In literature, Bob Cratchit and Tiny Tim from Charles Dickens' timeless tale "A Christmas Carol" taught us about compassion and the true spirit of giving during challenging times. Gerard Manley Hopkins emerged as a poetic genius in 1844; his verses painted vivid landscapes within our minds while capturing the essence of nature's beauty through words alone. The Three Musketeers continued their daring escapades throughout C19th France under Alexandre Dumas' penmanship. Their adventures inspired countless readers with tales filled with bravery, loyalty, and honor. Far away in Ethiopia's history books resided Menelik II - an influential leader who united his people against colonial forces while preserving their rich cultural heritage. James Horlick introduced Vfair attendees to an innovative beverage called malted milkshake at the 1909 event. Little did he know that this creation would become beloved worldwide for generations to come. J. M. W. Turner once again graced our narrative through pencil drawings that showcased not only his artistic versatility but also glimpses into the depths of human emotion captured on paper.
