A Dog's Tale Poetry O Lord, Our Father Mark Twain Search all of Mark Twain American writer, journalist, humorist, who won a worldwide audience for his stories of youthful adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. Sensitive to the sound of language, Twain introduced colloquial speech into American fiction. In Green Hills of Africa, Ernest Hemingway wrote: "All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn..." "When I was a boy, there was but one permanent ambition among my comrades in our village on the west bank of the Mississippi River. That was, to be a steamboatman." (from 'Old Times on the Mississippi', 1875) Clemens was born in Florida, Missouri, of a Virginian family. He was brought up in Hannibal, Missouri. After his father's death in 1847, Twain was apprenticed to a printer and wrote for his brother's newspaper. Twain worked later as a licensed Mississippi river-boat pilot (1857-61), adopting his name from the call ('Mark twain!' - meaning by the mark of two fathoms) used when sounding river shallows. The Civil War put an end to the steamboat traffic and Clemens moved to Virginia City, where he edited two years Territorial Enterprise. On February 3, 1863, 'Mark Twain' was born when he signed a humorous travel account with that pseudonym.

Notebook used by Clemens as a cub pilot April-July 1857 "My boy, you must get a little memorandum-book, and every time I tell you a thing, put it down right away. There's only one way to be a pilot, and that is to get this entire river by heart. You have to know it just like A B C." Clemens received this advice from Horace Bixby, the river pilot who "learned" him the river. Ruled for use as a ledger, this notebook also contains the cargo records of a steamboat clerk, suggesting that Clemens probably acquired it in some haste from that clerk. The dense texture of navigational directions on the pages displayed includes the young pilot's notes in the area of St. Louis. "Lost and ruined sinner as I am" Letter to Mollie Clemens, 18 June 1858

The Mark Twain Resources on the World Wide Web The Premise of Shelley Fisher Fishkin's latest work on Mark Twain, Lighting Out For The Territory , can be summed up as follows: If Mark Twain was "a young boy who accepts slavery as natural and right and grows up to become a man who asserts that civilization began when slavery was abolished," how would the exploiters of his name and work deal with so complex a story? In visiting Twain's home town of Hannibal, Missouri, Fisher Fishkin found little evidence of the work of a man who in Huckleberry Finn wrote some of the most significant anti-racist literature in this country's history. What she found instead was a town that devoted itself to Twain's more innocent look at childhood

Proverbs xxxii, 7. I went often to look at the collection of curiosities in Heidelberg Castle, and one day I surprised the keeper of it with my German. I spoke entirely in that language. He was greatly interested; and after I had talked a while he said my German was very rare, possibly a "unique"; and wanted to add it to his museum. If he had known what it had cost me to acquire my art, he would also have known that it would break any collector to buy it. Harris and I had been hard at work on our German during several weeks at that time, and although we had made good progress, it had been accomplished under great difficulty and annoyance, for three of our teachers had died in the mean time. A person who has not studied German can form no idea of what a perplexing language it is.

56. The Mark Twain House Descriptive overview. http://www.loc.gov/bicentennial/propage/CT/ct-1_h_larson7.html

The Mark Twain House The Mark Twain House is significant as a core symbol of Hartford's rich Victorian legacy and as tangible evidence of the residence of one of America's most important and influential literary figures. In 1873, Samuel L. Clemens, better known as Mark Twain, purchased land at the western edge of the City of Hartford, in an area known as Nook Farm. He engaged the New York architect, Edward Tuckerman Potter, to design the house. Mrs. Clemens had sketched a layout showing the relationship of the various rooms to views over the then open countryside. The house was completed in 1874, and the Clemens family moved in during September of that year. In 1881, following the success of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and several lecture tours, the kitchen wing was enlarged, and the major rooms completely redecorated by "Associated Artists," a distinguished firm of interior designers, which included Louis Comfort Tiffany, Lockwood de Forest, Candace Thurber Wheeler, and Samuel Colman. Clemens, his wife and three children lived here from 1874 to 1891.

Zurück zum Start Neue Besprechungen Alle Besprechungen Zum nächsten Buch Mark Twain - Tom Sawyers Abenteuer L E S E L U S T Aufbau Taschenbuch Verlag 267 Seiten ISBN: Ersch. 1876 unter dem Titel "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" Aus dem Amerikanischen von Lore Krüger Die Abenteuer eines kleinen Jungen Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts in den Südstaaten - wer kennt nicht die Namen Tom Sawyer und Huck Finn? Als die beiden Lausbuben einmal mitten in der Nacht aufbrechen, um sich mittels einer toten Katze auf dem Friedhof all ihrer Warzen auf einmal und endgültig zu entledigen, werden sie Zeuge eines Mordes. Und sie sehen auch, wie Indianer Joe den Mord geschickt einem andern in die Schuhe schiebt. Aber etwas sagen? Viel zu gefährlich! Sie schwören sich feierlich, nie im Leben zu verraten, was sie gesehen hatten. Oder sie würden beide auf der Stelle tot umfallen. Ungerechte Behandlung zu Hause veranlasst sie, das Weite zu suchen. Piratenleben, das wäre doch ohnehin das einzig Wahre! Ein paar Tage lang halten sie das auch durch, ahnend, dass die gesamte Stadt mittlerweile fest an ihren Tod glauben würde. Doch rechtzeitig zu ihrer eigenen Beerdigung erscheinen sie wieder zu Hause - und sind nun natürlich die Helden der Schule.
