Claudia Durst Johnson traces the history of early censorship of the novel, after which Fred Erisman emphasizes the more hopeful mode of Southern Romanticism he attributes to Harper Lee. R. A. Dave, from an Anglo-Indian perspective, inflates the book’s sta- tus to tragedy, and oddly compares it to Jane Austen, while William T. Going contrasts Mockingbird to another Alabama novel, T. S. Stribling’s The Store. Colin Nicholson compares the film version of the novel to Harper Lee’s story and finds it somewhat inadequate, which would not be my own judgment. Eric J. Sundquist severely criticizes Harper Lee for over-idealizing Atticus, and thus falsifying the actual desegregation of the South. The film and novel again are contrasted by Dean Shackelford, who emphasizes Scout’s augmenting feminism, after which Patrick Chura centers on the historical relationship between the novel and the Emmett Till case. Christopher Metress traces the gradual decline of Atticus Finch in crit- ical esteem, while Gary Richards examines the subtle intimations of Truman Capote’s homosexuality in Dill, for whom Capote served as model, and in Scout Finch’s perpetual boyishness. vii HAROLD BLOOM Introduction I find that rereading To Kill a Mockingbird (wonderful title!) is, for me, a somewhat ambivalent experience. Scout Finch charms me, as she has so many millions of people, and yet she seems to me better than her book, which has dated into a period piece, while she herself remains remarkably vital and refreshing. Since Scout is her book, I find my own reaction an enig- ma, and hope to enlighten at least myself in this introduction. No one could expect Scout to rival Huck Finn (from whom she serenely derives), and yet her sensibility, intelligence, and decency strongly recall aspects of Huck. This, I think, is all to the good: a younger, female Huckleberry Finn fills a void in American fiction. The aesthetic problem is not Scout Finch, but her father, Atticus, and the entire range of major and minor characters in the story. Atticus and all the others are ideograms rather than people, while Harper Lee’s portrait of the artist as a young girl has the individuality, of con- sciousness and of speech, that allows the representation of a person to be much more than a name on a page. Harper Lee cannot sustain comparison with Eudora Welty and Flannery O’Connor, or even with Carson McCullers. It would be wrong to make such a contrast, except that to see the limits of To Kill a Mockingbird is also to perceive better the novel’s relative success in portraying Scout Finch. It is very difficult to represent any healthy consciousness in literature, whether we are being shown an eight-year-old girl or a fully mature woman. 1 2 Introduction Shakespeare, most prodigious of all writers ever, has an astonishing triumph in the Rosalind of As You Like It, a heroine who is not only a superb wit, like Falstaff and Hamlet, but who manifests an absolutely normative conscious- ness, free of all neuroses and darknesses. As an audience, we cannot achieve any perspectives upon Rosalind in which she has not preceded us. She sees all around, as it were, and has a largeness that inspired Jane Austen to emu- lation. A wholesome sensibility attracts us in life, yet rarely confronts us in literature. One cannot expect Scout Finch to grow up into Rosalind; Scout is perceptive and quick, but her mind is essentially conventional. And yet her spirit is free, in a kind of proto-feminist variation upon Huck Finn’s. The story that Scout tells is circumscribed by time and by region, and also by an America before the Fall, in our final Age of Innocence, the Fifties. Harper Lee and her book emerged from a country yet to experience the Vietnam War, and the subsequent advent of the Counterculture. The United States is a nation desperately losing faith in all authority, whether govern- mental or familial. To Kill a Mockingbird, in its societal aspects, is already a period piece, and its faith in essential human nature can seem very naive. The book’s continued popularity, still extraordinary, partly suggests that we find in it a study of the nostalgias. Yet nostalgia itself dates; the reader becomes alienated from it, when nothing restores a sense of its relevance.

