Thesis Flashcards
How is poverty presented?
. Focus on poverty and social injustice underpins the novella as it is introduced from the offset of ACC through the charity collectors who come to visit Scrooge which immediately makes the readers aware of the “poor and destitute” in society who are suffering “greatly”.
. Dickens = author who had strong social commitment which translated into his work to convey his political and ethical statements.
.ACC = political diatribe
. Prominent way Dickens conveys the theme = exploration of his characters which is both practical and emotive but ultimately allows readers to become more receptive to his message and lesrn from characters = provoking internal change
. Scrooge’s transformation, characterisation of Ignorance and Want, the struggles of the Crachits
