Description: You are considering a hardback book, with a DJ, A CONNECTICUT YANKEE IN KING ARTHUR'S COURT by Mark Twain; PUBLISHER: University of California Press, Berkeley, CA; 1979 printing; 827 pages. $32.50 pricing on DJ flap. For the IOWA CENTER for TEXTUAL STUDIES, approved by the MODERN LANGUAGE ASSOC of AMERICA This novel tells the story of Hank Morgan, the quintessential self-reliant New Englander who brings to King Arthurs Age of Chivalry the great and beneficent miracles of nineteenth-century engineering and American ingenuity. Through the collision of past and present, Twain exposes the insubstantiality of both utopias, destroying the myth of the romantic ideal as well as his own eras faith in scientific and social progress. A central document in American intellectual history, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthurs Court is at once a hilarious comedy of anachronisms and incongruities, a romantic fantasy, a utopian vision, and a savage, anarchic social satire that only one of Americas greatest writers could pen.
