  • サマリー

  • In October 1843, Friedrich Engels and Charles Dickens were both in Manchester, England, witnessing the worst squalor of the Industrial Revolution. Engels went on to write Das Kapital and The Communist Manifesto with his partner Karl Marx, and Dickens looked at the same situation and wrote A Christmas Carol.

    Charles Dickens' views on poverty are foundational to understanding modern politics. A close reading of Ebenezer Scrooge will not only help explain why A Christmas Carol has become a civic ritual, but how Dickens saw the world.

    George Orwell will be our guide on this journey, which takes us from Early Dickens' "Good Rich Man" characters to Late Dickens' guillotines and revolutions. And in the end, I'll reveal what I think is the true meaning of A Christmas Carol
