Huck Finn discussion 3 the last

The theme I think is running through this novel is when the duke and the king are comming up with these ideas and going through town to earn money. When Jim, Huck, duke, and the king were in Arkansas, they had a play that didn't go as planned. Everybody was laughing when they wern't suppose to. The next play duke made up, it said no ladies and children allowed. Then the duke said that if that don't fetch people, he didn't know Arkansas. Another idea would be when they were at the funeral of Mr. Peter Wilks, and the duke and the king was going to try to get their land and their money. The night after people were over, Huck put the money in the coffin and shut the lid. Well, the plan backfired as things started to crumble.

In the book, Huck wants to turn Jim in, but his conscience says maybe thats not such a good idea because maybe Jim would do something to Huck when he got free. Another one would be when Jim gets arrested for his escape of slavery. Huck decides to free Jim because he likes Jim and he's been there when he needed Jim. Huck conscience kicks in and he and Tom try to get Jim out of the barn.
I think that influences are still at work today because I think that people could make the right decisions, but they don't.
The forces that are available to try to change the "deformed conscience" are consoling. When people feel they need to do something wrong, they can get help from the consolers. In Huck Finn, Huck learns from the duke and the king. Then he realizes that what they are doing is wrong, so he does what is best for him and he doesn't listen to the king and the duke much anymore. Huck thinks that either the duke or the king turned him in so maybe he changes some of his ways.

I think when the book first began and to where we are now Huck Finn and Jim have changed. Huck would be a round character because in the beginning of the book, Huck was rude, would disobey widow Douglas and would do what is best for him. Now, Huck is starting to realize how to live better and earn money. Huck also starts to change how he acts in public and his relationship with Jim.
Jim would also be a round character because in the beginning, he was sitting outside of his cabin and waiting for somebody to come out so he could turn them in or something. When Huck first saw Jim on the island, they didn't really like each other. Going down the river, Jim starts to trust Huck. Now, Jim trusts Huck because Huck is trying to get Jim out of slavery and save his life.
