Mark Twain, born on November 30, 1835 in Hannibal, Florida, became one of the greatest American authors to ever develop. Known for his sharp wit and dignified commentary on society, politics, and the human condition, many of his essays and novels, including his American classics, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, are his wit and intelligence. - is a testament to his intelligence. To mitigate the danger of his harsh observations and criticisms, and from satire, he drew upon the injustices and vices of society and certain parts of human life in his writing. He was a humorist, author, publisher, entrepreneur, speaker, iconic celebrity who always wore white to his lectures, political satirist and social progressive. When Halley's Groom reappeared in the night sky on April 21, 1910, the world behaved as if it had arrived 75 years earlier. As Trofe and earlier, Twain said: "I came up with Halley's Comet in 1835. Next year (1910) it will come again, and I expect to come out with it. If I don't come up with Halley's Comet, it will be the greatest disappointment of my life. Undoubtedly: “Here are these two unknown freaks, together, they must go out together.” Twain died of a heart attack in 1910, one day after the appearance of the star of Comet. In 1866 he was a sophisticated, intelligent man, as he preferred to introduce himself when he began a lecture entitled "The Sandwich Islands are Our Branch Savages." Twain was a complex mix of Southern boy and Western ruffian trying to fit into elite Yankee culture. He wrote in 1881 in a speech on Plymouth Rock and the Pilgrims Growing up in Hannibal, Missouri had a lasting influence on Twain, and the Civil War was one of his greatest pleasures, working as a boat captain for several years. Aboard the Bukhara ship, he observed many passengers and learned much about their character and influence. In the 1860s, he worked as a miner and journalist in Nevada and California, which introduced him to the rough and swampy ways of the west, where, on February 3, 1863, he first used the name Mark Twain in Nevada. One of his funny essays for the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise. Mark Twain means river boat, which means two mudflats, the point where a boat is safe to enter the water. When Samuel Clemens adopted the name of this rule, he also adopted another persona - that of Sheikh Samuel Clueys, a person who portrayed a simple man who entertained the aristocrats he ruled. Twain got his big break as a writer in 1865. With an article about life at the Jumping Frog mining camp, named after Jim T. Smiley and Calaveras County's Celebrated Jumping Frog. It was very well received and featured in newspapers and magazines across the country. From there he took other jobs and was sent to Hawaii, then to Europe and the Holy Land as a traveler. In 1869, he wrote a book called Chet elda, which became a bestseller, from these travels. His books and essays were generally well received, and he began to teach and promote them, becoming popular both as a writer and speaker. When he married Olivia Langdon in 1870, he married into a wealthy family in Elmira, New York, and moved to Buffalo, New York, and then Hartford. There he partnered with the Hartford Courant Publisher. A novel about greed and corruption among the wealthy after a civil war. Interestingly, this was also the society he wanted and gained access to. But Twain also lost his losses - the loss of investments in lucky inventions (and not to invest in those that were successful in Alexander Graham Bell's telephone) and the death of people he loved, for example, on a river boat, he responsible for several children and a beloved wife. Although Twain survived, grew up, and grew out of humor, his humor, the complex view of life, the contradictions, cruelties and absurdities of life were understood. As they once said: "There is no laughter in heaven." Mark TWAIN Award Twain was greatly admired and recognized as an American icon during his lifetime. An award created in his honor, the Mark Twain Award of Humor of the United States, the country's top comedy honor, has been named annually since 1998 for "people who have influenced American society the best writer and essayist of the 19th century Mark Twain. "The previous winner of the award was among the most famous humorists of our time. The 2017 award was given to David Letterman, who, according to New York Times writer Dave Itzkoff, "like Mark Twain ... defined American manners, later in life, for his striking and distinctive facial hair." chose himself as an extremely dangerous bystander. Now the two vendors are sharing another connection." I was wondering what Mark Twain would think about the absurdity of today's government, ourselves and our world. But surely there will be depth and humor to help us "face the attack" and maybe even give us pause. Learn about Mark Twain’s Writing Style, his humorous satire and his famed use of vernacular dialogue, as well as our great learning resources. Mark Twain’s writing style is characterised by humour, strong narrative and evocative descriptions, as well as a brilliant control of vernacular speech. Mark Twain was a humorist, journalist and novelist who became famous internationally for his distinctive style of travel and fictional