  • Changing Hearts and Minds to Value Education Dear Parents, Guardians
    THE NEWARK PUBLIC SCHOOLS Central High School 246-250 18th Avenue Newark, New Jersey 07108 Phone: 973-733-6897 Fax: 973-733-8212 Christopher Cerf Kimberley Harrington (Acting) State District Superintendent Commissioner of Education Sharnee Brown Principal Dear Parents, Guardians, and Students, At Central High School, student success is our greatest priority. To that end, your child is required to read a novel during the summer. Reading builds not only literacy skills needed for the PARCC and other exams, but it also builds vocabulary, writing, speaking, listening, comprehension, interpretation, and analysis skills that will benefit them in all aspects of their goals. Reading helps develop foundations in other academic subjects as authors often reference history, mathematics, science, and other topics within the greater purpose for their literary works. Current research on summer reading shows that a several-month break in reading activities can hinder academic growth. Our efforts were focused on providing students with engaging texts that will prepare them for success in the curriculum during the upcoming school year. The intention of this summer reading program is to support continued use of the reading strategies we have learned throughout the school year while providing our students with the opportunity to pass the summer months with both enjoyment and mental exercise. The summer reading program is mandatory, with the connected assignment due for an assessment grade during Week 1 (September 5-8, 2017) of the upcoming school year. Please see the list on the next pages, which contain the novel students in each grade level are expected to read, as well as the associated assignment.

  • (For an Exceptional Debut Novel, Set in the South) Names Final Four
    FOR RELEASE NOVEMBER 20 FIRST ANNUAL CROOK’S CORNER BOOK PRIZE (FOR AN EXCEPTIONAL DEBUT NOVEL, SET IN THE SOUTH) NAMES FINAL FOUR The linkages between good writing and good food and drink are clear and persistent. I can’t imagine a better means of celebrating their entwining than this innovative award. — John T. Edge CHAPEL HILL, NC – The Crook’s Corner Book Prize announced four finalists for the first annual Crook’s Corner Book Prize, to be awarded for an exceptional debut novel set in the American South. The winner will be announced January 6th. The four finalists are LEAVING TUSCALOOSA, by Walter Bennett (Fuze Publishing); CODE OF THE FOREST, by Jon Buchan (Joggling Board Press); A LAND MORE KIND THAN HOME, by Wiley Cash (William Morrow); and THE ENCHANTED LIFE OF ADAM HOPE, by Rhonda Riley (Ecco). “It was exciting to find so many great books—several of them from independent publishers (even micro-publishers)—emerging from our reading,” said Anna Hayes, founder and president of the Crook’s Corner Book Prize Foundation. “This grassroots effort to discover and champion books in general, Southern Literature in particular, is amazing and refreshing,” said Jamie Fiocco, owner of Flyleaf Books and president of the Southern Independent Booksellers Alliance. “The Crook’s Corner Book Prize is a great example of what independent booksellers have been doing for years: finding top- quality reading experiences, regardless of the book’s origin—small or large publisher. Readers trust the rich literary history of the South to deliver a sense of place and great characters; now this Prize lets readers learn about the cream of the crop of new storytellers.” Intended to encourage emerging writers in a publishing environment that seems to change daily, the Prize is equally open to self-published authors and traditionally published authors.

