这世界怎样的人才是好人，什么时候才能让人活得不用那么纠结正义不正义，正确还是错误，谁可以给个答案？
电影的一开始，觉得真的很无聊，美国30年代的故事背景不能引起我的一点点印象，五六十年代的拍摄水平也没现在好莱坞商业大片那样绚丽丰富，现在也在奇怪自己当初是受了什么鼓励才把这部无聊透顶的由小说改编的电影坚持看完了（哎）
以一个叫斯科特的刚上小学的女生为故事的主线叙述者，有一个哥哥杰姆，暑假认识的小伙伴迪尔，爸爸阿迪克斯是一个村里比较respectable的律师，帮很多村里贫穷的农民打赢不少关于土地继承的官司。他们有个叫布的邻居，听说他小时被自己的爸爸绑在家因为他们认为他精神有问题，但他们又觉得自己家族的人不能进精神病院，所以，她们附近的这座小房子成了我们小时口中常说的鬼屋，但是小孩子就是小孩子，虽然很害怕很害怕但是就是比较欠抽（原谅我用这个词，因为我自己就是这样的一个小孩子）就是禁不住好奇心，总想方设法接近它，彼此打赌敢不敢到房子旁边以碰手为准，或是夜深时避过大人眼线溜出家偷偷从窗往鬼屋里看，看的时候一个黑影渐渐逼近、渐渐逼近···然而又退走了（这是一个伏笔）小孩们吓破了胆，毕竟我自己当场也叫出声了（囧死了，当时可是还有师兄师姐的···）我在内心里骂了他们不下三千次，好端端在家待着就好了冒什么险啊（不得不说虽然影片比较老，但那摄影角度和水准还是有的，环境氛围渲染得那叫一个恐怖和到位啊）。
说回他们的爸爸阿迪克斯吧，他最近在为一个叫汤姆鲁滨逊的黑人辩护，控诉黑人的是他强奸并殴打了一名白人女性（其实真相是白女勾引强壮有力的黑人未果被其父撞见，其父尤厄尔醉酒，殴打的他的女儿，而且坚定认为是黑人强奸了他的女儿，女儿被打怕了，顺从了其父的意思一口指证是汤姆强奸并殴打的她），法院没开庭前，尤厄尔带了一班农民准备到监狱私自解决了汤姆（以前的监狱不像现在防备这么好，很简陋的，连阿迪克斯作为律师知道他们的计划后也赶到监狱前为汤姆守夜至于以前的美国监狱怎么样我没有查究，这或许是为了剧情需要，可美国允许自配枪这一点大家都是知道的），他们围着斯斯文文的阿迪克斯，咄咄逼人让他走开，这时三个孩子出现了（分别是斯科特，杰姆和迪尔），双方坚持不下，斯科特这时看到农民中有一位之前曾为感谢她父亲送来核桃的叫沃尔特的农民，跟他打招呼，但是他用帽檐挡住视线，低着头，没有搭理她（他曾经有求于阿迪克斯，而现在他又和别人一起针对阿迪克斯，或许他也觉得没有颜面面对恩人阿迪克斯和这么善良单纯的女孩斯科特吧，后来也是他出面说这次先放过汤姆一次这事才不了了之）。这里面看出了一个众所周知的问题，就是美国的种族歧视，白人不需要证据，只要是有关黑人的案件一律是黑人的错，而且不需要经过法律就可以枪毙黑人的生命对生命这个话题，我很少矫情，这次也不准备矫情，只是看他们很不爽（那时候我也没确认汤姆是不是真的犯了罪），有罪的无罪的，他们这样做像什么样子要规则要法律何用！我以为官司会赢（因为有理有据汤姆被冤枉了），剧情需要，
还是输了，输了就输了我也猜到了，出乎我意料的是，汤姆竟然在去监狱的路上逃跑，未遂，不小心被打死了恩，我也是这时才觉得这部片从意义上有点意思，之前的那些铺垫豁然开朗，他，不就是名字中的那个mocking bird吗，所谓mocking bird，即知更鸟，一种对人类无害又无利的鸟，只会在枝头自己鸣叫歌唱，然而它有一天被猎人一枪打下树，平凡的不能再平凡的黑人汤姆，过着自己的生活，有一天遇上了猎人，他无法自救，因为他是黑人，没有更多的像阿迪克斯那样的人相信他，在一个不被认可的环境生活，他所祈求的不过的是自力更生自食其力，然而还是有无妄之灾，要说他错在哪，错在他不该选择那个环境吧
情景再换，因为这个官司，尤厄尔对阿迪克斯恨透了（我不爽啊，你凭什么恨阿迪克斯啊，不过剧情和现实往往就是如此），有一天夜里，他跟踪斯科特和杰姆从万圣节晚会回家（好像万圣节也快到了）路上打晕了杰姆，正准备对斯科特下手时被一双手拦下并被打晕了，两小孩因此得救回到房间阿迪克斯和斯科特才发现抱回受伤杰姆的是那个在整部剧中第一次露面的布（就是那个说是crazy的邻居），郡长到场发现尤厄尔已经被（布）用刀杀死了，阿迪克斯很犹豫，布是为了就自己的孩子才会杀死尤厄尔，而他又是一个对对法律和规则很尊重的人（纵观全剧），郡长发话了尤厄尔不小心坐在了自己的刀上，阿迪克斯，你不用说话了，我们已经救不回一个知更鸟（指汤姆），难道现在还要杀死另一个知更鸟吗（前文有铺垫提到，阿迪克斯小时候收到他父亲的猎枪时曾被告诉我宁愿你的枪口对着蓝嘴鸟，也不要杀死任何一只知更鸟）结局嘛，是斯科特拉着一直没说过话的布的手，大手牵小手，送布回他的那间有颗温暖的跳动的心的鬼屋······
