Inherit The Wind Analysis

The Divine Wind, written by Garry Disher, is a novel in which not only shows and describes the struggle of characters during World War II in Broome, Australia, but also the many aspects of prejudice which affect namingly Ida Penrose, Mitsy Sennosuke, and Magistrate Killian.

According to Valerie Tarico many sacred texts, including the Bible, “protect” parts of the Iron Age — when people, especially priests, used God’s name and the scripture as a way to endorse their impulses, temper, and sense of superiority. Brown, a perfect example to what Tarico was saying, was using the Bible as a way to fuel his aggression so that he would be able to show the town of Hillsboro that his way of thinking is exactly the same as their God’s way of thinking. Reverend Brown seems to want his town to stay in this state of ignorance and when people get out of line and try to change the perfect little bubble he had created for himself he exploded. His agitation increased as ideas that were different and unknown to Brown began to enter his town and when he exploded the agitation that was building inside of his is filtered through the religion he is a part

Inherit the Wind is about a 24-year-old teacher named Bertram T. Cates, who is arrested for teaching Darwin's Theory of Evolution to his junior high-class. Some high-profile Hillsboro town’s people press charges and have Cates arrested for teaching evolutionism in a stringent Christian town. A famous lawyer named Henry Drummond defends him; while a fundamentalist politician Matthew Harrison Brady prosecutes. The story takes place in Hillsboro, which is a small town in Tennessee. Cates is merely trying to teach to his class that there is more to life than just what the Bible teaches. He is not trying to be nonreligious; rather he is just teaching his class to think outside the box. The town’s people think that Cates is trying to push

The purpose of each man’s journey was different. Brown’s journey was a systematic breakdown of his faith. It succeeded. All the people he held as pious and in high regard were found out to be involved with the devil. Brown was inflexible and allowed this to permanently disrupt his faith in humanity. He became “a stern, a sad, a darkly meditative, a distrustful, if not desperate man” after the events of his journey. The rest of his life “he shrank from the bosom of Faith.” Brown led an unhappy life because he lost his faith. Robin on the other hand did not. His journey was a systematic breakdown of another sort. His

He never finds any proof of evilness in his wife or the respected people around him, but he still chooses to be doubtful. The subtle message that the story gives is that “doubt” is the culprit and men are at fault for succumbing to it. Doubting does not make Brown’s life any better. He never trusted anybody and he were not even deceived by anybody. So the story shows that by having faith, he could have changed his life. He could have lived much more happily.

he moves on while conversing with the devil and he finds out the first surprising thing of his eventful night .The devils informs Young Good Man Brown that his father and grand father have been involved in evil deeds such as dragging a woman through the streets and setting fire to an Indian village. Their conversation is interrupted by another character in the tale and that is Goody Cloys who happened to be Young Good Man Brown's catechism teacher in his childhood so therefore she is a religious figure. (Goody Cloys is based on an actual person tried during the Salem witch trail around the same time Young Good Man Brown) .try imagines what goes through his minds as he listens to the conversation between the two.

Seeing his fellow church members and his wife among women who were convicted and put to death for being witches makes Brown question himself. Yet, still Brown abhors transgression. Although he avoids Satan, however, he cannot forget how Satan influenced him with what he saw that night. He became " a stern, a sad, a darkly meditative, a distrustful, if not a desperate man" (Hawthorne 1244) and lived his life this way until death.

Faith knew that she wasn’t strong enough to go against the devil. She was all in doubt, questioning her own faith, but just always tried/ wanted to stay strong for Brown. Once Brown started seeing everybody else crossover including his wife Faith, he too begin to doubt his own faith, and belief in God. Brown started to feel himself get weak, so he lifts his hands to pray. When he started praying, a dark black cloud shifted northward and came along some confused doubtful voices. A lot of voices was clouding Brown’s mind but he stayed strong, and firm. He didn’t let nothing, or nobody get to him. He was very hurt by the fact of seeing his wife crossing over to the devil side. Brown got back home and saw his wife sitting there with the same pink ribbons in her head. He then too began to think that he was dreaming or if it was a true story or not. As I stated at the beginning of my essay, everything that had happened was something convinced by evil. The evil Travelers were trying to convince others to be of the Devil and not God. Now he wonders why his neither Grandfather nor Father took that dark gloomy path, and was always in the house before midnight. He also sees why his wife didn’t want him to go on that evil journey. Brown doesn’t know what to believe, he doesn’t know if his wife crossed over to be with the devil or not. His mind is playing tricks on him. Since Brown is having those thoughts, he

Brown was a sophisticated man, “..but much of an unbeliever, and wickedly undertook, some years after, to travesty the Bible in doggrel verse, as Cotton had done Virgil.”[7] In this way, he would present very absurd facts which would affect the perspective of the uneducated citizens; but his work was never

However the devil overpowers his sense to go back and he continues on into the forest. The devil gives Brown a lot of information about his family and ancestors, and how they did terrible things such as worship the devil and practice black art. In the forest Brown also witnesses many people from his town; people that he thought were good and would never do evil things. He sees his childhood Sunday school teacher, the minister, and the deacon all on their way to worship the devil.

First, I will elaborate on the lies Faith and Brown had for each other, which builds up deception and their lack of faith in their relationship. When Brown is leaving Faith to meet with the Devil, Faith pleads but finally relents and states, “Then God bless you...and may you find all well when you come back” (Hawthorne, 387). Her gesture is sincere because she wishes him good luck and hopes that no harm comes his way. She even trusts Brown enough to go on a journey he did not further detail. However, Faith is contradicting with both words and appearance. Her strange word choice of

Then he turned toward the woman and said to Simon, ‘Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me any water for my feet, but she wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. 45 You did not give me a kiss, but this woman, from the time I entered, has not stopped kissing my feet. 46 You did not put oil on my head, but she has poured perfume on my feet. 47 Therefore, I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven—as her great love has shown. But whoever has been forgiven little loves little.’ 48 Then Jesus said to her, ‘Your sins are forgiven’”

This scene is ironic because, only moments before Brown declared that his faith was gone, he cried, “’With Heaven above, and Faith below, I will yet stand firm against the devil!’” (Hawthorne 266). He was also about to pray to God before he saw the cloud and lost the last vestige of his faith (Hawthorne 266). Though Brown claimed to have faith in God, as soon as his Faith was gone from below, his faith in God was revealed to be insubstantial and feeble.

Brown believes that his wife should be excluded from the meeting so she will remain pure, yet somehow believes that his presence is mandatory and gives no thought to his own purity. He believes that Faith's immediate acceptance into heaven will pull him along with her, regardless of his sinful actions. Brown's nervousness about his journey shows that he is conscious of the risks, yet he refuses the possibility of remaining home because he believes in his own ability to resist corruption, even if he does not believe in Faith's. Brown's willingness to make an exception for his own actions while refusing the same exception for Faith is one of Hawthorne's first scornful examples of hypocrisy. Similarly, Hawthorne highlights the hypocritical juxtaposition of Brown's actions during and after the ritual. When Brown discovers Faith's pink hair ribbon and realizes the Devil has taken her, he is terrified and continuously searches for her as the Devil speaks. However, upon finding her and waking up from his dream, he treats her differently because of her attendance: "Often, awaking suddenly at midnight, he shrank from the bosom of Faith; and at morning or eventide, when the family knelt down
