Huck Finn2
In the novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Mark Twain shows how Huck evolves in every adventure and how he is growing in every aspect of his life. It is easy to forget that Huck is only a twelve-year old boy, when we see him out smart grown men. The most significant part of the whole novel is the decision that Huck has to make about Jim. Huck would never turn his back on Jim now because he is his only family. Huck also grows up in the sense that he loses his innocence: He begins to understand the hypocrisy of society. He sees the Grangerfords killed by the Shephardsons, and he sees the Duke and the King manipulate the townspeople out of their money. He starts realizing he can converse with the opposite sex and that he can tell the truth. Even though Huck is un-educated, he learns and understands many things about people and himself. Huck goes through many trails that initiate him into the adult world. Huck takes on the role of a "rebel" and goes against Paps authority.Huck starts getting tired of Paps authority Pap has not been a "father figure" and Huck does not really know what it is like to feel loved. Huck acts mature in the sense that he can take care of himself, but deep-down inside he is scared and ye
Huck shows another sign of maturity by not shying away from girls He starts to notice the opposite sex and meets Mary Jane. He enjoys conversations with Mary Jane because they can understand each other. At the beginning of the novel, Huck buys into this philosophy without a question. He starts living his life the way he wants to live it and not the way society expects him to live it. As Huck meets different types of people, he starts to learn how they think. In the novel, it shows repeatedly how Pap tries to take his money and this proves that he is selfish and does not care about Huck because if he did he would not beat him and takes his money. The Duke and the King are con artist that try to fool Huck and Jim Later in the novel, Huck meets the Duke and the King. Huck then escapes Pap and finds Jim. He does not want her to think he tried to swindle the townspeople out of their money. They saw a raft on the river and they asked Huck, if anyone was on the raft. By the end of the novel, Huck knows for sure that he cannot fit into a civilized way of life and turns his back on society. Huck implied that it was his father and the two slave hunters told Huck that he probably has small pox. He also develops a way to see how people think. Huck then decides to give his money to Judge Thatcher, so that Pap cannot take his money. At first, it seems puzzling that he would let these two men take over the wigwam.
