The Key Three: Focusing on Social Responsibility in A Christmas Carol
Update: 2025-09-15
Description
In this Key Three mini-episode of Study Sessions, we explore the theme of social responsibility in Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.
Designed to help you tackle the homework task with confidence, this shorter episode focuses on three essential quotations – one from the beginning, one from the middle, and one from the end of the novella. We’ll look at:
- Scrooge’s cold dismissal of the poor as “surplus population”
- The Ghost of Christmas Present’s warnings, including the figures of Ignorance and Want
- Scrooge’s final promise to “honour Christmas” and live a life of generosity
By the end of the episode, you’ll see how Dickens uses Scrooge’s journey to argue that society has a duty to care for its most vulnerable members.
Perfect for quick, focused revision – one theme, three key quotations, and a clear path to exam success.
