Huck refers to Huck Finn, the main character in Mark Twain's novel "Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," who is a young boy running away from society and his abusive father. The hunters, on the other hand, are characters in the novel who embody societal norms and rules, often pursuing Huck to bring him back into civilization and enforce conformity. This dynamic sets up a contrast between individual freedom and societal expectations throughout the story.
