Huck Finn is a hot item
today! It’s being dropped from all humanistic reading lists. Public
schools won’t touch it with a ten foot pole. Huck isn’t 'politically
correct'!The author, of course, is
relating another, earlier mindset that embarrasses the duty sociologists
and psychologists. Christians should approach Huck with anticipation and
good humor.
The author presents
typical unbelieving attitudes about the Church and about society. God’s
people can and must learn the lessons that are posed here. At the same
time they will be mightily "cultured" and entertained.
This is an excellent study of a great
classic! Makes a good home-school course, elective, or can be taken
during summer break. Everything you need is included online.
