概要 | The morally conflicted doubts of Mark Twain protagonist Huckleberry Finn is most famously illustrated in Huck’s angst-filled decision to tear up the letter to Miss Watson revealing the whereabouts of the runaway slave Jim. Twain described Huckleberry Finn as “a book of mine where a sound heart and a deformed conscience come into collision and conscience suffers defeat.” The argument here is that the "collision" described by Twain – is inseparable from the protagonist’s conviction of his own inferiority, which in turn results from his weak position vis a vis the established social, legal, and religious authorities of the antebellum South. |
