Key learning points: - Many Victorians embodied the personal values of individualism, self-reliance and a ‘Protestant' work ethic. - Scrooge embodies these values in Stave 1; he is depicted as “tight-fisted”, refusing to help Bob or donate to charity. - Dickens critiques these values when he describes Scrooge as a “sinner”, suggesting ruthless frugality is immoral. - In Stave 5, Scrooge embodies the opposite values: compassion, generosity, humility and integrity. - Dickens uses parallels between Stave 1 and 5 to emphasise the scale of Scrooge’s redemption.\n
