It says on the internet that the book costs 5 shillings?

[@MrSallesTeachesEnglish]

Yes, it did cost 5 shillings, so Bob could have bought 3 of them with one week's wages - sorry for the confusion!

[@Tom-bfc]

@@MrSallesTeachesEnglish I’m just wondering why this would link to Bob meaning shilling or would it just be the same link anyway?

@@Tom-bfc yes thats exactly what I was thinking lol

[@mansasingh3062]

@@john.smith12 yeah samee!

[@Ao2-lq4pk]

@Tom-bfc I wrote a pragrapgh on the point about the link about "Bob" and the shilling, and hope it shows what Mr Salles meant: By drawing attention to Bob's earnings, which could purchase three copies of the book itself at the time of publication, Dickens underscores the disparity between the financial circumstances of the characters and the intended audience. The choice to target the upper-middle classes, who often employed domestic workers like Bob, suggests Dickens' aim to provoke reflection and empathy among those with the means to affect societal change. Additionally, Dickens' deliberate naming of Bob Cratchit, possibly derived from the shilling, a common unit of currency in the Victorian era, adds a layer of symbolism to the character's portrayal. This choice hints at themes of transformation and redemption, subtly reminding readers of the potential for personal and societal change.

The question:How does Dickens present the redeemed character of Scrooge? Write about: >how Dickens present Scrooge in this extract >how Dickens presents Scrooge at the start of the novella. Dickens thoughtfully crafts the character of Scrooge as a cruel, vindictive individual who miraculously transforms into a selfless, generous man to highlight to his well off readers that change is truly possible and results in a better, fairer society Immediately, we are presented with a harsh strong image of Scrooge as being "squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous old sinner" before we even meet him properly. Dickens cleverly does this in order for the readers to immediately recognise his bad nature and creates him as almost an exaggeration of the middle and upper class to highlight that they need to change and reconsider their miserliness. These seven negative adjectives used to describe him mirrors the seven deadly sins which were seen in the bible as the root of all evil.As victorian society was strongly Christian this would ultimately serve to frighten them and remind them of hell, but also the parallels between sin and Scrooge used by Dickens emphasises that the rich are more sinful than the poor which would have contradicted the popular view that the poor were lazy individuals.Additionally, these words are semantically linked to hands which shows how tightly he held onto things. Dickens does this to convey Scrooge as a ruthless person to make his transformation and redeemed character appear evermore glorious. Through the weather we are able to see just how ostracised and miserly Scrooge is and can pinpoint his truly unwelcoming nature. Surprisingly, just when we think his attitudes towards people are the only impact he has but also the "external heat and cold had little influence on Scrooge" which demonstrates his successful ostracisation of himself as even elements of nature, typically uncontrollable, he has managed to isolate himself from. Alternatively the noun 'heat' could be referring to kindness and love(from others) and 'cold' could be referring to anything unpleasant which suggests that he is blocking all things whether positive or negative. Moreover, his surroundings are "foggier"and "colder", the pathetic fallacy of cold weather creates an uninviting atmosphere directly reflecting Scrooge's character. Fog symbolises ignorance, perhaps implying his ignorance to understand what is happening around him and to those he's oppressing- the lower class. Additionally, metaphorically the fog is acting as a barrier and dividing the classes and is almost supporting the ignorance of the ruling class who are oblivious to their actions. To further expand, fog came about as a result of the industrial revolution, so Dickens may be criticising this as many at the time were in awe of England's productions but Dickens was critical of it as it ultimately resulted in neglecting the most vulnerable and overzealousness of money. Dickens constructs an exemplified version of someone who is overzealous of money to make the attitudes of the middle and upper classes visible. Through the intervention of the ghosts, a spark in Scrooge lit as he gains knowledge and heals his inner childhood trauma and abandonment. The stark contrast between 'hard and sharp as a flint' to now 'as merry as a schoolboy', creates an instant shift in tone from melancholy to jubilant as he has now regained his youthful innocence and ability to see the world in an untainted light. Scrooge's excitement is bulging, it seems like he has only just now realised the greatness and wonders of this world. Dickens establishes that money won't bring happiness, the only thing that will bring true happiness is connection with people, love, support and generosity. As Victorian society was predominantly Christian, the readers would understand this as they would be familiar with many Bible readings signifying this. Scrooge's transformation resembles a quite spiritual one and his redeemed character seems to be reconnected to God as he becomes as "happy as an angel". This religious simile highlights how Scrooge feels that redemption has led him back to the path of God and faith. He was previously described as a "sinner" embodying the seven deadly sins yet his redemption has led to his restoration of religious morals. Additionally, an "angel" is probably the purest, holiest closest thing to God so by connecting him to that of an angel, it is evident that he has truly transformed. Angels are specially chosen by God and are guaranteed to stay in heaven forever, therefore perhaps hints that Scrooge's transformation has been accepted by God and he has reopened the gates of heaven for him and stopped his intended doom in purgatory. During the Victorian Era, the middle and upper class didn't quite understand their overzealousness and ignorance of the poor and how greatly it affected people as they were so wrapped up in their bubbles, shielded by ignorance. Therefore by Dickens showing the detrimental impacts and the clear consequences of purgatory/hell, he is enlightening his readers and providing them with the correct knowledge so they can avoid doom like Scrooge has. Dickens presents the redeemed character of Scrooge in such a positive light and makes his kindness and happiness extremely clear. When Scrooge wakes up in stage 5 the first thing his redeemed self says is "Merry Christmas carol to everybody!A happy New Year to all the world!", the fact that the presents Christmas first is significant as this a direct contrast to "bah humbug"! The exclamation mark show his joy and excitement as he now sees the value in non-monetary things. Also, the plural pronoun "everybody" suggests he now cares about and wants to extend his love to everyone which highly mirrors the language used by Tiny Tim. The fact that Dickens uses "Merry Christmas" as he first words pairs Christmas with joy perhaps Dickens is trying to urge us to always keep the Christmas spirit and generosity all year round. Another important thing to point out is his "splendid laugh" which is the first time in this novella we read of him laughing. Laughing symbolises knowledge in a Christmas Carol which finalises his transformation and this laugh was described as "the father of a long, long line of brilliant laughs" emphasising that this redeemed character will last. I didn't include a conclusion but i would usually i just don't have time. I would really appreciate if you could mark this. Thank you very much.

Hi sir, Another quick one- I've been looking at lots of example exam questions, and some of them are very difficult to mold these ideas to (for me atleast) Do you have any ideas? For example - how does dickens presents the importance of family -how does dickens create a sense of atmosphere - how does he use the theme of charity and Christmas spirit (yes- this one is slighty obvious, however i am quite partial to going off track and answering a different question) Many thanks!

[@MillieNowell]

importance of family you can talk about redemption and how scrooge is miserable when he doesn't realise the importance of it but when he realises he redeems himself and mention Fred as scrooge is Fred's uncle, for the atmosphere talk about how he mentions London with crime etc and maybe learn some more setting quotes
