The adventurous character Tom in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark TwainThe needle pricked the finger to let the blood flow onto the peace of the pine shingles to finalize the oath that was to keep them "mama" (76) on the murder of which they had just witnessed it. Mark Twain's book, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1985), is set in the mid-1800s and chronicles the adventures of Tom Sawyer. The adventures began with Tom and his friend, Huckleberry Fin, sneaking out and accidentally witnessing a murder. They then promise never to say a word about it. Throughout the book, they forget about the murder and decide to go play pirates and pan for gold, but a murder trial finally comes, and it haunts Tom because an innocent person, Muff Potter, is on the about to be executed. Tom opens his mouth to say who the murderer was, then Tom and his friend risk being the next victims, but fate catches up with the murderer and he starves to death in a cave when the door is locked. The finale of the novel is Tom and Huck finding the chest of gold, which made them both prosper. Throughout the novel, Twain uses an excellent approach to make the novel a very good read due to the fascinating characterization of Tom Sawyer. The dominant techniques that Twain uses to characterize Tom as an adventurous young man are his appearance, his thoughts, what others think of him, his actions, and his speech. Tom's appearance is the first element that strengthens his character. His appearance is constantly changing. Tom starts off most of the time looking like a cleaned-up young man in nice clothes, but it usually never fails that through Tom's adventures, rough play, fighting, mischief, or swimming, his clothes become end in the middle of the paper. ....t example because if a person was fighting, they wouldn't say "You say enough when you've had enough." The use in the story makes it more realistic. Another good example of Tom's speech is when he talks about the money the thieves had obtained. He said, “It’s not a dream, so it’s not a dream!” Somehow I wish that was the case. I'll be sued if I don't, Huck” (169). This is another good example because Tom was really excited when he said this, so he didn't care about good speech and grammar. Twain did a very good job characterizing Thomas Sawyer. To do this, he effectively used characterization techniques, including appearance, his thoughts, what others think of him, his actions, and his speech, to formulate a very interesting exploitative character.
