Monologue On To Kill A Mockingbird
Today there was a holiday carnival and I saw Jem and Scout dressed up as a ham. I noticed this weird guy following them, I believe he goes by the name of Bob Ewell. I decided I would follow them as Atticus wasn't with them and I knew something was unusual. I'm super glad that I followed them because next thing I knew Bob tried stabbing them with a knife. I grabbed the knife and he didn't expect it. Next thing I knew I stabbed him and saved the two terrified kids. It was really dark out and it all happened so fast.

    To Kill a Mockingbird Essay

    Learning lessons is a very important part of growing up. Children learn new things every day of their life. Even adults learn something every once in a while. In the novel To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, the character Scout is very adventurous and loves to learn; she has many experiences that lead to her being taught many different things about life. On page 12 of Cliff Notes for this novel, John Sova writes “each experience is designed to give Scout a further understanding about certain things in life and about people. In one way or another, every episode leads to some type of learning experience for Scout”. Scout learns a lot of different things about her town’s views, the people who she’s heard about but never really knew, and how to treat others the proper way.…

    Atticus Finch Monologue Essay

    My name is Jean-Louise Finch, daughter of Atticus, some people call me Scout. We are all here today to remember Atticus. He was the type of person who always said what he thought, no matter what the subject was over. When Jem and I got our first guns, he said “Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit’em, but remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.”…

    What Does Jem Learn In To Kill A Mockingbird

    The night that Bob Ewell tried to murder both Jem and her, Scout’s eyes had been opened. Her eyes could finally see and understand what was going on. She had finally met Boo Radley, not in the way she had expected, but she had met him. As Scout returns home, from walking Boo home she says, “As I made my way home, I thought Jem and I would get grown bet there wasn’t much else left for us to learn, except possibly algebra” (Lee 374). Here, Scout shows that she has learned many life lessons in the past few years. Unlike most children, Scout has experienced more life changing moments than most. For example, she has learned what responsibility is by watching her father take on dangerous cases. She has also experienced life threatening events. Not only did she manage to get through those times, but she also learned not to judge a book by it’s…

    Atticus Finch Monologue

    Outside, the greens and browns run past me like dogs chasing cats as the tracks flew by like little birds. The train nosily rattles underneath my seat, rumbling along with the rocks. I am on train from Maycomb County back to Meridian, Mississippi. This summer’s been good to me in Maycomb. When I first arrived in Maycomb, it was a disappointment, all I found was boredom. Although, I changed my mind the day I met a funny-named boy who had soft brown hair and his sister, who lived in breeches. They were called, Jem and Scout from the loving Finch Family. The Finches consist of the couple, Atticus and his dead wife, their children, Jem and Scout along with Calpurnia who works for them.…

    To Kill A Mockingbird Quote Analysis

    “He’s nothin’ but a nigger-lover!” is one of the many so called inappropriate texts from one of the best-loved stories of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. The use of the ‘N’ word should remain in the book because it describes the setting of an important period of time, and shows mind set of racist characters. It is simply used for historical recognition and not as an insult.…

    Atticus Finch Monologue

    A lot has happened since the day that I stood on Boo Radley’s porch and looked out into the street. I had finally been able to see the world from his perspective. It was on that day that I truly learned that a person cannot be understood until I stood in their shoes and walked around in them. From that day forward, I vowed that I would one day teach my children the wise words that Atticus Finch had taught me when I was a child. Seventeen years have passed since that day.…

    To Kill A Mockingbird Quote Analysis

    Imagine owning someone. Imagine being able to control every movement of their fragile bones. Imagine making a marionette out of an innocent person. Now consider someone owning you. How would it feel, having to perform every task asked of you and being unable to say no? Perhaps that is how blacks felt in the when slavery began. Long since 1619, when the first African slaves were brought to Jamestown, an American colony, whites were deemed to be privileged.…

    To Kill a Mockingbird Essay

    It’s a sin to kill mockingbirds. That’s what Atticus told Jem when he acquired his first weapon. He told him it’s a sin to harm anything that doesn’t commit any wrong, a message the American South needed to hear desperately at the time Harper Lee was writing. In the book, the children have been relentlessly making fun of Boo Radley, but Jem soon realizes that Boo is not what their prejudices had caused them to make him out to be. He learns from this, and begins questioning his beliefs. Lee uses Jem’s experiences with prejudice to introduce the message into the story, which is a message that is also meant to influence the racist American south.…

    To Kill A Mockingbird Essay

    “The witness of the state… have presented themselves to you… in cynical confidence that their testimonies won’t be doubted [because of]... the evil assumption - that all Negroes lie, that all Negroes are basically immoral beings.” (Lee 273). This was a line quoted from Atticus during Tom Robinson's court case in To Kill a Mockingbird. To Kill a Mockingbird took place in the early 1930’s in Maycomb County, Alabama, when many people were strongly prejudiced against blacks. Atticus said this line not only to save Tom Robinson, a black man, from the wrongful verdict of rape, but potentially even some of his town from the stifling grip of prejudice. In To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee demonstrated that prejudice causes lack of empathy and bias; this was shown through the words and reactions to conflicts of prejudiced characters.…

    To Kill A Mockingbird Calpurnia Monologue

    In the midst of one mild night, i was still, on the rocker seat out on the front porch. There was a a bit of dusky reflection from the upstairs windows. I could hear the crickets and their very soothing sounds to my ears, leaving me to reflect in utter peace. Sometimes, i go here every evening to have a moment to myself, taking pleasure in the serenity and hushed noises down the street. Nostalgia comes across my thoughts as I wonder of what it would have been like with Scout and Jem’s mother around. If only the children and I, especially Scout so that she could get a clear picture of her could see her one last time. As I paint her in my head, I remember how she was and am grateful. Her sweetness, beauty and devotion to justice as well as to the family were always visible, ever since i saw her for the first time, when i was first elected to the state legislature. It’s a pity you can’t find many good-hearted citizens like that these days in our small world.…
