1.) Pap is telling Huck he cannot go to school anymore and if he, Pap, sees Huck around school, He'll beat him. This is a situational Irony because you would expect a dad to be happy that his son is going to school and getting and education that he himself never got, but Pap dpesn't like it one bit.
2.) Society believes the kin should not be seperated, even if the father was not suitable. This is one of the flaws of society during this time period.
3.) Huck prefers to stay at the Shanty because he likes to live wild and not dress nice. He likes to have more freedom and living in the shanty, in away he does, because he doesn't have to go to school or have any type of lessons, and for the most part he looks after himself. He also has to stay because his Pa locks him in, like something he owns, which goes along woth the theme of dehuminization.
4.) Mark Twain is saying that just because a person is white, doesn't mean they are in anyway better than a black person.
~Pa and everyone else believe they are better then that black man because they are white, even thought they have done nothing in there life to better themselves like the black man in the story had done.
5.) The escape- Freedom, finding Jim- Coming of age, and the conflict between the individual and society.
6.) Tom thinks in a romantic way and wants adventure, and while Huck like adventure as well, at that time, all he wanted to do was escape. So if Tom had been there, he might have over done the scene making it unconvincing.
7.) This bread was sent out to find a dead body because it was a superstition people believed in. The funny thing is, is that the bread actually found Huck. Once the bread found Huck he decided that praying must work for some people becasue the widow probably prayed for the bread to find Huck, and it did.
8.)At first, Jim is frightened of Huck because he thinks that Huck is a ghost, but once Huck explains what happened to him, Jim is okay and glad to see him.
9.) It is a physical and spiritual rebrith: Spiritual because Huck is now free and starting a new life on the river; Physical rebirth for to Jim: Jim thought Huck was dead, and now he is back.
10.) Jim is a person, but to Huck, he is property. It shows that Huck views Jim as someone's property still. which is also Huck resulting conflict in his mind, to Huck, Jim is property and running away is like stealing, but he promised Jim he would not tell.
11.) Much of what Jim says will happen, does come true. When he predicted bad luck will happen, the rattlesnake bite him. When he said it would rain, it did. This characteristic of Jim also goes along witht eh motif of superstition.
12.) After Huck kills a rattlesnake, he hides it in Jim's bed to scare him. Yes I think it is typical of Huck's character, he is a boy, got bored and didn't think anything bad would come of it. In the end, he learned that when you kill a snake, its matecomes and wraps around its dead mate.
13.) He is very witty and can make up a story on the spot, he also doesn't know how to act like a girl. Cares about the safety of Jim.
14.)The common human trait that emerges it our problem with over exagaration about things, Judith said Huck and Tom found 20 thousand dollars but really it was only 12 thousand dollars.
15.) Jim's reward is $300 while Pa's is only $200, They believe Jim was the one who killed Huck only because he happened to leave the night of the murder. He had no reason and they really only believed it was Jim instead of Pa because he was a runaway black slave. Pa on the other hand had a reason to kill Huck and that ishe would be able to get the money quicker.
