Here is a description of this classic Christmas Story:
This edition of Dickens’s immortal classic, A CHRISTMAS CAROL, features the original illustrations by John Leech, as well as another 20 woodcut engravings by Sol Eytinge Jr. from the 1869 American edition by Ticknor & Fields. Beautifully designed and carefully proofed for digital publication, this Top Five Classic edition includes a short introduction and bio.
Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly old curmudgeon who spurns Christmas as a “humbug,” is given the chance to redeem himself through the intervention of four Spirits on Christmas Eve. If reading Dickens’s most beloved story doesn’t put you in the true spirit of Christmas, you may be beyond redemption.
As Scrooge’s nephew Fred said, “I have always thought of Christmas time . . . as a good time: a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time: the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys.”
Or as Tiny Tim put it more succinctly, “God bless us every one!”

Per rassicurarci, potremmo cominciare col dire che la “cosa democrazia” diventa rilevante quando la “parola democrazia” non pi in discussione. Siamo una democrazia giovane ma ormai consolidata e non revocabile. Dunque si pu ragionare senza rischi e senza ambiguit sul funzionamento delle nostre istituzioni e del meccanismo democratico. Potremmo dire che finalmente la societ non si accontenta pi di avere la democrazia, non le basta contemplarla, come un orizzonte statico di riferimento, immutabile: pretende di misurarla nel suo divenire. C per fortuna un della societ anche rispetto alle regole di funzionamento del sistema che, nel momento in cui vengono riconosciute, sono anche valutate e giudicate. E c per fortuna una vitalit della democrazia che si muove e muta insieme con la societ che le d forma. Non si tratta di una fede immobile o, peggio, di un Altrimenti sarebbe inutile misurarla nel tempo. Il rosso graffito splende in tutta la sua sfacciataggine su una colonna del ponte di corso Francia.