  • Literature Review Form to Kill a Mockingbird
    Southwest Licking School District Literature Selection Review Teacher: Paula Ball School: Watkins Memorial High School Book Title: To Kill a Mockingbird Genre: Fiction Author: Harper Lee Publisher: Warner Brothers Book Summary and summary citation: Set in the small Southern town of Maycomb, Alabama, during the Depression, To Kill a Mockingbird follows three years in the life of 8-year-old Scout Finch, her brother, Jem, and their father, Atticus--three years punctuated by the arrest and eventual trial of a young black man accused of raping a white woman. Though her story explores big themes, Harper Lee chooses to tell it through the eyes of a child. The result is a tough and tender novel of race, class, justice, and the pain of growing up. Instructional Rationale/Objectives: Read increasingly challenging texts, comparing these texts to previously read texts Identify, analyze, and evaluate persuasive techniques used in literature Review #1 Amazon.com Review Like the slow-moving occupants of her fictional town, Lee takes her time getting to the heart of Her tale; we first meet the Finches the summer before Scout's first year at school. She, her brother, and Dill Harris, a boy who spends the summers with his aunt in Maycomb, while away the hours reenacting scenes from Dracula and plotting ways to get a peek at the town bogeyman, Boo Radley. At first the circumstances surrounding the alleged rape of Mayella Ewell, the daughter of a drunk and violent white farmer, barely penetrate the children's consciousness. Then Atticus is called on to defend the accused, Tom Robinson, and soon Scout and Jem find themselves caught up in events beyond their understanding.

  • To Kill a Mockingbird Background Information Harper Lee Was An
    To Kill a Mockingbird Background Information Harper Lee was an American writer, famous for her race relations novel TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 1961. The book became an international bestseller and was adapted into screen in 1962. Lee was 34 when the work was published, and it has remained her only novel. "Mockingbirds don't do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don't eat up people's gardens, don't nest in corncribs, they don't do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That's why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird." Harper Lee was born in Monroeville, Alabama. Her father was a former newspaper editor and proprietor, who had served as a state senator and practiced as a lawyer in Monroeville. Lee studied law at the University of Alabama from 1945 to 1949, and spent a year as an exchange student in Oxford University, Wellington Square. Six months before finishing her studies, she went to New York to pursue a literary career. During the 1950s, she worked as an airline reservation clerk with Eastern Air Lines and British Overseas Airways. In 1959 Lee accompanied Truman Capote to Holcombe, Kansas, as a research assistant for Capote's classic 'non-fiction' novel In Cold Blood (1966). To Kill a Mockingbird was Lee's first novel. The book is set in Maycomb, Alabama, in the 1930s. Atticus Finch, a lawyer and a father, defends a black man, Tom Robinson, who is accused of raping a poor white girl, Mayella Ewell.

But when he drank, he was dishonest and destructive. Her mother was a free spirit who abhorred the idea of domesticity and didn’t want the responsibility of raising a family. Angela’s Ashes Frank McCourt So begins the luminous memoir of Frank McCourt, born in Depression-era Brooklyn to recent Irish immigrants and raised in the slums of Limerick, Ireland. Frank’s mother, Angela, has no money to feed the children since Frank’s father, Malachy, rarely works, and when he does he drinks his wages. Yet Malachy — exasperating, irresponsible, and beguiling — does nurture in Frank an appetite for the one thing he can provide: a story. Frank lives for his father’s tales of Cuchulain, who saved Ireland, and of the Angel on the Seventh Step, who brings his mother babies. Buried Onions Gary Soto For Eddie there isn’t much to do in his rundown neighborhood but eat, sleep, watch out for drive-bys, and just try to get through each day.

In this course, as we analyze great literary characters, we will always ask how much are we like and how much are we not? It will be a journey of self-discovery through the pages of literature. Expectations and Goals: • Students will develop a better concept of self by comparing themselves to great literary characters. • Students will develop practical analyzing skills by reading great literature. • Through group discussion, students will expand their viewpoint and help others to do the same. Teaching Style: I am a massive proponent of self-discovery as you prepare for class and discover through discussion in class. I ask lots of questions and enjoy hearing your thoughts, opinions, and challenges. Since this course is about finding yourself, I will often ask if you identify with a character and, more importantly, why or why not. Since class time is 90 minutes, I plan to leave the last 30 minutes to discuss other characters in these books or another book of your choosing. Required Course Materials: In most cases, you have read the books. However, I am asking you to exam the character and compare yourself to them. • Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird • Hergé, Tintin in the Tibet • Alice Walker, The Color Purple • Roald Dahl, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory • J.D.
