Eight studies by ARTHUR MIZENER
Professor of English at Cornell University
3: The Noble Savage: Mark Twain
Twain seems to have thought for a long time that Huckleberry Finn. one of the world's great books. was just another boys' book. But behind the uproarious comedy is one of literature's great visions of what the world looks like in the light of man's dream of perfection, a dream that has haunted both American society and American literature.
