Christmas through... Time Travel
Is it that time of the year already? Time flies even without... Time Travel. You may hate Christmas (you are not alone, think of Scrooge or the Grinch) or you may love it, but we all have to admit that Christmas is an inherent part of the western cultural traditions. If you are interested in Christmas through time you may enjoy these links:
Christmas through Time
Christmas through time: Medieval and Tudor
And, what about Christmas and Time Travel? How many times these two themes are set side by side in Literature?
Just a few examples:
The Time Machine, the Medical Man makes reference to Christmas at some point in Chapter I (in the 1960 film the connection is far more explicit).
A Christmas Carol, also features Time Travel and it appeared 52 years prior to the publication of The Time Machine by H.G. Wells.
Home in Time for Christmas, not even similar to the previous two.
A Time-Travel Christmas, short stories.

The Ghosts and the Machine: A Christmas Carol and Time Travel by Pete Orford