衣冠楚楚的人也会有肮脏不堪的内心，外表恐怖的人也是有血有肉的，我们评论一个人，从他的外表吗，从他的过去吗，从他的现在吗？你可以给一个人下结论，也给不了一个人下结论。阿迪克斯在我小时候告诉我要学会从别人的角度为别人着想，对于布，只要站在他家门口就好了。
现在，我们回到开始提出的那些问题，什么是好人？怎么才算活得正确？种族就确定一切吗？阶级就确定一切吗？性别就确定一切吗？过去就代表未来吗？别这么武断了。Innocence，虽然这是老师给知更鸟的答案，我还是不满足的，因为清楚知道，这类问题，答案不会嫌多不是每个问题都有答案，我只能说，给我的感觉嘛，这个答案说得过去。
之前我并没有听过Harper Lee, 更没有看过她的这部作品，我不是一个喜欢思考人生的人，也没有闲情去思考，有时间不如看看小说看看动漫，不是一个矫情的人，但也会哭会难过，不为该哭的哭，该哭的都有人为它而哭，多我一个不多，跟着感觉走就好了，这次看这种电影，以前不是没看过，我写读后感也不是什么特别想写（有点心酸自己都过了那个），今晚打棍回来累坏了，想玩电脑却有点空虚，想写情诗练练手感，又想不到写给谁，打了个电话陪家人聊会天，想起昨晚的电影，就这样写了，写就写了，希望还能有点逻辑，没有也
不管了，权当打单机游戏了

正义的艰难前行
——《杀死一只知更鸟》观后感
“杀死知更鸟是一种罪过，因为它不做任何（危害人类的）事，只是为我们唱歌”。 影片《杀死一只知更鸟》改编自哈珀·李同名小说，以女孩斯考特和哥哥詹姆的角度讲述了其作为律师的父亲受法院委托为一名黑人辩护的故事。故事发生在20世纪30年代的南阿拉巴马州，当时美国种族歧视严重，黑人罗宾逊被白人尤厄尔控告强暴了他的女儿梅埃拉，然而在法庭上事实很容易被还原：白人妇女引诱罗宾逊不成，认为这件事很羞耻，便和她父亲一起诬告罗宾逊希望除掉他。影片高潮部分的审判结果出乎我的意料，罗宾逊依然被判有罪，并且在送回监狱的过程中逃跑意外身亡。最后结局恶人尤厄尔还是得到了报应，另外一只“知更鸟”布尔被保护住。
其中律师芬奇先生的人格魅力深深感染了我，很多细节都体现出他是一位体贴善良、极具正义感的完美的人。不想让送核桃充当打赢土地继承官司的报酬的农民坎宁安难堪、小心翼翼的款待坎宁安的儿子、即使当时歧视黑人的白人们不满而且出面阻挠依然接受委托为可怜的黑人辩护„„他就是我们一直以来期待的律师形象。在开庭审判前一天，他为了保护罗宾逊，在明知有危险的情况下守在监狱门外。在偷看的孩子们的眼中，昏黄的灯光下，静静看书的父亲是那么伟大勇敢，以至于他们在看到危险后立马出来和父亲站在一起。在当时种族歧视严重的社会氛围中，芬奇先生就像一盏灯给黑人甚至所有有良知的白人带来正义的光。
让我感触最深的是法庭审判的部分，在原告和被告都陈述完毕后，我相信在场所有人根据他们的表现和芬奇先生提出的问题都明白了真相，而且芬奇先生在陈述时对陪审团一再重读“gentlemen”来称呼他们，并希望他们摒弃冲动来评判证词，法庭上人人平等。然而两个小时后，由12个白人组成的陪审团却给出了被告罪名成立的判决，连法官也只能接受判决无奈离场。很多人明白罗宾逊无罪，他们也敬重芬奇先生，可是这并不能改变审判结果。这与芬奇先生在法庭上说过的“坚信法院与陪审团制度的正义性不符合现状”多么吻合，在当时社会意识形态下，即使宣称法庭上人人平等、即使没有证据表明是黑人犯罪，陪审团还是带有偏见地判处被告有罪。它没有以我们喜欢的喜剧收尾，而是让“知更鸟”罗宾逊的死这一悲剧来震撼我们，正义有时候很难得到伸张，但“罪恶”一词却几乎时刻出现在人物的
台词里，也表明罪恶就在我们身边。
所以我们谈论法律，不能简单地看一些法律条文。我相信当时美国法典是公正的，里面没有规定白人的证词都是无可置疑的而所有黑人都不诚实，它宣称人人生而平等。但是就如社会法学派的观点一样，我们需要关注法律的实施，关注社会与法律的关系。在当时的社会背景下，陪审团制度无疑对受到歧视的黑人非常不利，不管他们做了什么，他们在许多白人眼里就是有罪的，这种偏见很难改变。因此芬奇先生是勇敢正义的，作为一名白人律师，他不顾社会舆论站出来维护正义，他希望寻求公正，他希望引导社会不带偏见地执法。
我们不能说悲剧是法律本身造成的，只是受限于当时带有偏见的社会氛围，所以法律真正的进步不是自己大跨步前进，而是与社会一同前行。正如瞿同祖所说：法律是社会产物，是社会制度之一，是社会规范之一。法律在某个社会大背景下能否得到有效的实施不只在于它本身，还依赖于宗教、种族、风俗等各种社会因素。然而我们可以乐观的认为好的法律能引导社会的前进。
