Description
Close readings of Twain?s major works, emphasizing the development of his career. I am particularly interested in the interplay of humor and bitterness in Twain?s social and political thought, but class discussion will be open for any aspect of Twain?s writing that the students wish to bring up. Regular attendance and participation, along with two ten-page essays, will be required.
