    Extractions: Mark Twain Shadowed by domestic tragedy and the looming threat of bankruptcy, the ebullient humorist Mark Twain emerged as a dark satirist in the mid-1890's. Twain spoke briefly of "the damned human race." His close friend William Dean Howells wrote that this was a period in his life when the "night was blackest." The Man that Corrupted Hadleyburg is a morality tale of somber dimensions. It has been called Twain's greatest short story. According to Van Wyck Brooks, "Not till then ... did he ever again openly and on a large scale attack the spiritual integrity of industrial America." After his death, Howells wrote that Twain "was sole, incomparable, the Lincoln of our literature." Books from 1900 Special Collections Main Page

Clemens was born on November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri. When he was four years old, his family moved to Hannibal, Missouri, a Mississippi river port, where he received a public school education.

36. Mark_Twain
    An American writer, journalist and humorist, who won a worldwide audience for his stories of the youthful adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.  
    http://www.narod-sobe.cz/clovek/kultura/literatura/Autori_US/Twain_Mark/index.ht
    
    Extractions: An American writer, journalist and humorist, who won a worldwide audience for his stories of the youthful adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. Clemens was born on November 30, 1835 in Florida, Missouri, of a Virginian family. He was brought up in Hannibal, Missouri. After his father's death in 1847, he was apprenticed to a printer and wrote for his brother's newspaper. He later worked as a licensed Mississippi river-boat pilot. The Civil War put an end to the steamboat traffic and Clemens moved to Virginia City, where he edited the Territorial Enterprise. On February 3, 1863, 'Mark Twain' was born when Clemens signed a humorous travel account with that pseudonym. In 1864 Twain left for California, and worked in San Francisco as a reporter. He visited Hawaii as a correspondent for The Sacramento Union, publishing letters on his trip and giving lectures. He set out on a world tour, traveling in France and Italy. His experiences were recorded in 1869 in The Innocents Abroad, which gained him wide popularity, and poked fun at both American and European prejudices and manners. The success as a writer gave Twain enough financial security to marry Olivia Langdon in 1870. They moved next year to Hartford. Twain continued to lecture in the United States and England. Between 1876 and 1884 he published several masterpieces, Tom Sawyer (1881) and The Prince And The Pauper (1881). Life On The Mississippi appeared in 1883 and Huckleberry Finn in 1884.

38. Italian Without A Master ( Read Online ) Mark Twain
    Italian without a Master By Mark Twain. It is almost a fortnight now that I am domiciled in a medieval villa in the country, a mile or two from Florence.  
    http://book.joyurl.com/en/4/twain_mark/n034.html
    
    Extractions: By Mark Twain Yesterday's word was AVANTI. It sounds Shakespearian, and probably means Avaunt and quit my sight. Today I have a whole phrase: SONO DISPIACENTISSIMO. I do not know what it means, but it seems to fit in everywhere and give satisfaction. Although as a rule my words and phrases are good for one day and train only, I have several that stay by me all the time, for some unknown reason, and these come very handy when I get into a long conversation and need things to fire up with in monotonous stretches. One of the best ones is DOV' `E IL GATTO. It nearly always produces a pleasant surprise, therefore I save it up for places where I want to express applause or admiration. The fourth word has a French sound, and I think the phrase means "that takes the cake." During my first week in the deep and dreamy stillness of this woodsy and flowery place I was without news of the outside world, and was well content without it. It has been four weeks since I had seen a newspaper, and this lack seemed to give life a new charm and grace, and to saturate it with a feeling verging upon actual delight. Then came a change that was to be expected: the appetite for news began to rise again, after this invigorating rest. I had to feed it, but I was not willing to let it make me its helpless slave again; I determined to put it on a diet, and a strict and limited one. So I examined an Italian paper, with the idea of feeding it on that, and on that exclusively. On that exclusively, and without help of a dictionary. In this way I should surely be well protected against overloading and indigestion.
