Mark Twain (1835165438+1October 30th-1April 2nd1), formerly known as Samuel Langhorn Clemens (Sagittarius Mark Twain's first masterpiece, The Famous Frog in Cartown, was first published in new york Saturday on June 1865+0 18 10/8. The only reason why this work was published there was that it was finished too late and was not included in Artes Ward's collection of American Western Works. Later, the Sacramento Federal newspaper sent Mark Twain to Hawaii, then known as the Sandwich Islands, as a reporter and wrote to the Federal newspaper to tell about things there. Later, when he worked for the California Land Newspaper in San Francisco, he also wrote according to these humorous letters, because the California Land Newspaper sent him from San Francisco to new york City as a roving reporter via the Panama Canal. At that time, he kept writing to the newspaper and publishing, satirizing and humorously recording what he saw and heard. 1On June 8, 867, Twain went to Philadelphia by yacht and stayed for five months. This trip led to the birth of a fool's trip. 1872, Twain published his second travel literature, Hard Times, as a sequel to Fool's Travel. Hard Times is a semi-autobiographical novel, which describes Mark Twain's trip to Nevada and his later life in the American West. This book satirizes American and western society by criticizing "fools" in many countries in Europe and the Middle East. Twain's next work, Hard Times, focuses on American society. The later Gilded Age is not a travel literature, because the first two books are travel literature, and this is his first time to write a novel. This book is also famous because it is the only book written by Twain in cooperation with others. This book was written by Twain and his neighbor Charles Dudley Werner. Twain's two later books are all about his experiences on the Mississippi River. 1875 Atlantic Monthly published a series of sketches of the old Mississippi River. The most striking feature is Twain's awakening to romanticism. Life on the Mississippi River after Twain wrote Old Times. Then Twain wrote The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, describing his childhood in Hannibal. Twain shaped tom sawyer's character by imitating his childhood character. This book also has a supporting role, Huckleberry Finn. Although the story of the prince and the poor child often appears in many movies and literary works today, it is not generally accepted. This is Twain's first attempt to write The Beggar. Its disadvantage is that Twain didn't have enough British social experience. While writing The Prince and the Beggar, Twain also began to write The Wandering of Naughty Boys, and also completed another travel book, Wandering Abroad, which is Mark Twain's travel notes of Central and Southern Europe. Twain's later work is The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, which makes him a more famous and great American writer. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is the sequel of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, and the serious atmosphere is stronger than the latter. This book has become a compulsory book for most schools in the United States, because Huck gave up obeying the rules, and many people in this era think so (Huck's story is set in the 1850 s of slavery). /kloc-in the summer of 0/876, after it was released in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Twain wrote about 400 pages of The Wandering Story of an urchin. Twain's wife died in 1904, after which he was able to publish books that his wife didn't like as a critic and editor. One of the books is The Mysterious Stranger, which was not published in Twain's lifetime, so people found three versions of the manuscript between 1897 and 1905. These three versions made the publication of this book very confusing, and now there is the first version written by Twain. Twain's last work is his oral autobiography. Some archivists and editors rearranged autobiographies to make them more in line with the common format, so some humorous words of Twain were deleted.

Music, painting and language skills, knowledge of ancient Greece and Latin. He is knowledgeable in philosophy, literature and natural science. Influenced by the evolution theory, a major scientific discovery at that time, he became a religious skeptic. He wrote poetry at the age of 25, and 1866 began to write novels. The first novel, The Poor Man and the Lady, was not published. Later, he created a plot novel "Counting Helpless" with love, conspiracy, murder and detection as the content, which was positively evaluated after publication. 1874 Married Emma Lavaine. With Emma's encouragement, he created a pair of blue eyes under the green trees, away from the hubbub. Away from the hubbub has achieved great success with its fresh and natural style and vivid characters. From then on, he gave up the construction industry and embarked on the road of professional creation. In the nearly 30 years from 1869 to the end of 19, * * wrote 14 novels and nearly 50 short stories. After writing the novel, he collected his early poems into a book and continued to write poems and plays until his death.
