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."

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."

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain) (1835-1910) Contributing Editor: Everett Emerson Classroom Issues and Strategies The question might be asked, "Why is it that Mark Twain's writings and personality are so appealing?" I share my affection for the author with my students. I note that Mark Twain's readers enjoy Huckleberry Finn more if they know some Shakespeare and something about the French Revolution. Both of these loomed large in the author's consciousness when he wrote his masterpiece. Mark Twain began his career as a humorist. In both Huckleberry Finn and all of his other better pieces, an important aspect of his work is the speaker's presentation of himself. What connection does this interest in the speaker or teller have to Mark Twain's humor? Students are interested but edgy when I raise the question of the word "nigger" in the book. They ought to know that the term was used not long ago by many blacks as well as unsympathetic whites. But the appearance of the word in the book, despite the historical accuracy of the use of the term, needs careful consideration. Major Themes, Historical Perspectives, and Personal Issues

Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History TWAIN, MARK , writer and lecturer. Under his pen name of Mark Twain, Samuel L. Clemens was an exceptionally popular author during his lifetime and is still regarded as one of America's best writers. Beginning as a journalist, he wrote travel books, an autobiography, and novels. The best of the latter, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884) were based chiefly on his childhood experiences in Hannibal, Missouri, and on the Mississippi River, where he was a riverboat pilot. (His pen name is derived from the Mississippi leadsman's call "Mark Twain," meaning two fathoms.) Mark Twain's first humorous pieces were written while he was living in California and Nevada. His enormous following was based on his humorous manner, which some people found crude and irreverent, and on his appealing personality. He reached a wide audience with The Innocents Abroad (1869), an account of his travels in the Mediterranean and the Holy Land, and subsequent lectures and readings. But soon, because he had married into a wealthy, genteel family, he felt obliged to write what would be acceptable to his wife's social class. The results include The Prince and the Pauper (1882), a historical novel, and

"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.
