  • Our Famous Guest: Mark Twain in Vienna

    Howard G Baetzhold, Carl DolmetschARTICLEAmerican Literature1994

    Fin-de-siecle Vienna was a special place at a special time, a city in which the decadent abandon of the era commingled with dark forebodings of the coming century. artistic and intellectual ferment of the Austrian capital was extraordinary and included Sigmund Freud, Gustav Mahler, Arthur Schnitzler, Theodor Herzl, Gustav Klimt and Ludwig Wittgenstein - but a few of figures who lived and worked there. And, in September 1897, into the very midst o…

  • The Mythologizing of Mark Twain

    Howard G Baetzhold, Sara deSaussure Davis et al.ARTICLESouth Atlantic Review1986

    Readers of Mark Twain seldom doubt his genius, but defining that genius and locating its source continue to challenge students of American literature.Equally elusive is an explanation of the intriguing phenomenon of Twain as a mythic figure, both shaper and embodier of an American mythos.Perhaps no single critical approach can adequately assess the complex force behind Samuel Clemens and Mark Twain.This native genius, our quintessential artist, r…

  • Found: "Mark Twain's "Lost Sweetheart

    Howard G BaetzholdARTICLEAmerican Literature1972

    B IOGRAPHERS GENERALLY AGREE that Samuel L Clemens and Olivia ULangdon enjoyed one of the happiest marriages in the annals of literary history. But Samuel Clemens led a double life. I do not here refer to that frequent subject of analysis, the Mr. ClemensMark Twain dichotomy, but rather to the humorist's lifelong devotion to a lost sweetheart of his youth. Brief though the actual romance was, recurrent dreams apparently refreshed his memory of th…

    Howard G BaetzholdARTICLEAmerican Literature1961Cited by: 1

    S INCE JOHN B. HOBEN'S SKILFULLY REASONED STUDY of the genesis of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court in 1946,' it has generally been accepted that Mark Twain, after completing only three chapters, pigeonholed his manuscript between November, i886 and sometime during the summer of i888. Reasoning from that time scheme and from pertinent documents, Hoben argued that the book's metamorphosis from the mere humorous contrast of ancient and mo…

  • Mark Twain: England's Advocate

    Howard G BaetzholdARTICLEAmerican Literature1956

    flf3O THOSE accustomed to view Mark Twain's attitudes toward ll England largely in the light of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889), it may be something of a surprise that, for a time, Twain so favored the English form of government that he advocated the introduction of certain of its features into the government of the United States. An examination of his sojourns in England in 1872 and I873-I874 and of the period immediately foll…
