Abstract

In the heart of Harper Lee's „To Kill a Mockingbird,” set against the American Deep South's complex tapestry during the 1930s, lies a profound exploration of judicial mechanisms, both fictional and non-fictional. This novel, transcending mere storytelling, becomes a lens through which the intricate interplay of racial tensions, societal constructs, and ethical dilemmas are scrutinized. Within its pages, the courtroom is not just a setting for legal battles but a vivid symbol of Maycomb's tumultuous sociocultural landscape. This paper ventures into the depths of Lee's narrative to unravel the complex dialogue between the idealistic pursuits of justice and the harsh realities of ingrained prejudice. Through an English as a Foreign Language (EFL) or English for Specific Purposes (ESP) teaching lens, this analysis will highlight the courtroom scenes’ educational potential, emphasizing their value in fostering critical thinking, cultural awareness, and moral reasoning in a global learning context.
