A PRESENTATION BY CLARA, FREDERIKE AND LUISA TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD

OUTLINE Why we chose the book The characters The setting The „mockingbird“ – metaphor About the author The movie The race discrimination Our final opinion

WHY WE CHOSE THE BOOK Nice cover Well-known book Translated into more than 20 languages “Smart” book

THE CHARACTERS

SCOUT Narrator „Scout“ Jean Louise Finch A tomboy During the book 6 to 9 years old Daughter of Atticus Finch Mother died when she was 2 Brother of Jem

JEM Brother of Scout During the book 10 – 14 years old Loves his sister and protects her In second part he reaches puberty Feels very smart (like an adult)

ATTICUS Lawyer and resident of Maycomb county Father of Scout and Jem Wise and thoughtful Character based on Harper Lee‘s own father

THE SETTING Maycomb county Alabama (south-western USA) Next to the Alabama river Between Mobile and Montgomery

THE SETTING Scout lives in the main road Neighbours: Rachel Haverford, Stephenie Crawford Different areas of population

THE „MOCKINGBIRD“-METAPHOR “Shoot all the bluejays you want, but remember it it’s sin to kill a mockingbird” “Mockingbirds don't do one thing but make music for us to enjoy... but sing their hearts out for us. That's why it's a sin to kill a mockingbird.”

ABOUT THE AUTHOR Nelle Harper Lee was born on 28th april 1926 in Monroeville Her childhood was quite similar to Scout‘s Wanted to be a writer since she was seven

ABOUT THE AUTHOR Moved to New York, there she began her writing career An agent encouraged her to expand one of her stories into a novel because of her frequent trips to Alabama, she was inspired to the story of “To kill a mockingbird” The book was finally published in 1960 She became suddenly famous but did not like being the object of attention

THE MOVIE 1962 American film adaptation Directed by Robert Mulligan Gregory Peck as Atticus Finch Won three Oscars (eight nominations) Several scenes from the book were cut out

THE RACE DISCRIMINATION Opinion of Scout‘s teacher: “Over here we don’t believe in persecuting anybody. Persecution comes from people who are prejudiced.”

THE RACE DISCRIMINATION Black people have always been discriminated They are called Niggers, …. Originally slaves Law of racial segregation still exists

OUR FINAL OPINION Great book Hard to read (accent) Fantastic story Tells very smart things about the human being and life Everyone could understand it Nice to watch the movie
