Revision as of 02:36, 22 October 2019
“ | There is no doubt that Marley was dead. This must be distinctly understood, or nothing wonderful can come of the story I am going to relate. | ” |
— Charles Dickens, establishing a prime fact about his ghost story of Christmas |
A Christmas Carol is a novel written by Charles Dickens, first published by Chapman & Hall on December 19, 1843. The story is about a bitter and miserly moneylender named Ebenezer Scrooge, who goes through an ideological, ethical, and rather emotional transformation resulting from supernatural visits from the ghost of his deceased business partner, Jacob Marley, and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come.
Since its first publication, the story has been adapted for theatre, film, television, radio, and opera numerous times. The various adaptations have included straightforward retellings, modernizations, parodies, and sequels.
