----some about ¡¶Pudd¡¯nhead Wilson¡·
¢ñ Abstract
In 1830 Dawson¡¯s landing, Missouri, is a small town. ... He led one of the most exciting and adventuresome of literary lives. ... And finally, the Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885), that the literary establishment recognized him as one of the greatest writers America would ever produce. ... ¡¯¡±
She began to move about like one in a dream. ... that is Mark Twain¡¯s idea of slaver: It¡¯s absurd to consider black to be low-grade people. ... He had just made the acquaintance of a group of citizens when an invisible dog began to yelp and snarl and owl and make himself very comprehensively disagreezble, whereupon young Wilson said, much as one who is thinking aloud: ¡° I wish I owned half of that dog. ... One said: ¡°¡¯Pears to be a fool. ... If he owned one half of the general dog, it would be so; if e owned one end of the dog and another person owned the other end, it would be so, just the same; particularly in the first case, because if you kill one half of a general dog, there ain¡¯t any man that can tell whose half it was, but if he owned one end of the dog, maybe he could kill his end of it and-----¡± ¡° No, he couldn¡¯t, either; he couldn¡¯t and not be responsible if the other end died, which it would. ... 4, ¡°He¡¯s a labrick----just a simon¡ªpure labrick, if ever there was one. ...
¡°It¡¯s absurd to consider black to be low-grade people¡±, as a matter of fact, they own the ability to learn, to think, to do, even to guide. Mark Twain is the one who notice that and working to abolish slavery.
