Used by permission of the publisher. Mark Twain, 1835-1910 Clemens, Samuel Langhorne ("Mark Twain") (1835-1910) Writer. Although Samuel Clemens initially tasted fame and employed his pen name in Nevada and California, he traced his "Mark Twain" pseudonym to his pilot days on the Mississippi River, and many features of his writings can also be attributed to that southern background. Clemens was born 30 November 1835 in the border state of Missouri and grew up in Hannibal, but his father was a Virginian and his mother was from a Kentucky family. Sam Clemens became a printer, working in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, and Missouri before becoming a steamboat pilot. As a pilot posted at the river ports of St. Louis and New Orleans from 1857 until 1861, Clemens glided regularly through the Deep South sugarcane fields of Louisiana and Mississippi. A Connecticut Yankee (1889) "the whole ambivalent love-hate relationship of Sam Clemens with the South is dramatized" to indicate "the South's similarity to feudal England."

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain) Author Better known by his pen name, Mark Twain, satirist Samuel Langhorne Clemens spent much of his youth in Hannibal, Missouri, the Mississippi River town that was to inspire such successes as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Born in western Pennsylvania, John White Alexander moved to New York City in 1875 to work as an illustrator for Harper's Weekly. After further artistic training at Munich's Royal Academy, he returned to New York in 1881, where he taught, worked as an illustrator, and made a name for himself as a portraitist. In 1891 he moved his family to Paris, where he may have first met Clemens, for it is known that he undertook a portrait of the writer's daughter in this city sometime between 1898 and 1900. The precise circumstances of Clemens's sittings are not known, but Alexander did remain in contact with the author after he returned to New York in 1902, for he was invited to the writer's seventieth birthday party in 1905.

29. Mark (Samuel Langhorne Clemens) Twain (1835-1910) Quotes You take the lies out of him, and he ll shrink to the size of your hat; you takethe malice out of him, and he ll disappear. http://www.phnet.fi/public/mamaa1/twain.htm

Mark Twain Quotes Always tell the truth; then you don't have to remember anything. When in doubt, tell the truth. Truth is more of a stranger than fiction. Why shouldn't truth be stranger than fiction? Fiction after all, has to make sense. A good lie will have travled half way around the world while the truth is putting on her boots. There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics. You take the lies out of him, and he'll shrink to the size of your hat; you take the malice out of him, and he'll disappear. I was gratified to be able to answer promptly, and I did. I said I didn't know. Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, ... it doesn't matter. A powerful agent is the right word. Whenever we come upon one of those intensely right words in a book or a newspaper the resulting effect is physical as well as spiritual, and electrically prompt. The right word may be effective, but no word was ever as effective as a rightly timed pause. Thunder is good, thunder is impressive, but it is lightning that does the work. When one has tasted watermelon he knows what the angels eat.

PAID ADVERTISEMENTS Library Modern Documents John Patrick Michael Murphy : Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1999) Murphy's Law: SAMUEL LANGHORNE CLEMENS (1999) by John Patrick Michael Murphy Mark Twain (1835-1910) was a freethinker who brooked many hard blows in his roisterous life. He left school at 14 when his father died. He lost three of his four children, and, after three decades of marriage, he lost his wife, Olivia. In addition to this heart scalding, he incurred great financial setbacks. His impulsive nature, coupled with his proclivity to seek out investments with a clear heart and an empty head, would cost him many fortunes. He had to be a prolific, world-class writer and lecturer to live the whimsical life he fancied. No book influenced him more than the Bible . He claimed, "It ain't those parts of the Bible that I can't understand that bother me, it is the parts that I do understand." He found it revolting, but his skepticism is revealed only in snatches and bits in his benchmark books. A line from Huckleberry Finn or Tom Sawyer , or some puckish insight in Pudd'nhead Wilson's New Calendar Faith is believing what you know ain't so ), would hint at Twain's disbelief. He had to be coy and cautious, for in his day the YMCA and its Comstockian cops were on the prowl.

Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Mark Twain (1835-1910) - pseudonym of Samuel Langhorne Clemens American writer, journalist, and 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) Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain) was born in Florida, Missouri, of a Virginian family. The family soon moved to Hannibal, Missouri, where Twain was brought up. At school, accroding to his own words, he "excelled only in spelling". After his father's death in 1847, Twain was apprenticed to a printer. Her also started his career as a journalist by writing for the Hannibal Journal . Later Twain worked as a licensed Mississippi river-boat pilot (1857-61). His famous penname Twain adopted from the call ('Mark twain!' - meaning by the mark of two fathoms) used when sounding river shallows. But this isn't the full story: he had also satirized an older writer, Isaiah Sellers, who called himself Mark Twain. In 1861 Twain served briefly as a confederate irregular. The Civil War put an end to the steamboat traffic, and during a period when Twain was out of work, he lived in a primitive cabin on Jackass Hill and tried his luck as a gold-miner. "I would have been more or less than human if I had not gone mad like the rest," he confessed.