影片的最后，布尔为了保护詹姆兄妹俩杀死了尤厄尔，而曾经为尤厄尔作证的郡长这次却认为是尤厄尔咎由自取，决定隐瞒实情保护布尔。斯考特向父亲说：“（坦白真相）像杀死一只知更鸟，不是吗？”尤厄尔的死是正义无法得到伸张时的一种安慰，虽然他胜诉，但在法庭上没有找到的正义最终还是有了一丝希望，他得到了惩戒。回到这篇观后感的标题，正义在艰难地前行，这一次人们意识到正义缺席却无能为力，或许下一次就不仅仅是意识到，而是敢于行动，不是吗？再艰难，正义的脚步也不会停滞不前。
读《杀死一只知更鸟》有感
读《杀死一只知更鸟》有感
在读闾丘露薇《我所理解的世界》这本书时，读到这篇《不要去杀死那只知更鸟》，看到文中这段话：'在我能和别人过得去之前，我首先要和自己过得去。有一种东西不能遵循从众原则，那就是人的良心'.之前小陈就给我提到这本书，她看过英文原版书和电影，是美国中学必读之书，这部电影也是很早就有人推荐过。当看到这段话，我立马在网上下单买了这本书。
买回来迫不及待进入阅读，前面内容有些枯燥，看了很大一部分都没进入主题，便有些不耐烦，问小陈到底说得啥意思，看了半天还没进入主题，小陈说知更鸟是一种不危害人类的鸟，暗指杀死了一个并未妨碍白人的黑人。
虽然看了一大半还是没有进入我认为的主题，但越来越被吸引，>故事的背景是大萧条时期的美国，地点是美国南部的一个小镇，主角是一个七岁女孩和大她四岁的哥哥和另外一个和她同龄的男孩，故事最吸引人的是这个女孩的父亲，他是一位律师，一位为黑人辩护的律师，这位父亲以身作则、言传身教，并渗透在每一个细节中，让孩子知道什么是担当、正义、善良、勇敢、谦虚、教养、平等、尊重，这是一部特别适合父亲带着孩子阅读的一本书，我也抓住机会给小小陈读了一部分。
下面小陈来说说自己的观点。虽然这本书看似乏味，没有起伏跌宕的情节，所讲的主题还是侧重于黑人与白人之间的关系。横纵美国历史，黑人平等运动就没有停止过，很多白人就像书中的父亲，用自己的力量帮助和推动了黑人运动。但在小陈自身的认知中，也有部分白人有着一种谜一样的优越感，小陈并不知道这种优越感是从哪里来的，但这种优越感应该在一定程度上导致了对黑人（甚至对黄种人）的歧视。所以，在此小陈要纠正国人的一个观点，基本上每个亲戚朋友在小陈回国后都会问一个问题：你们那边有很多黑人吗？那些黑鬼是不是很恐怖很危险啊？他们是不是特别黑长得不好看啊？首先，叫黑人黑鬼是非常不礼貌的，若黑人是黑鬼，那中国人岂不是黄鬼？其次，大多数黑人是很有礼貌的并且非常友好的，小陈的很多黑人同学长得非常帅气或漂亮。平心而论，我们是没有资格看不起黑人的，大家都是平等的。当然，因为教育和出生的原因，部分黑人的确是危险的，小陈对美国downtown的黑人聚集地都是避而远之的。但是中国人对黑人的歧视是非常没必要的，每个种族有各自的优势，实在没必要贬另一方。
下面截取了《杀死一只知更鸟》中比较经典的段落，有兴趣的可以去看看这本书或者改编的电影：
'知更鸟唱歌给我们听，什么坏事也不做。它们不吃人们园子里的花果蔬菜，不在玉米仓里做窝，它们只是衷心地为我们唱歌。' '你射多少蓝鸟都没关系，但要记住，杀死一只知更鸟，就是一桩罪恶。‘’
‘’我想让你见识一下什么事真正的勇敢，而不要错误地认为一个人手握把枪支就是勇敢。勇敢是：当你还未开始就已经知道自己会输，可你依然要去做，而且无论如何都要把它坚持到底。你很少能赢，但有时也会。‘’
'我不是一个理想主义者，会绝对相信我们法庭和陪审制度的完善与公正——那对我来说不是理想，而是活生生的工作现实。先生们，法庭不会比坐在我面前的陪审团的任何一位成员更完美。法庭只能和它的陪审团一样健全，而陪审团只能和它的每一位成员一样健全。我对你们这些先生充满信心，我相信你们会公正、理性地重新审查所得到的证据，做出一个裁决，放这位被告人回家。以上帝的名义，尽你们的神圣职责吧。'
'如果别人认为那是个下贱的说法并用来称呼你，对你来说永远构不成侮辱。他只能显示那个人有多可怜',父亲让他们做的是：昂起头，走过去，作一位绅士。'
'在这个国家时，有一种方式让一切人生来平等---有一种人类社会机会可以让乞丐平等于洛克菲勒，让蠢人平等于爱因斯坦，让无知的人平等于任何大学的校长。这种机构，就是法庭。我们的法庭有缺陷，但在这个国家中，我们的法庭是最伟大的平等主义者。在我们的法庭中，一切人都是生来平等的。'
'除非你穿上一个人的鞋子，像他一样走来走去，否则你永远无法真正了解一个人。'
'在我能和别人过得去之前，我首先要和自己过得去。有一种东西不能遵循从众原则，那就是人的良心'
