Chapter 1 The Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn Dialectical Journal

It was not until Huck discovered a sum of treasure that Pap decided Huck was “worth his time” and tried to implement himself into Huck’s life. This scenario presented many problems with the court, Pap’s right (or lack of) to raise Huck, Huck’s personal feelings

When he finds Jim again, he lies and tricks Jim saying that Jim was drinking and fell asleep and it was all a dream. However, when Jim sees the trash in the river, he knows Huck was lying to him.

  Pap speaks to the mercilessness and seriousness of human progress, which undermines to crush Huck. Pap in the long run abducts his own child compelling Huck to make an involved departure arrangement which included faking his own particular death. Unexpectedly, the same acculturated people who are not excessively worried over Huck's torment because of Pap are extremely inquisitive and amped up for finding his dead

I heard about it away down the river,too. That’s why I come. You git me that money to-morrow I want it”(Chapter 5 Pap’s Downfall Page 25). Right after Huck left he was furious at me but I didn’t seem to care.

Throughout the journey Jim steers Huck away from danger, or anything that will protect Huck, since Huck is also protecting Jim from being caught. For example, when they are on Jackson’s Island, Jim notices the change in mood of the birds predicting it will rain. Soon enough, a great storm appears, but suddenly, during the course of the storm a body washes downstream. Jim acts quickly and shields Huck from viewing the body. Jim states: “It’s a dead man.

When she treats her slave Jim as a commodity rather than a human being Miss Watson displays the brutality of a typical slave owner. After buying him from a local farm, she tears Jim away from his family. When Miss Watson sells him to a trader in the Deep South, Jim's hope of reuniting with his family disappears. When Jim sees his fate he decides to run away down the Mississippi River. There he sees Huck who is in search of freedom.

Also, pap is teaching Huck that you shouldn’t want the best for your family because he wanted

1. Why did Huck give his money to Judge Thatcher? Huck gave his money to Judge Thatcher so Huck's Father was not able to steal it from Huck because Huck had earned that money and he wasn’t willing to give it up to his drunken, absent father. Also, Judge Thatcher knows how Pap is and his tendencies and so the Judge just knew that the reason for Huck trying to get rid of his money as soon as possible without questioning him at all.

After observing Huck for over forty chapters, it is safe to conclude that this twelve year old boy is molded into a more magnificent character with every step of the way. He is taught by many masters, some who do not even realize that they are the teacher. He overcomes great fears and obstacles that he never thought possible in his wildest dreams. Huck triumphs over the ideas of slavery, religious hypocrisy, and the many stereotypes of the South without ever looking back. If there is any lesson prominent in Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, it is that people should never just blindly follow the crowd because it is the safest route.

Jim reluctantly tells Huck after he theorizes that Pap took his money, stating there is no possibility of that because the man who had died on the floating boat, “dat wuz him” (Twain 220). Jim does not know how Huck will react to him keeping the secret. He conceals the truth while risking his relationship in order to protect

After a couple of month kidnapping Huck and forcing to live in the woods with him, Huck’s father, Pap, one day gets extremely drunk and decides to denounce the government for their laws and its measurement of providing equality for the African American. Furthermore, he adds his rants about the government and complains about

Then huck again met two people one of them was a Theater person and the other was a person talking about being drunk was stupid but after he did that he got drunk. That did not put a good thing about him on him . So the townspeople did not like them and chased them out. Then they bumped into huck and got on the boat with Huck and Jim.

Pap is a free man who takes it for granted especially when he takes his anger on African Americans and his own son. He isn’t well educated but this quote by Huck is a hint towards Paps good side. “For what you want, above all things, on a raft, is for everybody to be satisfied, and feel right and kind towards others”. Huck never had that great of an education so how is this coming from his mouth. His dad must’ve told him about these things, since Pap has made many mistakes in life he has a good side to himself.

This would separate him from his family, which really upsets him. Meeting Huck on Jackson Island, the two venture on many adventures down the Mississippi River whilst trying to not get caught and taken back into slavery. He is highly superstitious. He is caring for Huck and his family. He believes Huck to be his only and best friend, and he ends up helping Huck more than Huck realizes.

All Huck needs is to believe in himself and not worry about any family. Pap is a terrible father to Huck “he is a monster, a vicious child abuser Mark Twain and Manhood 101 nouncing how the law could stand between him and "a man 's own son, which he has had all the trouble and all the anxiety and all the expense of raising," but actually bemoaning his inability to grab Huck 's money. Pap 's only sense of worth comes from asserting his meager white supremacy” (Obenzinger 101). Huck would rather act as though he was dead than live a life with a man like Pap as his father. After Pap finally comes back to see Huck and decides that he wants to live with him Huck starts to get uneasy.
