Huck Finn paper

        Throughout the book huck Finn huck goes through a lot of changes and there are many ways. It really changes on the way that huck looks at Jim throughout the book and that’s why I choose to pick the question on slavery throughout the book and how he looks towards slavery in the book and how it is reverent to the book. I will tell you how and why it does or does not change throughout

        During the book, Huck hasn’t really experienced what life really was and what you might have gone through during times that just come out of anything. Jim is someone that you might call strange and unexpected. When Huck and Jim were together on the island and going down the river, Huck was mainly giving orders to Jim, but on sometimes he didn’t. The reason why Huck gave those because where they were is probably where he most likely grew up. As the book continues he begins to know and understand how a black man has been treated throughout life and starts to give him more respect throughout the book. It was kind of like at the end of the book “It was fifteen minutes before I could work myself up to go and humble myself to a slave; but I done it, and I wasn’t ever sorry for it afterward, neither” (Twain 92). Huck was scared to what was going to happen, but he overcame it very well.

In the beginning of the novel, Huck has a very childish. He doesn’t care what he does wrong, he doesn’t listen that well, and he gets in trouble all the time. He gets yelled at a lot for the littlest things, like not sitting up straight, “Then she told me about the bad place, and I said I wished I was the rall I wanted was a change” (Twain 2). Huck was a different person than a lot of the other kids his age. Huck thinks that everyone that doesn’t follow him in actions is.

        The 1830’s people let what they though and they believed in stories they shouldn’t have.  This shows how people would let these thing just get into their heads so easy. It also shows that people are easy by believing everything. They were all just grew up with believing what they were told by their parents.
In chapter 19 Huck says “Well, he cried and took on so that me and Jim didn’t know hardly what to do. We was so sorry and so glad and proud we’d got him with us too” (Twain 124). People in those times believed some of the weirdest things you would never have thought that they would have.
