“Do any of us truly know others as well as we insist? Do we even truly know ourselves? How many times have we done something, said something we were ashamed of later, and we wonder in secret, “how could I have done that? Said that? Whatever got into me?” When all the time it wasn’t what got into us, but what was already there, deep inside the soul, lodged like a root from a giant oak tree just waiting for the right season to sprout.” –Linda Chaikin
Think of a time when you did something out of character—describe the incident.
Do you agree with the statement that it is impossible to truly know yourself?
In what ways do we, as individuals, try to know ourselves?
What do teenagers do to try to “find themselves”?

Jim teaches Huck SUPERSTION MOTIF—what are some superstitions? Borrowing versus stealing pg. 65
Pap’s view It’s okay as long as you are paying them back sometime
Widow’s view It’s evil and no one who is worth anything would do it
Jim’s view They’re both right—so how do they fix it?
Pick some things on the list never to borrow again: crabapples (gross) & p’simmons (not in season)
Calls Huck “trash” Establishes himself as the superior. What is the risk of this?
What power does Huck have? HUCKS RESPONSE: he apologizes to Jim, showing an
acceptance of equal rank if not inferiority.

Huck encounters—DEATH! and lots of it! Emmeline Grangerford (100-104)—she writes about
death. Why? If you hear about death constantly can you become
numb to it? How is this a part of Twain’s satire? Message:
Death is serious Emmeline cares about the order of speakers at the funeral Emmeline takes pride in her poetry Huck feels a connection and believes she was very sad
and depressed

Grangerfords and Shepherdsons: Twain’s Satire Turns Dark Targets the cult of Southern aristocracy and the
traditions of dueling and feuding. Thoughts on death—pg 107
It’s okay to kill if you’re in a feud! What is Twain’s tone toward the Grangerfords and
Shepherdsons? Negative—disdainful: seen through Huck’s observation:
pg. 109 church sermons Huck calls Col. Grangerford a gentlemen—what is
ironic about this? He goes around shooting at others all day long

Huck and Buck
What do you notice about the names? Huck becomes very attached to Buck—sees
something of himself in Buck Compare Buck and Tom:
proper behavior “It’s done because its done” no other reason. Warning against the dangers of blind following
Huck sees no honor or tradition in Huck sees no honor or tradition in it; he just sees dead young men. it; he just sees dead young men. First death—Buck diesFirst death—Buck dies

The king himself
The king is basically and idiot. BUT he is smarter than the churchgoers! What is Twain saying about religious fanatics?
Overkill and gullible
What is he saying about the average man? Easily manipulated
