The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: Images of Jim

Describing Jim (actions, beliefs, and feelings):
1.) Stubborn
2.) Naive
3.) Loyal
4.) Caring
5.) Strong
6.) Superstitious
7.) Knowledgeable
8.) Independent

Jim's physical appearance:
1.) Black
2.) Big
3.) Strong
4.)Intimidating




These top two pictures combined would be the way I see Jim. He is a strong man, but he is also loyal, and caring. He would follow Huck, and he would help him. He's not a stern as the first picture shows, but he is definitely someone you wouldn't want to mess with. 






This image shows what I would not think of Jim as. This person seems lazy, and disheveled. Jim is not those things. He is a hard worker, and he may have been a slave, and his clothes are probably ripped, but he doesn't look awkward like this.

Jim: A character or caricature?
Honestly I think that Jim is both a character and a caricature. He is funny, and witty, and sometimes a little arrogant, but overall he is a strong, loyal, caring man. I think the best way to explain who Jim is, is that he is a character who at times acts like a caricature of himself. His personality can at times be extreme.
