Talk:Ghost of Christmas Past
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I have a copy of the unabridged A Christmas Carol, and this spirit is named The Ghost of Christmas Past, not the Spirit of Christmas Past. Can we agree that this needs to be changed? Canonblack 03:10, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
When a story has been adapted as often as “A Christmas Carol”, people often combine details from the adaptations with the original story. I have made changes to this entry to bring it back to Dickens’ original work. MacPhilbin (talk) 16:03, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
In Dickens' original, Fan is described as "a little girl, much younger than the boy [Scrooge]" and she is in no other scene than the boarding school scene. It's only in the 1951 Alistair Sim movie version is she older and has a deathbed scene. I have changed the entry to match Dickens' original work. MacPhilbin (talk) 01:42, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Link to Testament of Job?
I'm not quite sure why this page links to the page on the Testament of Job. The two seem to have little or nothing to do with each other. That said, I'm not comfortable taking it down, in case there's a connection I haven't made.199.8.45.143 20:51, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
