Joe Dillema



  1.     .       Does Jim deflate the novel by being a character that's just there rather than a character with ownership? (end of the book)

  2.       Could Twain have created a better character than Huck?

  3.       Does Jim reassume his previous slave role of submission and silence?

  4.       Is Jim a full rounded character?

  5.       If you were Jim, would you have ran off to be free or would you have tended Tom and take him back to the doctor?

  1. Not too sure if we are actually suppose to comment on these, but I shall. So, to answer the 2nd question : I think Jim DOES have a voice. It may not be a "loud" voice, but Jim is quite sassy at times though out the story. For example, Jim shows his intelligence and strong willed self with the whole Solomon story episode. With Jim pounding Huck with questions, Huck is shocked, and I believe as a cover up Huck just brushes it off by gives Jim the title of slave.
