.... intends), or as a complex satire on 18th century morals and thought (as Swift intends) In each land Gulliver visits, there is a different ironic comparison to English/European politics and philosophy.

.... that all people are created equal, at least under the law. Bob Ewell accused Tom of beating and raping his daughter and only the black families and a handful of whites (including Atticus) seem to believe in his innocence. Therefore his chance of a fair trial was slim. The jury's racism cuts short an innocence man's life. Unfortunately, the small southern town's social values raised white children to think of blacks as the 'second-class' race. Case closed, Tom must be guilty, no way would a black man's words go over a white mans. The only white man strong enough to stand up for Tom was Atticus, Scout's father.

.... is showing how friendship can alter peoples personalities. During this story I think that two personalities stick out above all, and that would be Gene and Finny’s personalities. Gene’s personality reflects on him that he is a very intellectual and shy person. While Finny’s personality enables him to be more outgoing and athletic. Because their personalities differ so much it would allow them to be the best of friends or the worst of enemies. In this paper I intend to prove that Gene’s personality was gradually changed during the story by Phineas’ more outgoing personality. While reading this story I was under the impression that Gene was a ve .....
