Illuminator 17-21

Hello everybody. This is Jacob. I'm here to answer some questions for my role which was the illuminator. What my job was to select three literary devices to define, present the exact quote from the book and explain to the group why the author used them. Okay, here are the questions I have to answer. Question 1, describe an important symbol from this section of the book and what it stands for. The courthouse was very symbolic but quite frankly I couldn't think of what it could stand for. Question 2, describe how the author creates a setting that I can clearly picture in my mind. Well, she has very detalied descriptions of the court house as the trial is progressing. Question 3, describe a conflict from this section of the book. The conflict I will be describing for you today is the conflict between Atticus and Mayella. They had a conflict because Atticus kept calling Mayella mamm and miss. Mayella seemed to be very offended by that so she started yelling and throwing a tantrum over it. Question 4, how does the author create emotion in this section? The author creates emotion based off of the constant fueds between Mayella and Atticus. The overall emotion of this section of the story was angry and upset. Finally, were at question 5. If one of the characters was your litereature circle, describe how he or she would act based on his or her actions in the section. I think that if Mayella was in my literature circle she would act all angry and sad because thats how she act in this section of the story.
