Abstract
Charles Dickens in his own century was immensely popular for his Christmas tales, so much so that he became synonymous with the Christmas holiday itself. For example, R.C. Churchill explains that as Theodore Watts-Dunton "was passing through the London streets on the day after Dickens's death in June 1870 … [he] heard a child inquire: "Will Father Christmas die too?'" (215).
