After Jim is "sold " into slavery by the con artists, the King and the Duke, Huck's moral development hastens as he wrestles with society's belief that God endorses slavery . Huck has been raised to believe that Huck's plan to free Jim not only violates Man's law but also God's. We studied how Huck's internal narrative is similar to a confessional memoir as Huck concludes that he would rather ,"go to Hell" than to allow Jim to remain enslaved. We further noticed Twain's unusual use of a Gothic setting in the plot sequence wherein Huck escapes the townspeople. During our second session, we worked on revising Nina's essay on satire . I provided instruction on eliminating awkward and wordy sentences and discussed how to self-edit. We further worked on how to smoothly embed quotes into commentary. Nina then worked on revisions and edits that she will finish this evening.
