    Atticus Finch Classic

    Aunt Alexandra tells Jem and Scout they have to act like Finches. Initially, Atticus agrees with her, but says differently while he puts his children to bed, that “I don’t want you to remember it. Forget it.” (178). Atticus doesn’t want himself or his kids to act like the rest of their family. He likes everyone to think for themselves and be their own person. Again, Atticus is genuine when Heck is telling Atticus that Jem did not kill Bob Ewell, but in his shock, Atticus doesn’t believe him and thinks Tate is trying to cover up what Jem did. Atticus tells Mr. Tate that, “I don’t live that way.” (365). Atticus is an honest person, and he always tries to be honest and outright. He doesn’t act different around certain people or in certain social settings. As the Finches’ neighbor Miss Maudie Atkinson says, “Atticus Finch is the same in his house as he is on the public streets.” (61).…

    Atticus Finch

    In the 1930's in southern Alabama, rape and attempted rape was considered a capital offense. This was just one of the measures taken to ensure the safety of Southern women, who in the eyes of men, were fragile and innocent. As a result of the Ladies Law, men could even be sentenced to jail time for using profane language around a lady. This conservative culture, combined with prejudices leftover from the civil war, spelled trouble for any black man who spent his time in company with white women. In Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird, Tom Robinson, an African American, is charged with the rape of a young white woman. Tom Robinson is very fortunate to be given Atticus Finch as his defense attorney. Atticus Finch is an outstanding lawyer whose moral responsibility and personal investment gave Tom Robinson the best chance at being acquitted.…

    The Finches, consisting of Scout, Jem, and Atticus are very well educated. Scout, who started the first grade, already knew how to read, thanks to Atticus and his newspaper. Dill, the children’s summer time friend, used his first words of greeting when they first met, to brag about knowing how to read at the age of seven. Jem responded to him, saying that Scout could read ever since she was a baby. Scout wasn’t looking forward to her first day of school. The imperceptive young teacher from out of town, simply did not understand Maycomb, and told Scout to stop reading at home, something a teacher in the modern world would never say. The Finches are better off than most people, including the fact that Atticus told his children they were poor. They have a nice house, big enough to allow each to have their own bedroom, including a guest room. They also have a dining room, parlor, and a kitchen.…
