The True Outsiders

Why The Outsiders? S.E. Hinton never mentioned the word outsiders in her book The Outsiders. People wonder why The Outsiders is the title of her book, because it was never mentioned. S.E. Hinton has a creative way of writing because you can always picture what she is saying. Even though S.E. Hinton never called anyone an outsider in The Outsiders, it is obvious that she not only included herself as an outsider but also the main character, Ponyboy.

To conclude, The outsiders is a story about two different socisl groups, the Socs and the Greasers. Both groups feel like outsiders at times, but which of these two groups are the real outsiders? Or are the real outsiders the people who see beyond society groups? Maybe we all are

The Novel The Outsiders reveals that it is the “real” and “raw” moments the define an individual as human. In these moments of authentic and selfless love the attributes of individual become more definitive then social class, or reputation. Through examining Dallas Winston and his love for Johnny and Randy’s emotional encounter with Pony boy Hinton’s most haunting and enduring argument become evident, that self discovery imposed by love and loss has no sides but the outside.

What makes up an “Outsider”? In 1967, Oklahoma S.E. Hinton decided to write a book called the “Outsiders”. Social groups are related to Outsiders by making you feel like you’re separated from the rest of society. The Outsiders consist of two groups of teenagers called the greasers and the Socs (Socials). The true Outsiders are those who think differently about the world.

Have you ever felt like an outsider? “The Outsiders” is a book that takes place in the 1960’s Tulsa, Oklahoma where two groups of teenagers the “Socs” and the “Greasers” are constantly arguing and fighting. Which group is more of an outsider? Is it the Socs? The Greasers? Or something else entirely?

The story The Outsiders, written by S.E. Hinton, was a popular novel because of how realistic it was. The novel was successful because it included famous people and items from the 1960s. These items allowed for people to read the story and make connections. One of the topics that was referenced in the book was Perry Mason. Perry Mason was a popular television series that made readers understand how Ponyboy viewed the courtroom.

Remember in Junior High and High School when there were groups of different people? Like the football, basketball and cheerleaders hang out in a big group, but in the other corner there are the gamers, the book smart kids and then the others that don’t fit in. So now I am asking you as a reader, what do you think? Are outsiders simply those who are misjudged or misunderstood? In my opinion, I think that the outsiders are both misunderstood and misjudged.

I believe the Outsiders are representation sped up by the greasers like Ponyboy, Dally, Soda, and the others. They are extracted from others and are people that don’t fit in with the crowd. The factor is they are poor and are unnoticed unless they make trouble. These are boys who don’t care they smoke and act like a family. Unlike the other gangs this has no leader and have individual leaders. Like for these examples to use Outsider it needs to be defined. Outsider or an Outsider is a man or woman or group whom doesn’t fit with the rest of the crowd and ends up sticking out like a ball in a haystack it is extractable but easier than the needle. There are many ways to describe this like how in a crowd of people the Socials could spot Ponyboy

On the contrary, the true outsiders are the people who don’t put themselves into any group. The people who focus on other more important stuff rather than the Greasers and the Socs are the true

Which group in the Outsiders are the real outsiders? If you were wondering what an outsider is, outsiders are basically a group/person that doesn't have all the thing a everyday Joe would have. They aren't as privileged and don't have many expectations. In this book, the outsiders to choose from are the Greasers and Socs and/or individuals.

Some people experience emotional journeys in their lives. In S.E. Hinton’s, The Outsiders and in Thanhha Lai’s, Inside Out and Back Again, the major characters experience emotional journeys. Ponyboy from The Outsiders experiences a difficult relationship during his journey. Ha from Inside Out & Back Again has to leave her home as part of her journey. Ha and Ponyboy both meet emotional challenges in early life that they have to overcome.

‘The Outsiders’, written by S.E. Hinton, follows the story of Ponyboy Curtis and his group of friends, known as ‘Greasers’, and their rivalry with the ‘Socs’ or socials. The novel portrays themes of friendship, courage, honour and divisions between the rich and poor. Hinton was born in 1948 and grew up through the 50s and 60s. She began writing the novel aged fifteen and published it three years later. The novel was inspired by her own frustrations with class and social divisions through her high school years.

The protagonist of a story is the main character who traditionally undergoes some sort of change. Pony Curtis is the teenage narrator and protagonist of the novel. When his parents were killed in a car accident, Darry, his twenty-year-old brother, began to provide for him. He resents Darry’s bullying manner, not realizing that he does so because he loves him and wants him to make something of himself. Pony belongs to an eastside gang of poor teenagers, called the Greasers; their rivals are the Socs, the rich kids living on the west side of town.

In the novel “The Outsiders” by S.E. Hinton, the protagonist Ponyboy struggles with many common problems that a teenager encounters. One of these problems is when he struggles with remaining loyal to the Greasers and living a moral life. The Greasers don’t have many morals except for looking out for each other, and that is how most of them lose their innocence. This is the problem that Ponyboy must deal with. He strives to maintain the Greasers’ tough reputation while desiring to protect the innocence he has left from childhood. They will often lie, cheat, steal, and kill in order to protect their brothers. Ponyboy somewhat objects to this principle
