To Kill A Mockingbird / Setting & The Courtroom
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. The significance of the Maycomb setting in Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird and how it affects the courtroom scene demonstrates the way in which a black man's life can be maligned with blatant lies and misinterpretations. Atticus Finch's appointment to defend Negro Tom Robinson is something the town has not witnessed before -- a town in which blacks and whites cohabit together but do not meld their lives beyond the cursory greeting at the marketplace. By Finch taking on Robinson's alleged rape case, it sets a new precedence for the narrow-mindedness of the townspeople and the injustice routinely inflicted upon the Negro community. No additional sources cited.
