They attempted to portray the lives, appearances, problems, customs, and mores of the middle and lower classes, of the unexceptional, the ordinary, the humble, and the unadorned. they conscientiously set themselves to reproducing all the hitherto-ignored aspects of contemporary life and society.

Realism revolted against the exotic subject matter and the exaggerated emotionalism and drama of the Romantic movement. The French proponents of realism were agreed in their rejection of the artificiality of both the Classicism and Romanticism. The realists wanted to break away from the formal artistic styles and subjects of the past. So they created objective, unemotional works that were unadorned with imaginative flourishes. The movement began as early as the 1830's but reached prominence and held sway from the end of the Civil War to around the end of the nineteenth century.

The book ends in the fictional town of Pikesville, which is probably located in southeastern Arkansas, near where that state borders Mississippi and Louisiana. Although Huck and Jim spend time in towns along the river during their journey, a large portion of the novel takes place in natural settings.
Tone - moralistic, most clearly on the theme of slavery. Over the course of the novel, Huck asks questions and confronts moral dilemmas that enable him to see the basic injustice of slavery, if only as it pertains to Jim.
Point of View - Huck can be an unreliable narrator, and his naive misreading of situations creates dramatic irony, which contrasts Huck’s essentially good nature to the cynicism and hypocrisy of adults.
Symbols - the Mississippi River is the ultimate symbol of freedom.  The river carries them toward freedom: for Jim, toward the free states; for Huck, away from his abusive father and the restrictive “sivilizing” of St. Petersburg.
Genre - The genre takes its name from the Spanish word picaro, meaning rogue, and originated in Spain in the sixteenth century.]]> 2019-01-31 16:31:35 UTC https://padlet.com/hgbui1001_2/8f6hns1bg1a9/wish/326348115