第一篇 之所以取名观后感是觉得自己还没有足够的专业知识水平来写影评。为此，只能根据老师所介绍的背景以及个人对剧情的理解来写一份非专业水平的观后感。
这部电影给我最深的印象不是案情的精彩，亦不是派克的专业辩护，而是斯各特和杰姆的快乐、童真的少年愉快时光，在剧中可以看到只有父亲的斯各特和杰姆，没有缺乏爱，相反却是满满的父爱和对母亲的憧憬与怀念。这两个小孩的童年可以说快乐、好奇、幸福齐聚一身。或许很多现在的小孩都会非常羡慕他们在自己的家里就可以玩的很开心，轮胎、爬树、荡秋千等等。这些在现在这个钢筋水泥的城市，只能在游乐场才能看到它们的缩影。这让我想起自己的童年。小时候的自己，不用干农活的时候几乎天天都跟着一大帮年龄比自己大的孩子一起玩，捉迷藏、玩过人游戏、跳绳、去山上摘果子、冬天在田里烤番薯等等，那个时候自己真的是没有压力，父母也不会给太多的约束。从而悄悄地渡过了快乐的童年。而反观现在的小孩，在富裕的物质条件下，可惜可以玩的时间和玩意似乎和家庭水平成了反比，现在的家长都希望自己的子女可以高人一筹，为此巨大的压力落在了瘦弱的肩膀上，玩耍的时间已经被参加兴趣班所代替。或许谁也没有权利去评定这种社会现实的对与错，科技的发展必然会带来变革。它是一种进步。人，从来都是在现实中抓住过去不放，从而有了感慨，感叹现实的不满，抒发对过去的怀念。人，就是一种充满矛盾的灵长类动物，在矛盾中挣扎，在现实中摸索着自己的道路。不过我想这也不为过，正好可以弥补内心的空虚，在忙碌中回忆过去。也许这可以作为一种情感治疗，从而让自己不断进步。
其次，应该是派克的父亲形象和英雄形象给人深刻印象。身为单亲爸爸，他对于子女的教育让人油然产生一种敬佩。特别是在他的子女在生活中见证了社会上非常现实但又很令人费解的情形下，他用他博深的知识抚平了孩子内心对社会丑陋现象的恐惧，给予了孩子坚强、有原则的强大心灵空间，用精准的枪法给孩子一伟岸之感，他对斯各特和杰姆的爱不像现在社会父母对孩子的爱那样地 粗
陋短浅，利益颇多。那种纯洁的爱让人实在为之渴望和向往。而作为一名黑人的辩护律师，在当时的情势下，作为有名望的白人律师，肯放下黑人与白人之间不可逾越的鸿沟，秉着敬业的职业的职业道德，不顾现实的阻碍，受害者父亲尤厄尔的侮辱，全力为当事人辩护，这不仅给当今社会上的律师界立下了一个好榜样，而且也给现实中的人们以精神教育。虽然最后陪审团判处黑人有罪，但其高尚的职业形象已威严屹力于我们心中。派克的这两种形象给予大人们的影响不言而喻，但对于他的小孩的影响，我想莫过于是派克在遭受受害者父亲带人想干掉黑人是他女儿斯各特所说的那一番看似朴实却是沁人肺腑的话的直接体现。耳濡目染的影响实在令人惊呼！
最后来说说影片中的知更鸟。知更鸟作为和谐的象征，在那个时代背景中发挥了重要的作用，影片开始之时就已把知更鸟的象征意义和重要意义提及了，但在影片过程中似乎没有任何的一些情节，反而是通过两个人物黑人汤姆和布的形象来阐释说明知更鸟。为什么说黑人是知更鸟呢？我们从他的辩护陈述中可以的知，不为报酬的帮忙、左手臂的残废、他的诚实、乐于助人的形象这可谓是坚强的知更鸟，但是法庭的宣判让这只坚强的知更鸟错失了方向，选择了逃逸。最后死在了枪火之下。而最后的元凶之死更让人惋惜黑人，惋惜这只被错杀的知更鸟。另外一只知更鸟莫过于布，从斯各特和杰姆的童年开始他就保持着神秘的面纱，从而令斯各特和杰姆对他的好奇是日以加深。但布没有想村里传言中的那样在斯各特他们去探看他的真面目是给予他们伤害。反而是保护他们。折叠好的裤子，不同时日收集到的小玩意，这些都是体现了布的满怀仁爱之心。那为什么说布是另外一只知更鸟呢？最有力的说明在于斯各特和杰姆遇难时的挺身而出。但由于尤厄尔的死亡，给布带来了困难，还好村长英明之计说尤厄尔死在自己的菜刀之下才得以让这只善良的知更鸟。从布的表情，厚而暖的手掌真的可以让人感觉到温暖。这只
知更鸟会陪伴斯各特和杰姆快乐的成长。两只知更鸟，被杀死了一只，这又恰恰接应了影片题目。实在是佩服导演的匠心独运。
《杀死一只知更鸟》，是一部集孩子教育、社会教育、道德教育的好影片！【杀死一只知更鸟读后感】
第二篇
情节精彩紧张之余发人深思
故事前半部主要是围绕吉姆兄妹俩及其伙伴对神秘邻居的探秘
故事的背景是在一个平静的小镇上
起初,人们对这神秘人的种种恐怖猜测与传闻
再加上他那阴森荒凉的小屋和杂草丛生的花园
制造了一个很好的悬念
而此后
缓慢移动的黑影
悉悉的脚步声
随风摇晃的秋千
摇曳的树影
深夜空荡街道
总是藏着奇怪物品的树洞
总总如上
都很好的塑造了诡异、恐怖、神秘的气氛【杀死一只知更鸟读后感】
故事的精华在后半部
一个黑人被指控强奸一名白人小姐
明明疑点甚多、证据不足
却因为镇上人们对黑人的偏见
