About the book

Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly old man, is visited on Christmas Eve by the ghost of his dead partner and three spirits. They show him scenes from his past, present and future.

“I HAVE endeavoured in this Ghostly little book, to raise the Ghost of an Idea, which shall not put my readers out of humour with themselves, with each other, with the season, or with me.” A Christmas Carol · Charles Dickens

MARLEY was dead: to begin with.

말리는 죽었습니다. 우선.

There is no doubt whatever about that.

그것에 대해서는 조금도 의심의 여지가 없습니다.

The register of his burial was signed by the clergyman, the clerk, the undertaker, and the chief mourner.

그의 장례 기록부에는 성직자, 서기관, 장례업자, 그리고 상주가 서명했습니다.

Scrooge signed it: and Scrooge's name was good upon 'Change, for anything he chose to put his hand to.

스크루지가 서명했습니다. 그리고 스크루지의 이름은 그가 손대고 싶은 모든 것에 대해 'Change'에 유효했습니다.

Old Marley was as dead as a door-nail.

늙은 말리는 완전히 죽었네.

Mind! I don't mean to say that I know, of my own knowledge, what there is particularly dead about a door-nail.

명심하세요! 제가 아는 한, 문못에 특별히 죽은 것이 무엇인지 안다고 말하려는 게 아닙니다.

I might have been inclined, myself, to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade.

나 자신도 관못을 철물 업계에서 가장 쓸모없는 물건으로 여길 수도 있었을 것이다.

But the wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile; and my unhallowed hands shall not disturb it, or the Country's done for.

그러나 우리 조상들의 지혜는 비유에 담겨 있으니, 나의 불경스러운 손으로 그것을 건드리지 않으리라. 그렇지 않으면 나라가 망할 것이다.
