EDITORS COMMENTS
Mark Twain, born Samuel Langhorne Clemens on November 30, 1835, was a renowned American writer, humorist, and satirist of the 19th and early 20th centuries. This engraving, titled "Mark Twain (Samuel Clemens)" and created by M. Klinkicht in the late 19th century, showcases a mature Twain with a warm, inviting smile. The image, which is colored, adds an extra layer of depth and character to the portrait. Twain is most famous for his novels, "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" and "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," both published in 1876 and 1885, respectively. These groundbreaking works of fiction, set in the antebellum South, are considered classics of American literature and continue to captivate readers with their wit, humor, and satire. "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," in particular, is a seminal work in American literature, following the adventures of the eponymous Huck Finn and his companion, Jim, a runaway slave. The novel is notable for its colloquial language, irreverent humor, and its critique of societal norms and prejudices of the time. As a contemporary of the United States during its formative years, Twain's writing offers a unique and insightful perspective on American history and culture. His essays and speeches also reflect his keen observations and insights into the human condition, making him an enduring and influential figure in American literature.
