Detailed 8-page English Literature Essay Plans on Charles Dickens’ ‘A Christmas Carol’, Ebenezer Scrooge.
Essay Plans are organised in three sections:
Section 1: Scrooge leads a distant, separate existence from wider society whereby his self-imposed isolation reinforces his removal and disconnection from others. Scrooge's retreat from the human world emphasises the extent of his detachment. Scrooge ostracises himself which results in further fragmentation on both a personal and societal level, whereby Scrooge sees himself as separate from others and has no moral concern for the welfare of those less fortunate in society.
Section 2: From the outset of the novella, the reader is provided with an insight into Scrooge's fixation on money, an obsession that he pursues at the expense of all human relationships. Dickens creates a character who is not inherently evil, but one intently concerned with his economic wellbeing. In striving to prevent conditions of poverty, Scrooge's family and fiancée all become alienated, distanced and estranged. Scrooge eschews family and friendship and, in doing so, plunges himself into a psychological and moral paralysis whereby he is unable to recognise where true value, purpose and meaning emanates from.
Section 3: Scrooge’s transformation is facilitated by supernatural forces that compel him to transmute solitude into solidarity and despair into joy. Scrooge can and does achieve salvation and redemption through acknowledging his social responsibility and contributing to the welfare of others.
