    Based on their interactions in chapters and three, it is established that Huck and Tom are foils for each other. These characters actions and traits contrast one another in a way that it gives the readers a better understanding of not only the characters, but also of the novel itself. So, it's evident in these first few chapters that Tom tends to great stock into literary models, Huck is as skeptical regarding that as he is with religion, amongst other things. Now, although Huck and Tom are technically set up as foils for each other, they do still have traits in common as well. One of them being the rambunctious, naive boyishness; they so much enjoy the foul language that they're capable of speaking, and pranks that the adult world would typically…

    Most books read in high school end up being stories of the coming of age time for the main character. For Huck Finn this is no exception. Throughout his journey along the river he changes as a person from being a boy to a man. He starts out as a carefree and uncivilized boy attempting to break free from the constrains of civilization. He takes nothing seriously and everything is a temporary pleasure for him. This attitude was clearly expressed when Huck and a few of the other boys meet with Tom Sawyer to discuss creating a band of robbers. Huck readily offers up Miss Watson, one of his guardians, as a sacrifice if he broke the rules. This earlier version of Huck didn’t think twice about killing off one of his loved ones. Later however, Huck’s morality develops and he matures into a thoughtful and loyal young man who understands such things such as “…it don’t make no difference whether you do right or wrong, a person’s conscience aint got no sense,” (175). It was a few moments like that in the book that show that Huck really came of age and that he had grown up and his character had really changed. The book is yet another coming of age phenomena that young adults can relate with and should read about. Huck’s very different lifestyle may…

    Huck Finn next goes to the grangerfords ranch, where there are definitely lots of problems. One is a vendetta between the two only neighbors you learn about in the area (the grangerfords and the shepardsons) and the other is the grangerfords insisting upon Huck coming to church with them, he probably would slip away, except they all have guns and he doesn’t think it’d be that smart. And then he sees one of the grangerford boys and his cousin killed right in front of his eyes and decides that the world and its many people is strange and untrustworthy. He seems, for a 14- 15 year old boy, to be very in tune to how everything works and how people could “screw” him over. He knows very well the ways of a con artist and how not to get caught which, in a society where you need to occasionally fend for yourself, he always…

    Thank you for another informative posting. I agree with your take on the anti-snitching may not just be a trust issues. It was nothing in my younger years to hear parents tell us to stop tattling on each other and like with anything, if one hears it enough it is instilled in them pretty much for life, that instills a fear of telling things especially when one knows that the law is being broken and it is a stigma that sticks for life and can affect future relationships and activities.…

    I have someone like that as well it is my grandpa from my mother’s side. Tata, me, my dad, and uncle enjoy hunting for dove and quall. Huck never had a big family so he could never enjoy family time he only had family time with Pap but he hated him and feared Pap extremely. But as Jim came along Huck started to view him as his second parent because he always taught Huck what not to do so he doesn’t get bad luck and teaches him never to get in a situation that he can’t escape. Huck has standards between right and wrong. Unlike Huck I have never made a scene where it looks like someone murdered me and escaped my parents. I mean that would still be pretty awesome to do that now but with all the tech nowadays it’s kind of hard because the government can track you with someone else’s…
