Sydney J. Krause
Mark Twain as Critic
xi 308 pages with index. Royal octavo 9 1/4" x 6 1/4" bound in original publisher's brown-red cloth with black lettering to spine and pictorial to cover. First edition. Sydney Krause analyzes the full range of Twain's criticism much of which has lain neglected in notebooks letters marginalia and autobiographical dictations. He demonstrates that in addition to being an acute critic given to close reading Twain thought enough of his criticism to present much of it in an enveloping literary form. In his early criticism Twain used the mask of an ignorant fool or Muggins while in his later criticism he used the mask of a world-weary malcontent or Grumbler. The resulting cross-fire from extremes of innocence and experience proved effective against a wide rage of literary targets. The Muggins dealt mainly with the theater journalism oratory and popular poetry the Grumbler with such writers as Goldsmith Cooper Scott and Harte. Condition: Previous owner's name on front end paper. Jacket price clipped spine ends and corners chipped with 1/4" loss to spine head else a very good copy in like jacket.
