LEARNING TARGETS              

I can prove I understand the concept of varying points of view by writing a story or narrative essay from a different point of view.



        MINI-LESSON          

READ THIS ESSAY about the two different points of view from which Harper Lee narrates the novel.


Two Points of Narrative Perspective

To Kill a Mockingbird switches between the perspectives of an older Scout and a younger Scout, which enhances the novel's appeal in several ways.

Firstly, the older Scout provides a retrospective and reflective voice to the narrative, which allows the reader to understand the significance of events that occur in the story. As the older Scout looks back on her childhood, she is able to offer insights and observations that she was not capable of as a child, which adds depth and complexity to the novel.

Secondly, the use of two different narrative perspectives allows the reader to see how Scout's experiences and perspectives change as she grows up. The younger Scout is innocent and naive, while the older Scout has a greater understanding of the world around her. This contrast allows the reader to appreciate the character development that takes place throughout the novel.

Thirdly, the use of two different narrative perspectives allows the reader to appreciate the novel's themes of memory and the passage of time. The older Scout's reflections on her childhood remind the reader that time is passing and that memories fade, which adds a sense of poignancy and nostalgia to the story.

Finally, the use of two different narrative perspectives allows the novel to address issues of social justice and inequality from both a child's and an adult's perspective. As a child, Scout is able to witness the injustices of her community in a raw and unfiltered way, while as an adult, she is able to reflect on these experiences and understand them in a broader social context.

In summary, the use of two different narrative perspectives in To Kill a Mockingbird enhances the novel's appeal by providing a retrospective and reflective voice, allowing for character development, exploring themes of memory and the passage of time, and addressing issues of social justice and inequality from both a child's and an adult's perspective.
