1. Pap’s Cabin
People: Pap and Huck
Episode; Pap kidnaps Huck and takes him three miles up the Mississippi river into the state of Illinois. Pap takes him
to a cabin situated in the woods and locks him inside. Though Huck tries to escape, he is unsuccessful. After few
days he starts enjoying his stay in the cabin. He says that he likes not having Widow Douglas around him because
now he has the freedom to do whatever he wants. However, he says that his own father, “”got too handy with his
hick’ry, and I couldn’t stand it. I was all over welts. He got to going away so much, too, and locking me in. Once he
locked me in and was gone three days. It was dreadful lonesome.” (24) Huck says that his own father tries to kill
him. Twain says that how civilized people could act silly sometimes and can even lose their temper.
He is trying to make fun of the alcoholics because it is funny how people drink and waste their money on it the first
place and then they take out their anger and frustration on their family and children
Quote; Jackson’s island
People: Huck and Jim
After spending three days on Jackson’s Island, Huck starts to feel lonely. So in order to pass time he goes on to
explore the place, where he later meets Jim. Now Jim, because of his superstitions, assumes that Huck he is a ghost.
Huck convinces Jim that he’s not actually dead. After dinner Huck and Jim sit down to talk and suddenly some birds
fly by, to which Jim responds by saying “it was a sign it was going to rain” (45).In addition Jim reckons that it is
wrong to catch or kill birds because it is sign of death. This shows how Jim still believes in irrational things.
Twain is making fun of the people who still believe in superstitions.
