Atticus and Tate are arguing about how Bob Ewell died. Atticus is convinced the Jem stabbed Ewell as he tried to protect Scout from attack. At the same time, Heck knows that Bob did not die because of Jem, but Boo Radley. He also knows that if Boo Radley were trialed for murder he would be discriminated against and would be a traumatic and painful experience. So, Tate tells Atticus that Bob Ewell had fallen on his knife while in a drunk stupor. Though Atticus does not agree, Scout is convinced that Tate is correct, telling Atticus that sending Boo Radley to trial would be "sort of like shootin' a mocking-bird.
Jem is impressed with Atticus and he responds by saying that Atticus is a gentleman like him. Jem is Atticus' son in To Kill A Mockingbird.
I think that Atticus realizes that Mrs. Dubose is only saying what is on her mind. Since he is older then Jem and Scout, Atticus knows that what Mrs. Dubose is saying is what many people in Maycomb also believe. She is old and not quite aware of her insulting remarks and Atticus knows that.
Adding ethos to an argument is simply making it easy for people to trust what you are saying. Just give people reasons to believe that you are credible :)
Atticus saying the same thing as Mr. Raymond shows that he is empathetic and understanding towards the perspective of others. This display of empathy could potentially change the town's view of Atticus, as they may come to see him as someone who is open-minded and willing to listen to different viewpoints.
it said that Atticus was a hardworking and focused man but it also depicted him as a boy rather than a man.
Saying the "N" word to describe black folk.
Miss Maudie responds by saying that Atticus is the same in his house as he is on his lawn, indicating that he stands by his beliefs regardless of public opinion. Atticus tells Jem that he doesn't believe in holding grudges, emphasizing forgiveness and understanding as important values.
Dill technically lied to Atticus by saying that they were playing strip poker, but not with cards
Aunt Alexandra is rather pushy, and she wants to raise Scout differently than she's currently being raised. Both Atticus and Scout are sensible people, but don't feel the change is necessary, and despite his sister having the best intentions, she doesn't quite understand that they're happy the way they are, or why that is ok.
Heck says "Didn't you know your daddy's-" (page 128) Then he is cut off by Atticus saying "Hush, Heck, let's go back to town." What Atticus is trying to avoid here is another lie about him that he is tired of people saying.
An appeal to popularity is when someone argues that something must be true or good because many people believe or do it. For example, saying "Everyone is using this new app, so it must be the best one out there" is an appeal to popularity in a persuasive argument.
I don't think this is the right question becacause the jury that made the decision was not from Maycomb. They were from Old Sarum. But I believe that Atticus was glad because the jury took al ong time to come to a decision on the final saying of the trial. He thinks that Maycomb is going to change, but is going to take sometime. Atticus thinks that people just don't understand things. He thinks that Maycomb people judge too quickly.
