Weihnachtsabend (Eine Geistergeschichte) (Version 2)

by Charles Dickens

In der Weihnachtsnacht begegnet der alte und geizige Ebenezer Scrooge dem Geist seines verstorbenen Geschäftspartners Jacob Marley, der ihm eine düstere Zukunft prophezeit, wenn er sein Leben nicht ändert. Um Scrooge zu helfen, führt ihn eine Reihe von Geistern durch seine Vergangenheit, die Gegenwart und die Zukunft, um ihm die Folgen seiner Taten aufzuzeigen. Er sieht, wie sein Leben hätte sein können, wenn er nicht so gierig gewesen wäre, und die Notlage der armen Familie Cratchit. Scrooge wird schließlich mit der Hölle seiner eigenen Zukunft konfrontiert, wenn er sein Leben nicht ändert. Diese erschreckende Vision erweckt ihn zu seinem wahren Selbst, und er findet die Kraft, sein Herz zu öffnen, mitfühlend zu werden und sein Leben zum Besseren zu wenden.
