ESSAY #17
TOPIC:
GENTLEMEN AND LADIES
IN TKAMSome readers have called Atticus "a true gentleman", and he called Mrs. Dubose "a great lady". How might Atticus fit the definition of a gentleman, and why would Atticus call Mrs. Dubose "a great lady?" Is Jem in training to become a gentleman? Is Scout becoming a "lady" -- and what does being a lady mean? How about Miss Maudie? Is she a lady? Aunt Alexandra? Is Little Chuck Little a gentleman?