认定黑人山姆.罗宾逊有罪
主人公阿卡斯是一名律师
他正为这一案件的被告人进行辩护
而他也因为"袒护"黑人而遭受了种种非议
影片中
长达近四十分钟的法庭辩护十分精彩
许多台词非常经典
这里不做一一复述
法庭上每个演员都表现的很好
正气凛然的律师
装作受害者的白人小姐
含泪申冤的黑人山姆
阴险暴力的真正凶手
随便一个都是演技派
影片带给我们许多关于社会、法律、制度和人性的思考
社会就一张充满规则的未知的网
明明人人本该平等
却有许多人被世俗偏见所累，无辜枉死
而有人却处处专制度的空子，逍遥法外
人心不可斗量，世事难以预料
所幸冥冥之中善恶终有报
杀死一只知更鸟
自会有忏悔的打猎者
也会有付出代价的滥杀者
是一部带有一点悬疑的电影，电影把无辜而善良的被害者比做被杀的知更鸟，通过观众对两只"知更鸟"（黑人被告罗宾逊和阿瑟先生）的好奇,吸引观者看下去．有时，先入为主是一处偏见，它会让人们失去判断的客观性和公正性．第一只知更鸟就被当时的社会偏见而杀死了，那时，芬奇的个人能力在整个社会的偏见下显得是如此无能为力． 也许是为了不让观众对社会的未来感到太失望吧，而第二只知更鸟没有被害，因为人们的内心的善良，最终救了这只知更鸟（没有把救了孩子的阿瑟先生抖露出来）．
这是影片在情节设计上的独特之处．不过，也许是时代的局限性吧，整个故事片中体现出的是一种小镇文化，感觉与现代社会还有些遥远．即便如此，还是能看到比我们优越的美国文化因素．如所有黑人在芬奇走出法庭里自觉地起立的场景，让人很感动．还有芬奇与他的子女之间体现出的平等与互相尊敬的家庭关系．还有人与人之间的那种相互尊重．
特别是在片末的那句让我感触的话：＂你永远不会真正了解一个人，除非你站在他的鞋子里，跟着他走．站在拉德得的门外，对我来说已足矣．＂＿＿斯科特与吉姆一直对那个神秘的邻居万分地好奇，但不论如何好奇，你的了解也只能限于他的门前，而不能进入门内．对一个人的了解与隐私的窥探也是如此，是有限度的，不论你对这个人多么好奇与渴望，但总要保留和尊重对方的自有空间．

Comments
The novel covers several themes, delving into humanity, issues of society under the setting of America during the recession in the early 20th century.
Major Theme Good and Evil
To Kill a Mockingbird is an exploration of human morality, and presents a constant conversation regarding the inherent goodness or evilness of people. Atticus, father of Scout and Jem, also plays the role of teacher, for his children and his town. Atticus believes that people usually contain aspects of both good and evil, but that good will usually prevail. Atticus teaches this to his children, but also to the town, as he works to defend Tom Robinson, an innocent black man accused of raping a white woman. In the racist town of Maycomb in the heart of America's South during the Depression era, this is a Herculean task. Despite the challenge of overcoming the town's deeply ingrained racism and forcing people to change their social
perspectives, Atticus struggles on, because he believes that one day, goodness will prevail over the evils of racism and racial equality will exist.
