Primarily, Dickens symbolises poverty and death with the character of Tiny Tim. Notably, he shows that Scrooge is greatly affected by the the family’s poverty, but especially on the crippled Tiny Tim, a character that Dickens includes to represent the population of poor children as Tiny Tim is a helpless victim of poverty. Scrooge’s newfound empathy is shown, ‘tell me if Tiny Tim will live’ showing that seeing this life of poverty has changed his attitude to the poor. The spirit warns Scrooge that, ‘If these shadows remain unaltered by the Future, the child will die’, filling Scrooge with, ‘penitence and grief’, and a desire to help Tiny Tim, ‘Scrooge had his eye upon them, and especially on Tiny Tim, until the last.’ Ultimately, the harshness of poverty is shown by the death of Tiny Tim,…
The fear of Scrooge towards the third ghost is very understandable , above all it is the physical appearance of this ghost that makes Scrooge fear him the most, but on the other hand the quietness of it makes Scrooge get a feeling of suspense. “Scrooge feared the silent shape so much that his legs trembled beneath him, and he found that he could hardly stand when he prepared to follow it” (Dickens 134). The fact that the ghost did not talked at all only made Scrooge more nervous, he did not know what to say nor what to do. The reader can easily notice that Scrooge had a lot of respect towards this ghost, mainly because of the fear that the Phantom was causing him but also because he had learned to do it from the other ghosts. “I fear you…

Examine the ways in which Dickens presents the character of Scrooge in A Christmas Carol.…
Scrooge was at first inclined to be surprised that the Spirit should attach importance to conversations apparently so trivial; but feeling assured that they must have some hidden purpose, he set himself to consider what it was likely to be. They could scarcely be supposed to have any bearing on the death of Jacob, his old partner, for that was Past, and this Ghost's province was the Future. Nor could he think of any one immediately connected with himself, to whom he could apply them. But nothing doubting that to whomsoever they applied they had some latent moral for his own improvement, he resolved to treasure up every word he heard, and everything he saw; and especially to observe the shadow of himself when it appeared. For he had an expectation that the conduct of his future self would give him the clue he missed, and would render the solution of these riddles easy. (4.38)…
In the story A Christmas Carol , my reaction changed towards Scrooge through each stave. In the first opening stave, you felt as if Scrooge was an inconsiderate, horrible man. Throughout the rest of the staves you start to feel bad for Scrooge and almost forgive him. Also his past reflects his personality in the future. This influences my reaction towards Scrooge as Dickens uses contradicting and contrasting techniques. The moral I received was; dickens is trying to convey to the reader is that you can always be forgiven for what you have done in the past.…
