.... the librarian and the user to understand” (Gale Research, 1). Like the Dewey Decimal System Maycomb also had its classification system. In the book, Jem confused the Dewey Decimal System with John Dewey’s philosophy of education. This is clear when Scout says, “What Jem called the Dewey Decimal System was school wide by the end of my first year, so I had no chance to compare it to any other teaching technique, I could only look around me” (Lee 37). Dewey’s educational philosophy was the new way students were to be taught in the Maycomb schools. It stressed the hands on experientia .....

.... Swift despised. The small size of the Lilliputians is in inverse proportion to the amount of their corruption. Similarly, the Brobdingnagians find Gulliver's culture to be too violent for the size of its people, and Gulliver's pride in describing the English is offset by his puniness. Swift characterizes the giants of Book II to be imperfect but extremely moral, possibly the ideal for how a society could be in Swift's (or our) time. In Book III, swift satirizes the philosophical movements of rational thought that were popular in the 17th and 18th centuries. The overkill of geometry and oth .....
