    The prison door is important to the Puritan social order, whose unbendable certainty condemns and confines Hester. Like the door (oak is among the heaviest and most grounded of woods), the Puritans are fearless in their moral quality and along these lines, unsympathetic in their judgements. The iron spikes reinforce this delineation, drawing in thought with respect to the gathering's merciless judgements and reformatory character. The usage of oak in the line emphasizes the centrality of the prison and its importance in their world.…

    In the novel, "To Kill a Mockingbird", the character Scout plays an important role; Harper Lee portrays her as straightforward, abrupt, impulsive, and even just plain rude. One example of this is when Scout says, "He ain't company, Cal, he's just a Cunningham," (Lee 24) in reference to when Walter Cunningham was over at the Finch residence, and Scout disapproved of the way he ate his food, that is, with a liberal amount of syrup. This shows that she is unafraid to speak her mind. Also, it shows that she is very opinionated about classes of people, as the Cunningham boy was of a lower class than Scout's own family.…
