In the Christmas carol "Bring a Torch, Jeanette, Isabella," Jeanette and Isabella are asked to bring a torch to light up the stable where the Baby Jesus is born. The song describes the scene of their journey to see the newborn child.
He carries a torch.
The ghost of Christmas present
Incence is sprinkled on people to make them happy and greatful for the Christmas Spirit
The torch symbolizes warm, inviting light and represents hope and generosity. Its presence in Stave Three of A Christmas Carol helps to transform people's attitudes, leading them to open their hearts to the Christmas spirit and embrace compassion and goodwill towards others.
The spirit's torch in 'A Christmas Carol' represents enlightenment and the power to shine a light on the truths of one's life. It symbolizes the ability to reveal hidden aspects of oneself and the potential for change and redemption. The torch is a guiding light that leads Scrooge towards self-awareness and transformation.
In Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol," the torch described is likely a long wooden stick with a cloth soaked in oil wrapped around one end, which is then set on fire. The torch would emit a flickering flame, providing light and warmth in the darkness. The description may vary depending on the specific adaptation or illustration of the story.
I didn't think the Spirit looked strange at all. Given the non-existent graphic capabilities at the time the movie produced, it wasn't possible to make the spirit more 'ghostly' looking or transparent.
In "The Christmas Carol", Dickens described it as an "incense" and it didn't come from a horn of plenty but from a torch. The torch could perform many good things. For instance, the Ghost sprinkled some of his incense on the dinners that some "poor revellers" were carrying. We can assume that it made the food heartier or even tastier. Also, two men were quarreling and a couple of "drops" from the torch restored their good humor. As a Ghost in a work of fiction, I guess the torch could do just about anything the Ghost pleased. It is one of the greatest inventions that Dickens had in telling this wonderful story.