create
Hardy's novels are set in the southwest of England where he grew up and lived, and are full of strong local colors. He roughly divided these novels into three categories: character environment novels, romantic fantasy novels and structural novels. Among them, the first category is the most important. Novels in this category include Under the Trees, Away from the Crowd, The Return of the Native, The Mayor of Casterbridge, Ren Linju, Tess of the D 'Urbervilles and Jude the Obscure. Generally speaking, they are Hardy's most mature works in thought and art, among which the tragic stories Tess of the D 'Urbervilles and Jude the Obscure are the most outstanding. The former is about Tess, a poor and beautiful milkmaid, who lost her virginity to a rich family and a villain Alec D 'Urberville and suffered both mentally and materially. Finally, she lost her true love, was angry and desperate, killed Alec and went to the gallows. The latter novel is about Jude Fan Li, a poor and kind orphan who wants to go to colleges and universities for further study, but he can't start. He and like-minded cousin Shu Bradeher both got rid of their legal spouses and freely combined, but they were rejected by the society and lived on the streets, and finally their families were ruined. These works showed the advanced ideas of the times and posed a severe challenge to the old customs and institutions of the Victorian era, which was criticized at that time. Most of his novels about personality and environment describe the struggle, pursuit and disillusionment of the hero and heroine all their lives, reflecting people's pursuit of a better life and ideals, and the fierce conflict between people and the environment (including people) in this process, so they are rich in extensive and profound social significance and philosophy. Novels belong to the romantic fantasy category, including A Pair of Blue Eyes, The Trumpeter, The Lover in the Tower, Mr Right, etc., and focus on depicting the life picture with romantic love as the main content. Skillful novels include Out of Helplessness, Marriage of Estella, Cold Woman, etc. In this kind of works, Hardy deliberately experimented with the structural skills of novels, from which we can see Hardy's various explorations and attempts in the process of novel creation, as well as his connection with naturalism and neo-romanticism popular at that time. The ideological themes of the latter two kinds of works are often associated with characters and environmental novels, which are idealistic, and there are also many fascinating and thought-provoking masterpieces. His short stories satirize human life, explore psychological activities, or describe romantic legends. Among them, Three Weird Strangers has entered the world's excellent short stories. Hardy's novels are changeable in style, wide in subject matter and rich in content. Because of his outstanding achievements in novel creation, he became a representative writer of England in the late19th century. As a poet, Hardy also has a good reputation. From 1898 to 1928, he published eight short poems, including Wessex Poetry, Song of the Past and the Present, Laughter of Time, Irony of Environment, Moment of Illusion, Lyrics in the Middle and Late Period, and All Aspects of Human Nature. He also wrote two poetic dramas The King and the famous tragedy The Queen of Cornwall. Hardy's poems are cold, profound, exquisite, beautiful, concise and unique, which are more modern than his novels. The poetic drama Kings is a masterpiece of Hardy's thought and art, which takes the Napoleonic Wars as its theme, covers various war-related regions and places in Europe, and has hundreds of characters. It belongs to a desk drama that is not used for performance, with magnificent momentum and beautiful language. It uses three stylistic forms: blank poetry, rhyming poetry and prose. With the help of various important links in the war process, Hardy further expounded his thoughts expressed in novels and short poems. This poetic drama is the deepening and summary of the author's literary creation in the past 60 years.
affect
Hardy's outstanding achievements in poetry and novel creation in his later years won him great honor. After his death, he was buried in the Poet's Corner in Westminster, London, and his heart was buried in the cemetery of his hometown of Stingsford Church according to my wishes. His biography, some literary papers, literary notes and letters have been published one after another. He has considerable influence in Britain and other countries in the world. China began to introduce and translate Hardy's poems and novels in the 1920s and 1930s, and he has become one of the English writers familiar to readers in China.
