Analyzing the WindInherit the Wind, by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. LeePlot Cates is thrown into jail for teaching the etymon of the world contrary to what the bible says. Brady is coming to Hillsboro for the trail. Hornbeck announces he will bring Drummond to defend Cates. Both sides choose the remaining members of the jury. Cates almost pulls out but doesnt. Howard is c every last(predicate)ed to exhibit. Rachel is called to testify and the end of Bradys questioning emotionally destroys her. So Cates doesnt let Drummond question her, loosing a big part of the case. The judge rejects all of Drummonds witnesses. Drummond calls Brady to testimony about the bible. Drummond uses the bible and Bradys testimony on is favor and turns many followers at least less biased. The court found Cates guilty and sentenced to a hundred dollars fine Drummond wanted to appeal the decision to the Supreme Court. Brady while giving a speech to get his followers back died. Drummond took both the open ing of evolution and the bible home.Characters Drummond Supposed atheist, defendant lawyer and friend of Matthew Brady.Brady Religious leader, lawyer against Cates and presidential candidate.Cates Schoolteacher accused of teaching the theory of evolution, Rachels sheik and believed the church had some wrong thoughts about some things.Hornbeck Cynical reporter, paid all the expenses of the defendant, hated ignorance, hence he hated Hillsboro.SettingHillsboro, around spend of 1925, July to be exact.ConflictThe main characters difficulties were mainly each other, or the way they saw the world. Drummonds greatest difficulty is to open states minds about everything. Bradys difficulty was to record God or the bible right against such a powerful speaker, as was Drummond. And Cates conflict is to prove to everybody he has not done wrong by teaching the theory of evolution.Point of ViewIt is a play, so there is no point of view. Or theres everybodys point of view.Themes One should always keep an open mind to new ideas, no matter how absurd they may sound. (Drummond says it all the way through the book). People with different point of views may be thinking in the parallel but seem to differ. (The bible tells the story of the root word of the world not in the same way as Darwins surmisal of Evolution does. That doesnt mean one of them is incorrect, simply, the story is told from different points of view. The Theory of Evolution is a fact book.
