內容簡介

Fashioned from the same experiences that would inspire the masterpiece Huckleberry Finn, Life on the Mississippi is Mark Twain's most brilliant and most personal nonfiction work. It is at once an affectionate evocation of the vital river life in the steamboat era and a melancholy reminiscence of its passing after the Civil War, a priceless collection of humorous anecdotes and folktales, and a unique glimpse into Twain's life before he began to write. Written in a prose style that has been hailed as among the greatest in English literature, Life on the Mississippi established Twain as not only the most popular humorist of his time but also America's most profound chronicler of the human comedy.

作者簡介

Samuel Langhorne Clemens, or Mark Twain, as he was better known was born on November 30, 1835 in Florida, Missouri, the sixth child of John Marshall and Jane Lampton Clemens. His father ran a dry goods and grocery store, practiced law and involved himself in local politics after the family's move to Hannibal, Missouri, when Sam was four years old.

Hannibal seems to have been a good place for a boy to grow up. Sam was entranced by the Mississippi River and enjoyed both the barges and the people who traveled on them. When Sam was just eleven his father died and Sam went to work for his brother at the Hannibal Journal first as a printer's apprentice and later a compositor. While still in his teens Sam went on the road as an itinerant printer. In 1857 he conceived a plan to seek his fortune in South America but on the way he met a steamboat captain, Horace Bixby who took him on as a cub riverboat pilot and taught him until he acquired his own license.

This enjoyable style of life, which Twain always spoke of later with special warmth was ended by the Civil War. Twain went west with his brother Orion to prospect in Nevada but in 1862 joined the staff of the Virginia City Territorial Enterprise, a paper to which he had already begun submitting his work. Later Twain went to California and submitted "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County" to the New York Saturday Press.

By 1871 Twain had published Innocents Abroad and had married Olivia Langdon, the sister of a friend from a socially prominent New York City family. He and his wife moved to Hartford, Connecticut, where they made their family home for thenext 20 years.

Books that he wrote in Hartford confirmed his popular reputation but despite their success Twain found himself in financial difficulty primarily because of his investments in the Paige typesetting business as well as his own publishing company. Eventually Twain was forced to declare bankruptcy.

Twain's last major books were successful commercially but they also reflect his increasing pessimism. His satire becomes at times more biting and mean-spirited than it is humorous. Despite the downturn in Twain's outlook in later life and despite the unevenness of much of his work, he remains one of the major writers of the American nineteenth century, and one who has been enormously influential on subsequent writers.

性價比高，質量很不錯

還是原文好，書大小也閤適

評分☆☆☆☆☆

書後麵的價格還是4.95美元，結果京東居然隻賣3.7人民幣，簡直給跪。書很小，印的很密集，不過不影響閱讀，反倒這種小書看起來也很有感覺。

小小的，方便攜帶。書內字體的密集程度看個人感覺吧。。。

書很好看，值得一讀。

"馬剋.吐溫是美國文學中的林肯"——美國現實主義文學先驅威廉.豪威爾斯曾如此評價這位美國19世紀最負盛名的文學巨匠。其作品集批判現實主義、幽默諷刺與地方民俗特色之大成,開創瞭美國式小說的先河。馬剋.吐溫在密西西比河上的兩年水手生活經曆對其後的文學創作産生瞭極其重要的影響。《密西西比河上的生活》正是他這段經曆的記錄。這部小說完美展現瞭馬剋.吐溫對於地方俗語的獨到描寫,充分發揮瞭他對於地方特色的詮釋手法,更深刻體現瞭他在幽默中所蘊含的對醜惡人性的強烈諷刺。本文旨在分析小說中對於密西西比河沿岸各色人物生活的描寫,領略馬剋.吐溫式的諷刺、民俗描寫以及對人性的探討。
