-Miss Emma speaking to grant
His Aunt and Miss Emma
Miss Emma's two primary concerns for Jefferson in "A Lesson Before Dying" are to help him regain his self-worth and dignity as a human being, and to ensure that he dies with pride and awareness of his own humanity despite his unjust conviction.
In "A Lesson Before Dying," a sarcastic example can be found when Grant Wiggins sarcastically remarks to Miss Emma that he is "touched" by her suggestion that he can make a difference in Jefferson's life. This highlights Grant's skepticism and frustration with the situation he is placed in.
Two characters that influence Grant in "A Lesson Before Dying" are Miss Emma and Tante Lou. Miss Emma is Jefferson's godmother and pushes Grant to visit Jefferson in prison and help him find his humanity. Tante Lou is Grant's aunt and serves as a moral anchor, guiding him to understand his role in the community and in Jefferson's life.
Yes.
In "A Lesson Before Dying," the theme of obligation and commitment is vividly illustrated through the interactions between Emma Glenn and the Pichots, as well as between Grant and Vivian. Emma's unwavering commitment to Jefferson highlights the moral responsibility of individuals to advocate for justice and dignity, even in the face of systemic oppression. Similarly, Grant's struggle with his own obligations—to Jefferson, his community, and his relationship with Vivian—illustrates the complexities of commitment in a world that often seems indifferent to personal sacrifice. These exchanges underscore the profound impact of personal relationships and social responsibilities in shaping one's sense of purpose and moral duty.
"if the horse is dead, get off it"
Grant lies to Miss Emma and Tante Lou, stating that Jefferson spent hours talking and eating with him during his visit, implying that the visit had a positive impact on Jefferson. In reality, Jefferson remained distant and unresponsive throughout most of their time together.
