Setting Chapter 1 – Into the Primitive Fall of 1897

Selected Characters PROTAGONIST ANTAGONIST

BUCK – Powerful Dog Manuel – Gardener's helper for Judge Miller

Tone – Nostalgic to Serious

Nostalgic- words talking about the past in a better light: old days, quiet, gently, antique, personable, better back then

Serious- the tone is very staid and strong; no humor evident

The tome that Jack London used for this chapter is nostalgic at first, but then changes in to being very serious tone towards the ending.

Chapter 1 Quote: Jack London shows how Buck handles the club. “He was the

beaten (he knew that); but he was not broken.” Jack London describes the calmness and peace in Buck’s life. “On

wintry nights he lay at the Judge’s feet before the roaring library fire.”

“SERIOUS” FACE

Plot Summary Buck had to leave his

friends at the ranch behind after he was stolen by Manuel. He left behind a comfortable and pampered life on the judges estate. He had never been treated cruelly and was in great surprise when his journey began in the wild.
