Problemformulering
How does Dickens present the redeemed character of Scrooge?
Indledning
The book that the character Ebenezer Scrooge belongs to is called A Christmas Carol. In this book there are 5 staves, and throughout the staves Ebenezer Scrooge undergoes a transformation in his character.
In the first two staves, Ebenezer Scrooge is a very cold, bitter, and grumpy old man. He is so frugal and unempathetic that he does not even want to give back to the poor, even though he has far too much money to spend in his lifetime.

Uddrag
These two sentences highlight how Scrooge has changed, and redeemed his character. We can see that he is truly a new man.
The biggest difference from Scrooge in the beginning of A Christmas Carol and in the end of the story is that he became happier.
This is vastly different from Scrooge in the start of the novella. In the start of the novella, Scrooge is a cold, angry and grumpy old man, who only cares about business and money. He is so cold that no one wants to talk to him, he is extremely unapproachable.
