The issue which I like the most in the novella is fitting in the Victorian society. Victorian society was one that was famous for being very strict when it came to social acceptance. We see Dr. Jekyll as a highly ranked man according to the society's values and beliefs, being very educated and wealthy. He, like many others is not actually content with his position in the society because he has to hold back his urges. Showing individualism and emotions was forbidden in the Victorian society, which is something he craved, yet wasn't allowed because it would ruin his position. This is the main reason why he started turning into Mr. Hyde. It was like a valve that he could use to blow of some steam without ruining his reputation.
It is c because it will have a more positive connotation.
Three examples of Jem showing maturity in To Kill a Mockingbird are when he refuses to leave Atticus with the lynch mob, when he invites Walter Cunningham to their house for lunch, and when he protects Scout from Bob Ewell's attack.
One quote that demonstrates Scout's maturity in To Kill a Mockingbird can found towards the beginning of chapter 28, when she walks past the Radley residence at night. Scout tells Jem, "It is a scary place though, ain't it?... Boo doesn't mean anybody any harm, but I'm right glad you're along" (Lee, 258).
The overall message, or theme, in To Kill a Mockingbird is that every human being deserves to be treated with dignity. In the beginning of the story, we learn that children should be treated with dignity.
She shows growth in her maturity by realizing Boo is a generous man that risked his life to save hers. In chapter 30, Scout provides further evidence of her maturity while showing Boo to the front porch.
Scout loses her innocence in To Kill a Mockingbird when she watches the jury deliver a guilty verdict in the Tom Robinson trial, despite the overwhelming evidence that Robinson is innocent.
