Huckleberry Finn has a deeper connection with Jim than with any other character in the novel. This contrast is especially striking given contemporary attitudes on race; though published after the Civil War, it recreates an antebellum Southern society that was completely organized around slavery. Relationships between white and black people were thought to be inevitably antagonistic, a master-slave relationship and not one of equals. Huck, however, does not see Jim as a servant; rather, he feels a kinship with him. Both are outcasts; Jim because he is a black man in a slave society, Huck because of his family situation. His father is abusive and alcoholic who doesn't care for him, and the two women who sometimes care for him try to change his character. Therefore he feels at odds in society, and has trouble fitting in. This makes him more sympathetic to Jim than to other white people.

Which sentence from the passage best shows that Juhan values the culture of his homeland?
Naddika [18.5K]
Hi there! I feel that C.) would be the best answer for this question. Fighting in a war wouldn't show that you value the culture of your homeland, like shown in answer A.). B and D seem irrelevant to the question at hand, and since the language of a country relates directly to the culture and answer C.) shows that Juhan values it, it'd be safest to go with that answer.
