishes and Scrooge sees a mysterious figure coming to him.

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens is about three ghosts – one of Christmas past, one of Christmas present, and one of Christmas future – trying to change Ebenezer Scrooge. At the time, he is a grumpy man that does not find any pleasure in anything. When he argues with his nephew, he shows this about himself (pg. 3). The three spirits influence Scrooge’s transformation by making him a happier person.

In the beginning, Scrooge is a bitter and greedy man who hates christmas. When his nephew talks about Christmas Scrooge says “Bah!...Humbug!” (48). When his Nephew asks if he means it, he says he does. When asked to donate money, Scrooge said “Nothing!...I wish to be left alone,” (51).

In the “Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens the main character is Ebenezer Scrooge. Scrooge is not a very nice person, he is full of greed, he is selfish, and he is prideful. Scrooge is a very successful businessman, that makes wise decisions to keep his business running. Scrooge was very greedy, he would not donate to any charities for the hungry, and caring about nothing about money and what option is cheaper. He is selfish because he gives his assistant a very low salary and is rude to everyone in his path. He shows how prideful he is through his wealth, he thought that people that were poor were lazy and good for nothing and that because he had more money than him he was better than them.

Scrooge is a mean person who has a very interesting life when he meets three spirits that helped over time. Scrooge was a person who thought business was all about money. Since of that Scrooge became a mean and selfish man over time and throughout the story. This shows that in a Christmas Carol Charles Dickens shows us that the business in life is to help other 9, through Scrooge’s changes throughout the story.

Scrooge is evil, rotten, and greedy. His deceased friend, Marley noticed this and sent him the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future. They make Scrooge relive his saddest moments, like seeing his sister again before she died, and losing the woman that he loved, that might have a part in why he is, like he is, now. They also show him the stuff around him, like his employee’s son, Tiny Tim, being sick and saying that he is not going to make it. Then to top it off, future shows him his grave and some weird lady insulting him after he is died.

“Spirit, hear me. I am not the man I was...I will honor Christmas in my heart...I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future...I will not shut out the lessons that they teach”. A Christmas Carol , written in six weeks by Charles Dickens, was published on December 19, 1843. The Ghost of Christmas Past shows Ebenezer the emotions that he once perceived. The past events that happened in Scrooge’s life had a negative effect on his Present which the Ghost of Christmas Present revealed to him. The Ghost of Christmas Future threatened Scrooge by showing him that if he remained the man that he was, all that would lie before him was a lonely future. Through the three Ghosts, Ebenezer changes not only his Christmas Spirit but his overall personality.
