How do I analyze a quote?
-
I have been getting bad grades on analysis. The teacher gives us quotes from a book called Huckelberry Finn and I get bad grades. My parents are pissed. I want some advice on how to analyze quotes because I am not good at this. But I would like more general advice then specific because we will have other books thoughout the school year and I want to get good on them too.

Answer:
Read between the lines. Quotes mean more than its literal meaning and it is often figurative, meaning it uses Figure of speech.

The most important thing is to look at the quote in the book, and comment on what it means in the context of the story and character. Think about when and where it was written, and what attitudes of the time the author is writing about. A lot of people make the mistake of trying to analyze a quote in isolation, which makes it easy to completely misunderstand it.