Major Theme Education
Shortly after the novel begins, Scout starts her first year at school. The
educational system in Maycomb leaves much to be desired. Scout is ahead of her classmates because Atticus has taught her to read and write, and Calpurnia has even taught her script. However, once her teacher discovers this, she punishes Scout and tells her not to learn anything else at home, because her father does not know how to teach her properly. This is the first clear conflict between
institutionalized education and education in the home.
Major Theme Social Inequality
Scout elucidates the town's social strata quite clearly on her first day at school when Walter Cunningham does not have lunch or lunch money. Her classmates ask her to explain to the teacher why Walter won't take a loaned quarter to buy lunch, and she lectures the teacher on the Cunningham's financial situation and how they trade goods for services. Scout and the other children have a very clear
understanding of the social inequalities in their town, but see these inequalities as natural and permanent. The Finch family falls rather high up in the social hierarchy, while the Ewell family falls at the bottom. However, this hierarchy only includes white people. Maycomb's black population fall beneath all white families in
Maycomb, including the Ewells, whom Atticus labels as "trash".
Major Theme Perspective
Throughout the novel, Atticus urges his children to try to step into other people's shoes to understand how they see the world. Whenever Scout doesn't understand Jem, Atticus encourages her to try to understand how he might be feeling. Usually, Scout finds this advice helpful, and her attempts to gain insight into other people's perspectives on life and the world broaden her moral education and social understanding.
Major Theme Racism
Obviously, racism is a major theme of the novel. During the Depression era, blacks were still highly subjugated members of society. Blacks were not permitted to commingle with whites in public settings, as exemplified in the courthouse
physical separation of races and in the clearly distinct black and white areas of town. Moreover, things like intermarriage were almost unheard of, and sorely looked down upon.
Throughout the novel, Scout explores the differences between black people and white people. Tom Robinson is convicted purely because he is a black man and his accuser is white. The evidence is so powerfully in his favor, that race is clearly the single defining factor in the jury's decision. Atticus fights against racism, and a few other townspeople are on his side, including Miss Maudie and Judge Taylor. Jem and Scout also believe in racial equality, but are obviously in the minority. When Atticus
wins the trial, he tries to make his children understand that although he lost, he did help move along the cause of ending racism as evidenced by the jury's lengthy deliberation period. Usually, such a trial would be decided immediately.
Reflection
This novel impresses on me profoundly. Prejudice and injustice on the Negro are deeply rooted in people's heart in the small southern town. However, justice and kindness still exist. Though Finch's effort ultimately turned out changeless of the racial tension in the town, his noble spirit had set an good example for people of conscience. Besides, another thing I want to mention is the title “to kill a mockingbird”. Literally, the novel seems to have nothing to do with the mockingbird, but actually, it has a great symbolic meaning. It presents the innocent. We can say the black man, Finch, James and Jane were all mockingbirds. Furthermore, it is a symbol of the noble kind of human quality.
Finch once told his children that never to kill a mockingbird, because this bird never do something evil, it just sing for human beings, it’s a sin to kill it. Likewise, to kill a an innocent black man is also a sin, he just lived quietly, not making any troubles .As people of conscience, we should guard human dignity and equality.

Short Summary
The story takes place in Alabama during the Depression, and is narrated by the main character, a little girl named Jean Louise "Scout" Finch. who lives in their neighborhood but never leaves his house. Legend has it that he once stabbed his father in the leg with a pair of scissors, and he is made out to be a kind of monster. Dill is from Mississippi but spends his summer in Maycomb at a house near the Finch's.
The children are curious to know more about Boo, and during one summer create a mini-drama they enact daily, which tells the events of his life as they know them. Slowly, the children begin moving closer to the Radley house, which is said to be haunted. They try leaving notes for Boo on his windowsill with a fishing pole, but are caught by Atticus, who firmly reprimands them for making fun of a sad man's life. Next, the children try sneaking over to the house at night and looking through its windows. Boo's brother, Nathan Radley, who lives in the house, thinks he hears a prowler and fires his gun. The children run away, but Jem loses his pants in a fence. When he returns in the middle of the night to get them back, they have been neatly folded and the tear from the fence roughly sewn up.