narratives. In particular, his novels The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn were widely enjoyed. Mark Twain was the master of dialect. He ear for dialect is phenomenal because in both of his more known works, "Huckleberry Finn" and "Tom Sawyer" there are some 21 regional dialects involved--so those who read the books superficially never realize the amount of authenticity involved. Mark Twain also was one of the original writers of SF Chronicle so actually he did a lot that people do not credit him and he had very keen eye for reality and the skill to make clean sketches of it so that the reader feels directly involved in the even going on. He was a humanitarian and highlighted the inequalities of social snobbery, racism and no great love for slavery or human exploitation. If you think that he left home, was uneducated and established himself as one of the greatest novellist of English literature-- you have to step back and admire him because he is the father of a long line of future journalists or social commentators such as Steinbeck. his novels document very accurately society at his time, so he is used as social history in literature to give good reflection of actual society t his time because he was not an idealist or romanticist. He was also a writer who helped spawn the tradition of whodunnits and westerns and a tremendous travel writer. He was known as great essayist, so anyone who only reads "Tom Sawyer" or "Huckleberry Fin" has very superficial view of his overall work because whatever he wrote, like Kipling he knew and understood the technical details. His essay "Life along Mississippi" is very accurate account of what it took to navigate the river with photographic detail of navigation and technical problems of soundings. Twain was first and foremost a journalist, so his eye for detail and ability to narrate a story is incredibly vivid because he does it in cinematic detail, even if it is the JumpingFrog. People brush him off for the two books, but they don't stop to think about the risks or controversy he probably raised in writing those two books because it's not Tom who is the hero-- it's the slave and really very little could be stronger than this in protesting human rights or recognition of gross injustice in the world. He used the perople who were reviled and social outcasts and identified their plights and the hardships of their lives and so impacted social thinking. Kipling did much the same, but in Kim he used the boy who was outcast because of his mixed race… So Mark Twain probably influenced and is father to those other great writers such as Steinbeck and Upton Sinclair-- the social protestors who brought the ugliness of American social class into the face of society. Probably even Dreiser was influenced by Twain, so it's very hard to discount somebody who was uneducated and yet became one of the major writers in American letters and took American literature/ writing to the world. He befriended writers, supported writers and wrote a lot of literary criticism. He was master of all genres which in itself amazing. He totally influenced publishing industry by the issue of his sketchbooks which offered a smattering of everything because he felt that a literary publication should appeal broadly to all readers. His works are so extensive that there isn't a complete authoritative list and he used more pseudonyms than any other known writer and his use of Mark Twin is used officially s his name because it is the one he used most often and the bulk of his work falls under this name. So it's very very hard to overrate Mark Twain, but few ever seriously look at his extensive work or the influence he had on society or American politics or recognize his technical skills as a writer. He is the "father of American Literature" and probably even those other two giants, Henry and William James were influenced by him. Writing about Twain or commenting on Twain requires a lot of knowledge on literature and a great deal of background in history. His writing about his own adventures, such as The Innocents Abroad (1869), was also celebrated and marked by a distinctive writing style. That his travel writing and his fiction writing are similarly marked by his style shouldn’t be too surprising. A grip on dialogue and vernacular dialect, and an interest in a variety of different people that inform his fictional characters, helps to distinguish Mark Twain’s writing style. Mark Twain began writing light and humorous verse. As he developed his writing style, Mark Twain changed his subject matter as well. His main writings, such as the novel Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, feature humour, strong plots and social criticism. Mark Twain was an American writer and humorist who wrote famous novels including The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. These books were written in 1876 and 1884. Mark Twain’s real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but preferred to write under his pen name of Mark Twain. He was born on November 30, 1835 in the state of Missouri in the United States. He worked in various trades over his life, including printing and typesetting, riverboat piloting and mining, before earning acclaim for his writing and lectures. Download 61.87 Kb.
