Mark Twain`s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: The Original Text Edition, Gribben Alan
Автор: Gribben Alan Название: Mark Twain`s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: The Newsouth Edition ISBN: 1603062351 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781603062350 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 12830.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In a radical departure from standard editions, Mark Twain's most famous novel is published here with one disturbing racial label translated as "slave." In seeking to record accurately the speech of uneducated boys and adults along the Mississippi River in the 1840s, Twain casually included an epithet that is diminishing the potential audience for his masterpiece. While dozens of other editions preserve the inflammatory slur that the author employed for the sake of realism, the NewSouth Edition proves that the main point of Twain's masterpiece--the immense harm deriving from inhumane social conformity--comes through just as vibrantly without obliging readers to confront hundreds of insulting racial pejoratives. The editor's Introduction supplies the historical and literary context for Twain's groundbreaking book, along with a helpful guide to his satirical targets.

Автор: Gribben Alan Название: Mark Twain`s Adventures of Tom Sawyer: The Newsouth Edition ISBN: 1603062335 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781603062336 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 12830.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In a radical departure from standard editions, the coming-of-age story that introduces Mark Twain's two most enduring literary characters-Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn-is published here with its disturbing racial labels translated as "slave" and "Indian." Everything else is completely intact in a novel that Twain termed a "hymn to boyhood." Tom and Huck fish and swim in the Mississippi River, search for buried treasure, and hide in a haunted house. Around the edges of this idyllic boy-life, however, loom dangerous events in the fictional village of St. Petersburg: Tom and Huck witness a midnight murder in a graveyard, the killer escapes from the courtroom while Tom is testifying, and two sinister villains plot robbery and revenge against a wealthy widow. Readers can follow the boys' adventures without confronting the dozens of racial slurs that are available in other editions of the book. The editor supplies a historical and literary introduction as well as a guide to Twain's satirical targets.