Other mysterious things happen to the Finch children. A certain tree near the Radley house has a hole in which little presents are often left for them, such as pennies, chewing gum, and soap carved figures of a little boy and girl who bear a striking resemblance to Scout and Jem. The children don't know where these gifts are coming from, and when they go to leave a note for the mystery giver, they find that Boo's brother has plugged up the hole with cement. The next winter brings unexpected cold and snow, and Miss Maudie's house catches on fire. While Jem and Scout, shivering, watch the blaze from near the Radley house, someone puts a blanket around Scout without her realizing it. Not until she returns home and Atticus asks her where the blanket came from does she realize that Boo Radley must have put it around her while she was entranced by watching Miss Maudie, her favorite neighbor, and her burning house. , a member of the notorious Ewell family, who belong to the layer of Maycomb society that people refer to as "trash." The Finch family faces harsh criticism in the heavily racist Maycomb because of Atticus's decision to defend Tom. But, Atticus insists on going through with the case because his conscience could not let him do otherwise. He knows Tom is innocent, and also that he has almost no chance at being acquitted, because the white jury will never believe a black man over a white woman. Despite this, Atticus wants to reveal the truth to his fellow townspeople, expose their bigotry, and encourage them to imagine the possibility of racial equality.
Because Atticus is defending a black man, Scout and Jem find themselves whispered at and taunted, and have trouble keeping their tempers. At a family Christmas gathering, Scout beats up her cloying relative when he accuses Atticus of ruining the family name by being a "nigger-lover". Jem cuts off the tops of an old neighbor's flower bushes after she derides Atticus, and as punishment, has to read out loud to her every day. Jem does not realize until after she dies that he is helping her break her morphine addiction. When revealing this to Jem and Scout, Atticus holds this old woman up as an example of true courage: the will to keep fighting even when you know you can't win.
The time for the trial draws closer, and Atticus's sister Alexandra comes to stay with the family. She is proper and old-fashioned and wants to shape Scout into the model of the Southern feminine ideal, much to Scout's resentment. Dill runs away from his home, where his mother and new father don't seem interested in him, and stays in Maycomb for the summer of Tom's trial. The night before the trial, Tom is moved into the county jail, and Atticus, fearing a possible lynching, stands guard outside the jail door all night. Jem is concerned about him, and the three children sneak into town to find him. A group of men arrive ready to cause some violence to Tom, and threaten Atticus in the process. At first Jem, Scout and Dill stand aside, but when she senses true danger, Scout runs out and begins to speak to one of the men, the father of one of her classmates in school. Her innocence brings the crowd out of their mob mentality, and they leave.
The trial pits the evidence of the white Ewell family against Tom's evidence.
According to the Ewells, Mayella asked Tom to do some work for her while her father was out, and Tom came into their house and forcibly beat and raped Mayella until her father appeared and scared him away. Tom's version is that Mayella invited him inside, then threw her arms around him and began to kiss him. Tom tried to push her away. When arrived, he flew into a rage and beat her, while Tom ran away in fright. According to the sheriff's testimony, Mayella's bruises were on the right side of her face, which means she was most likely punched with a left hand. Tom Robinson's left arm is useless due to an old accident, whereas Mr. Ewell leads with his left. Given the evidence of reasonable doubt, Tom should go free, but after hours of deliberation, the jury pronounces him guilty. Scout, Jem and Dill sneak into the courthouse to see the trial and sit in the balcony with Maycomb's black
population. They are stunned at the verdict because to them, the evidence was so clearly in Tom's favor.
Though the verdict is unfortunate, Atticus feels some satisfaction that the jury took so long deciding. Usually, the decision would be made in minutes, because a black man's word would not be trusted. Atticus is hoping for an appeal, but
unfortunately Tom tries to escape from his prison and is shot to death in the process. Jem has trouble handling the results of the trial, feeling that his trust in the goodness and rationality of humanity has been betrayed.
Meanwhile, Mr. Ewell threatens Atticus and other people connected with the trial because he feels he was humiliated. He gets his revenge one night while Jem and Scout are walking home from the Halloween play at their school. He follows them home in the dark, then runs at them and attempts to kill them with a large kitchen knife. Jem breaks his arm, and Scout, who is wearing a confining ham shaped wire costume and cannot see what is going on, is helpless throughout the attack. The elusive Boo Radley stabs Mr. Ewell and saves the children. Finally, Scout has a chance to meet the shy and nervous Boo. At the end of this fateful night, the sheriff declares that Mr. Ewell fell on his own knife so Boo, the hero of the situation, won't have to be tried for murder. Scout walks Boo home and imagines how he has viewed
the town and observed her, Jem and Dill over the years from inside his home. Boo goes inside, closes the door, and she never sees him again
Comments
The novel covers several themes, delving into humanity, issues of society under the setting of America during the recession in the early 20th century.
Major Theme Good and Evil
To Kill a Mockingbird is an exploration of human morality, and presents a constant conversation regarding the inherent goodness or evilness of people. Atticus, father of Scout and Jem, also plays the role of teacher, for his children and his town.
Atticus believes that people usually contain aspects of both good and evil, but that good will usually prevail. Atticus teaches this to his children, but also to the town, as he works to defend Tom Robinson, an innocent black man accused of raping a white woman. In the racist town of Maycomb in the heart of America's South during the Depression era, this is a Herculean task. Despite the challenge of overcoming the town's deeply ingrained racism and forcing people to change their social
perspectives, Atticus struggles on, because he believes that one day, goodness will prevail over the evils of racism and racial equality will exist.
