However, at the end of chapter 11, Atticus tells the children that “courage is not a man with a gun in his hands.” What is the point of juxtaposing these two chapters together? According to Atticus, why are the children not to be proud of what they had witnessed earlier? Discuss the point of bringing Mrs. Dubose into the novel.
