Calpurnia Research Paper

Calpurnia does not seem who she seems to be because she has a life other than being a cook for the Finch family and She treats Jem and Scout as her kids. Calpurnia has a life because she has a son named Zeebo, She goes to church every Sunday at First Purchase African M.E. Church. Also, she has a life because she does not live with the Finch family but lives in her own house. Also, she is not who she seems because she treats Jem and Scout as her kids. She treats them as her own kids by making them clean up good for church. “If Calpurnia had ever bathed me roughly before, it was nothing compared to her supervision of that Saturday night’s routine,” (Lee 134). This is important because it shows that Cal wanted Scout to be nice and clean for church the next day. When they get to church she acts like they are her own by defending them, when they are confronted by Lula and when they sit

written as an opening statement on cascadianow.org. CascadiaNow! claims not to be a political movement in the respect that they have a military or sharply defined borders, but because they are a nation from their individuals and communities who reflect related ideas and goals, desires and needs, and a unique cultural identity. In a recent interview NPR, founding member of Cascadia, Paul Nelson states “The thing that really sets us apart from other movements is we’re not basing our arguments around what we find wrong with the US and

As I am reading this story, I questioned whether Calipurnia or Aunt Alexandra is a better mom. I think Calipurnia is a better mom for many different reasons. She puts more time into the kids than Aunt Alexandra, and she genuinely cares for the kids and wants to keep them safe. To start off with, Calipurnia puts a lot more time into the kids than Aunt Alexandra does. On many occasions Calipurnia has made things for Scout and Jem to eat or drink like a mother would. For example, she said, “she did give Jem a hot biscuit-and-butter which he tore in half and shared with me” (Lee 137). This shows that not only would Calipurnia make their every meal, but she would sometimes give the kids some snacks while she was cooking in the kitchen too. In addition, Scout said that, “We skulked around the kitchen until Calipurnia threw us out” (Lee 137).

In the story, Calpurnia plays a role that allows the reader to explore the theme of racism, prejudice, and as well as femininity. Calpurnia acts as a mother figure to both Scout and Jem, especially since they lost their mom when they were young. For Scout specifically, Calpurnia has a huge feminine influence as well since Scout basically grew up without her biological mom and Calpurnia was the woman that helped her get dress, taught her how to write, and took care of her since she was young. Being a tomboy, Scout doesn’t see the benefits of being a lady like how Aunt Alexandra wants her to. However, she learns by watching Calpurnia that “there was some skill involved in being a girl” (154). This shows that Calpurnia, although

In a well organized response, compare the traits displayed by the maids in The Help to those of Calpurnia. You need to use at least 3 quotes from TKMB that support the qualities represented by Calpurnia. The Help Response Calpurnia in To Kill a Mockingbird is very respectful and loyal. This is very much comparable to the movie The Help when Aibileen tries to be very loyal to Celia by taking care of her child.

Calpurnia explains her understanding of different kinds of people. Calpurnia also sets an example for Scout by telling her what it means to be ladylike.

Calpurnia, or “Cal”, was the Finch’s African-American housekeeper and cook. Her being a black, middle-aged woman in a white dominated society, we can already infer she has experienced great racial injustices. Throughout the novel, we see significant and noticeable changes in the main characters, but little development in Calpurnia´s character. Before you discard this essay on what was supposed to be about a chosen character changing due to social and racial injustices throughout the book, give the thesis some thought. Scout is the narrator of the book, therefore we are seeing changes through her point of view; so we only see Calpurnia changing through the eyes of Scout, but they were not in actuality

With a completely different relationship with her husband, Calpurnia’s unending care and worry for her husband proves to be vital to the development of the story. Following the norm brought about by her time, Calpurnia was dominated by her husband, Caesar,

After reading chapters four through nine I can tell that Atticus is a good parent and respects others very much. He treats Calpurnia very kindly and is grateful for her. Atticus helps her when she needs it like he drove her back to her house because she thinks it will be warmer at her own house. Atticus agrees to defend Tom Robinson because Calpurnia knows his family and wants to help. He listened to Calpurnia even though he was defending a African American. He still wanted to help Calpurnia defend him. He knew he would be treated badly by the city but he didn’t care. She also helps him take care of the kids and she acts like a mother figure in the house. Calpurnia was normally at the house during the day and Atticus was there at night. Atticus

Calpurnia helps Scout become more lady like by using manners and teaching her how to treat others. For example “ Yo folks might be better than the Cunninghams but it don’t count for nothing the way you're disgracing them” (Lee 33) Calpurnia teaches Scout proper manners when she corrects scout for thinking that she is better than Walter Cunningham. Calpurnia Also teaches scout to be respectful. For example “ There’s some folks who don't eat like us, she whispered fiercely, ‘ but you ain’t called on to contradict ‘em at the table when they don't. That boy’s yo’ comp'ny and if he wants to eat up the tablecloth you let him, you hear?” (Lee 31). Calpurnia is like a mother figure to Scout and Jem. She taught scout proper manners and how to treat others with respect. Without Calpurnia Scout wouldn't act very lady like. In the example this is scout’s first lesson on being respectful to others who are different. Therefore without Calpurnia Scout wouldn’t learn how to respect and sympathize with others who are