Major Theme Education
Shortly after the novel begins, Scout starts her first year at school. The
educational system in Maycomb leaves much to be desired. Scout is ahead of her classmates because Atticus has taught her to read and write, and Calpurnia has even taught her script. However, once her teacher discovers this, she punishes Scout and tells her not to learn anything else at home, because her father does not know how to teach her properly. This is the first clear conflict between
institutionalized education and education in the home.
Major Theme Social Inequality【杀死一只知更鸟读后感】
Scout elucidates the town's social strata quite clearly on her first day at school when Walter Cunningham does not have lunch or lunch money. Her classmates ask her to explain to the teacher why Walter won't take a loaned quarter to buy lunch, and she lectures the teacher on the Cunningham's financial situation and how they trade goods for services. Scout and the other children have a very clear
understanding of the social inequalities in their town, but see these inequalities as natural and permanent. The Finch family falls rather high up in the social hierarchy, while the Ewell family falls at the bottom. However, this hierarchy only includes white people. Maycomb's black population fall beneath all white families in
Maycomb, including the Ewells, whom Atticus labels as "trash".
Major Theme Perspective
Throughout the novel, Atticus urges his children to try to step into other people's shoes to understand how they see the world. Whenever Scout doesn't understand Jem, Atticus encourages her to try to understand how he might be feeling. Usually, Scout finds this advice helpful, and her attempts to gain insight into other people's perspectives on life and the world broaden her moral education and social understanding.
Major Theme Racism
Obviously, racism is a major theme of the novel. During the Depression era, blacks were still highly subjugated members of society. Blacks were not permitted to commingle with whites in public settings, as exemplified in the courthouse
physical separation of races and in the clearly distinct black and white areas of town. Moreover, things like intermarriage were almost unheard of, and sorely looked down upon.
Throughout the novel, Scout explores the differences between black people and white people. Tom Robinson is convicted purely because he is a black man and his accuser is white. The evidence is so powerfully in his favor, that race is clearly the single defining factor in the jury's decision. Atticus fights against racism, and a few other townspeople are on his side, including Miss Maudie and Judge Taylor. Jem and Scout also believe in racial equality, but are obviously in the minority. When Atticus wins the trial, he tries to make his children understand that although he lost, he did help move along the cause of ending racism as evidenced by the jury's lengthy deliberation period. Usually, such a trial would be decided immediately.
Reflection
This novel impresses on me profoundly. Prejudice and injustice on the Negro are deeply rooted in people's heart in the small southern town. However, justice and kindness still exist. Though Finch's effort ultimately turned out changeless of the racial tension in the town, his noble spirit had set an good example for people of conscience. Besides, another thing I want to mention is the title “to kill a mockingbird”. Literally, the novel seems to have nothing to do with the mockingbird, but actually, it has a great symbolic meaning. It presents the innocent. We can say the black man, Finch, James and Jane were all mockingbirds. Furthermore, it is a symbol of the noble kind of human quality.
Finch once told his children that never to kill a mockingbird, because this bird never do something evil, it just sing for human beings, it’s a sin to kill it. Likewise, to kill a an innocent black man is also a sin, he just lived quietly, not making any troubles .As people of conscience, we should guard human dignity and equality.

Something about humanity
The impressions of《To kill a mockingbird》
I saw this move in three weeks ago, I think this move is very outstanding work. It told us many good things about humanity. The move has a positive significance in the pursuit of racial equality, through the film we saw ourselves and see the good and evil of human nature. This move made me knew some truths. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you, be honest and frank anyway; the good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow, be good anyway; you show sympathy for the weak, people still follow the strong, but you must justice for the weak.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you, be honest and frank anyway. Tom Robinson is a diligent and kind black people. In the south of the US there has very serious racial discrimination at that time. Tom knew the white people despise them. But when Mayella asked him for help. He still helps her generous. When Mayella and her father Bob Ewell frame him up. He never hates the white people. He just feels sorry for Mayella, a white woman. Tom Robinson is a very goodness people. He has many good qualities. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow, be good anyway. The father in the move, Atticus, is a lawyer who was with a feeling for justice. He always helps helping others regardless of whether they have money. He help Walter Cunningham go to court and free of charge. But in order to kill Tom Robinson, Walter Cunningham wants to hurt Atticus. Fortunately the children comes and made angry farmers dispel the idea that to kill Tom Robinson. Atticus never want to takes revenge to those farmers including Bob Ewell so I think he is
a magnanimous person.
You show sympathy for the weak, people still follow the strong, but you must justice for the weak. Atticus as a white people to against racial discrimination at that time is very courageous. The racist in that town all hate him, after the court Bob Ewell tried to fight with him and hurt his children. Atticus still help the black people and poor people. The local black all respect him very much. I think these must to do to be a good father and lawyer. He methods of life, his philosophy and values have a deep influence on his children. I believe that Scout and Jem will become honest good people.
This novel is a precious relics is what I want to say. At that kind、elegant and simple in the US, this novel keeps the hope and emotion for the people. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you, be honest and frank anyway; the good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow, be good anyway; you show sympathy for the weak, people still follow the strong, but you must justice for the weak. These things told me that there are many bad thing in the world; but there are also exist great things in the world. What we think, what we saw.
