“The dominant theme in ‘A Christmas Carol’ is redemption.” –Do you agree? In Charles Dickens’ perennially popular novella‚ ‘A Christmas Carol’ (1843)‚ we encounter a world where serious social problems lurk beneath an otherwise imaginative and engaging narrative. Through exploring a world of fiction and fantasy‚ the author does not shy away from depicting the importance of maintaining ones basic humanity in times filled with rampant industrialism and social injustice. In fact‚ through miserly

“Imagination in A Christmas Carol” Graham Holderness says A Christmas Carol categorically that the writer’s imagination fails. Scrooge is allowed to slide into a rarefied limbo of Christmas sentiment and Christian charity‚ so abstract as to be empty of life and meaning. His encounter with the three ghosts is far more credible‚ far more realistic‚ than this closing vision of life of permanent goodness‚ which scarcely resembles human life at all. In one respect‚ of course‚ this misses the point

In Havisham‚ Carol Ann Duffy creates an interesting character. Write about the way the character is created‚ and compare this with the way other characters are created in three other poems. You should compare it with one poem by Simon Armitage and two poems from the pre-1912 poetry bank. In Havisham‚ Carol Ann Duffy explores the character of Mrs Havisham and develops her by using vivid imagery and metaphors.

In fact I was thinking of how to get farther away so that I would not be hit myself. What is more‚ any anger I felt at that moment was directed‚ not against the Kapo‚ but against my father. I was angry with him‚ for not knowing how to avoid Idek’s outbreak. That is what concentration camp life had made of me.” Eliezer’s complete outlook on life has changed since things started

upon the "The Dead" I pondered the manner in which James Joyce implemented "wasteland imagery" in the story. My understanding of the definition of "wasteland imagery" as it applies to this story is to represent an aspect of life as lacking in spiritual‚ aesthetic‚ or other humanizing qualities through use of vivid or figurative language. Throughout the story I couldn ’t help but notice finely nuanced descriptions and bits of dialogue where Joyce undercuts the celebratory nature of the evening with such
