In this research, the author disguises about the reason why women have benefits of joining the political life. Majority people, especially traditional people believe that, women do not have any abilities and rights to join the court, just like how Atticus says in the novel. However, this research provides many supportive arguments and examples, and shows that not only women have good chance to contribute into the politic life, but can also do well.
To kill a mockingbird can mean many things. It’s the title of a book that has been bought 40 million times. But, it also has a definition. To kill a mockingbird means to destroy innocence. The theme of my literary analysis is mockingbirds. Mockingbirds in TKAM are innocent things tainted by the skewed society of Maycomb. Some of these mockingbirds are Boo Radley, Tom Robinson, and the children. To Kill a Mockingbird is a book set in a small Alabama town in the 1930’s. The main character and narrator is Jean Louise Finch, but is almost always called by her nickname, Scout. Scout, her brother, and her summer friend Dill get into all kinds of mischief while living in the racist society of a 1930’s Alabama town. Scout’s dad, Atticus, is a prominent lawyer in Maycomb and is appointed to a controversial case, and is defending a black man. Scout and her brother, Jem go through many troubles and learn many lessons from the days leading up to, and during the trial. The trail makes their family some friends and a lot of enemies. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee is a story of courage and despair. Throughout TKAM, mockingbirds are used as an example of something innocent being tainted by the skewed society of TKAM. Some great examples of these are Boo Radley, Tom Robinson, and the children.
There are couple of reason that Mr.Raymond act drunk and one of them is that he wants people to leave him alone.
“It's right hard to say," she said. "Suppose you and Scout talked colored-folks' talk at home it'd be out of place, wouldn't it? Now what if I talked white-folks' talk at church, and with my neighbors? They'd think I was puttin' on airs to beat Moses, "But Cal, you know better," I said. “It's not necessary to tell all you know. It's not ladylike—in the second place, folks don't like to have somebody around knowing more than they do. It aggravates 'em. You're not gonna change
Throughout time authors have used symbolism to express a greater meaning in simple words because it allows readers to connect the real world to what they are reading in an abstract way, like philosophers using the dove to represent peace and fire to represent ferocity; in To Kill A Mockingbird , Harper Lee uses symbolism to make a point about maturity in particular when Miss Maudie gives Jem cake, when scout tries to learn innocence and when scout tries to learn how to observe a situation from someone else's perspective.
Coming-of-age does not just involve cakes, parties, and grandparents, it is something much more exciting than that. Coming-of-age is the time when children gain new perspectives that will forever change their life. These perspectives may come from a great teacher, a mission trip, or even a disease. Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird is an excellent example of gaining perspectives. To Kill a Mockingbird is not only an intense book about a young girl’s adventure, but it also has a deeply philosophical meaning. David Dobb’s “Beautiful Brains” is also a good example of how coming-of-age involves gaining new perspectives. “Beautiful Brains” explains the science behind why coming-of-age involves gaining new perspectives.

The concept of courage is more philosophical rather than something that is real. Its a fact that can’t be substantiated, courage is a non tangible feeling that lies within one's heart and psyche. It isn’t something that you're born with, it's something you work for as you grow older. When the day comes when you have to battle the inner demons that make your life discontented you’ll need to conquer in order to overcome it once and for all.After you overcome the thing that's pains you the most you’ll have the face of courage. The novel, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, it revolves around the idea of courage but to the farthest extremity. The characters are more than just literary entities that inhabit the book, they are individuals
Our past influences everything we do; from day to day life, to the creative projects we share with the world. This certainly holds true for Harper Lee and Albert Camus, both of whom are authors of award winning novels. These authors allowed their backgrounds to shine through in their writing. Even though some points are more obvious than others, it is easy to find references to the authors’ lives in their stories.
What: “To Kill a Mocking Bird” portrays a society that is supremely, staggeringly unfair. The story takes place in the U.S. South in the 1930s in a small town where racism is part of the very fabric of society. Faced with this situation, an equality minded person, is tempted to speak their mind, however keeping their head down until then. Some people in the novel do just that, but few decide to act on the side of justice and equality, even though they think it’s mostly hopeless. “To Kill a Mocking Bird” does not sugarcoat the results, however it does suggest that
Immigrants from all over the world come to America with the idea of freedom in mind. Frequently, people think of the type of freedom found in America as a life without constraints, a place where they can express their opinions and act without judgement. The New Oxford English Dictionary defines freedom as “the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants without hindrance or restraint” (“Freedom”). The promise of freedom in America brings hope, but this hope is not always necessarily fulfilled. Throughout American history, people have fought for many freedoms. While the government integrates these freedoms into laws, people hoping for a life “without hindrance” may find that many times, they still run into obstacles that challenge their

We talked last week that love is the answer. What our world needs now is love, sweet love. Three practical questions to help us find our bearings as we try and grow in our ability to love. How do we see ourselves? How do we see others? And most importantly, how we see God affects how we love.
In what ways is Harper Lee’s ‘To kill a mockingbird’ a classic –by Emma Chen
When I entered the courtroom I felt more nervous than I ever had in any other case. Tom Robinson’s face reflected an uneasy fear and nervousness that I understood. He was depending on me to convince the jury of his innocence, although the odds were heavily stacked against us. The audience was split up in the courthouse, but the tension in the atmosphere was overwhelming from both whites and blacks. The jury had already made their decision before stepping into the court, but if even one could be swayed by the hard evidence that I presented then everything would be worth it. The nearby window held my attention for a while with its endless skies full of promise of freedom for everyone, unlike most who have gathered in the bottom section of the courthouse. While I questioned the
Imagine you are a lawyer tasked with an impossible case, and everybody in your community is against you, but still there is a shred of hope you cling to. What might that be you ask? That to which you cling are your morals. In To Kill a Mockingbird Atticus Finch had been given the Tom Robinson case, where a black man was convicted of raping a white woman. As a single father of two children, he continues to reinforce his values throughout the trial and during his daunting task of raising his children. In To Kill A Mockingbird what Harper Lee suggests about the nature of morals is that you should try to stand up for what you believe in even if people oppose or reject your ideals. Even when faced with an insurmountable opposition you should stand up for your morals because in the end if your don't follow your beliefs you are just contributing to the problem. We should try to create a voice for what we believe in and impress that upon the next generation so they can continue to exercise their beliefs to make the world a better place.
In both almost lynching scenes from Chapter 22 in Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Chapter 14 in To Kill a Mockingbird, the reader is able to notice certain similarities and dissimilarities. In to kill a mocking bird, Scout’s anxious rambling provoke the mob to disperse because the crowd conceived that scout is a naïve child and that their actions are inappropriate. On the other hand in the adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Sherburn mentions he is secure from them until the night comes and they go after him, because they are wimps and he is a “real man” giving a judgement of their flaws as entity. However, in both stories there is a humorous tone. For example, in the adventures of Huckleberry Finn, when the king and duke developed a show called
