Grade 9 Analysis Scrooge A Christmas Carol (Mr Salles)

[@laurenm5770]

I've found it easier to remember points by developing on them - In stave two it's stated that "the spirit touched him on the arm, and pointed to his younger self, intent upon his reading". "intent upon his reading" references Dickens recurring passion for education as a way out of poverty, and therefore a way to change society. It also explores Scrooge as a person with a creative imagination, suggesting his potential to change as he was not always closed minded. Moreover, we can infer he's using books as escapism from his lonely childhood in the same way he may have immersed himself in material values to escape the harsh memories of his past (e.g., death of his sister, Belle leaving him). This indicates that Scrooge's solitary, cold nature is a defense mechanism to avoid being vulnerable again as it's only caused him pain. This stands in contrast to the beginning where he's presented as an evil almost pantomine villain, his redemption seeming laughable. This emphasises the need to not judge people at face value, and practice good christian values like Fred, who is stubborn in his attempts and never gives up on Scrooge, which pays off at the end.

just sat my exam today thank you sir you are a lifesaver!

[@s.m0690]

Are these all the quotes you would need to get grade 9 or are there more, and is there a specific theme of essay that this particular analysis fits into. If anyone knows can you please tell me thank you

[@naomixxx6465]

Thank you for the video. I just went back to school today and found out that my school had decided to scarp poetry(which I had worked hard on) J+H and Macbeth entirely. I was looking forward to them... We are doing Romeo and Juliet 😐 (which we studied in Year 9) and I don't remember as well as AIC and A Christmas Carol-so I can't thank you enough for this video as I can literally not understand my teacher and she doesn't teach the top grade viewpoints.

[@MrSallesTeachesEnglish]

Good luck Naomi!

scrooge is just a representation of the selfish upper classes, but you could say Marley

bets scrooge video analysis on KZbin

[@ilb9387]

Is he a money lender because society criticizes him for it, or does Dickens use the Jewish stereotypes (money lender, big nose, Jewish name, miserly) to villainise Scrooge, as Jews were widely disliked and ostracised at the time

[@MrSallesTeachesEnglish]

I think that would be odd, as he is redeemed by Christmas, but you could argue it

[@lol-sz8wz]

I got a 5 😔

could you give some sentence starters sir

[@sawayachannel3880]

I'm sorry but your view of God is just purely Biased otherwise, I would say that would be a good revision video
