關於作者

Samuel Langhorne Clemens, known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an eminent American writer, humorist, entrepreneur, publisher, and lecturer. Born on November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri, he rose to become one of the most revered figures in American literature. Twain's sharp wit and incisive satire earned him praise from both critics and peers. One of his lesser-known works, 'Essays on Paul Bourget,' published in 1897, reflects Twain's astute perspectives on French novelist and critic Paul Bourget, giving readers insight into Twain's intellectual reflections on cultural criticism and human nature. Much of Twain's literature provides a critical, often humorous window into the society and mores of his time. His renowned novels include 'The Adventures of Tom Sawyer' (1876) and 'Adventures of Huckleberry Finn' (1885), the latter often lauded as 'The Great American Novel.' Twain's mastery of vernacular prose and his unfettering portrayal of American life during the tumultuous years of the late 19th century are hallmarks of his unique literary style. He was also a prominent speaker, traveling extensively, and commanding audiences with his engaging talks. Twain passed away on April 21, 1910, but his legacy endures, cementing his status as an iconic figure in world literature.
