Abstract:
Abstract This article examines how two novels, Phong Nguyen’s The Adventures of Joe Harper (2016) and Robert Coover’s Huck Out West (2017), revisit the controversial ending of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by imagining Tom Sawyer as an embodiment of the savagery of Manifest Destiny. It explores how these novels try to redeem the character of Huckleberry Finn by rejecting Tom and embracing reparative forms of storytelling like Native American and hobo oral narrative, both of which are pacifist and open-ended in comparison to the jingoistic, bombastic, and injurious nationalism of Manifest Destiny. Other topics covered include the cultural politics of the “minor character” novel, adaptation, moral injury, and the representation of race and identity in both novels.

Abstract:
In their close ties to a folkloric past, and in a conscientious effort to dialogue with a far-reaching literary inheritance, the Brazilian Ariano Suassuna (1927-2014) and the U.S.’s Mark Twain (1835-1910) present regional protagonists who negotiate roles as heroes of artifice. As they feed off models of the Trickster and pícaro, an analysis based on cognitive and psychosocial theory reveals a João Grilo and Huck Finn that model valued skills as socioeconomically marginalized figures on the outskirts of civilization. In Auto da Compadecida (1955) and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884), both Suassuna and Twain manage to highlight these skills by creating character duos that mimic the cognitive counterpointing between Miguel de Cervantes’ Don Quijote and Sancho Panza.

Abstract:
Mark Twain is one of the most prolific writers of literary dialect, and his works have long been studied not only for their content but also for the structure of the language found within. In this tradition, this article analyzes the speech of the character of Huck Finn in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. However, this article moves beyond traditional studies which focus on cataloguing dialect features or discussing the writer's dialect accuracy, and instead questions whether or not Twain was consistent in his use of literary dialect intertextually. Using the LinguaLinks program, a representative sample of Huck's speech from each text was examined for non-standard features and dialect spellings, and these forms were analyzed for consistency of use. This study reveals that while Twain is consistent in some of the dialect features analyzed, variation does in fact occur within his representation of Huck's speech.

Abstract:
The world of Tom Sawyer, both that of the character and of the novel which bears his name, is a world dominated by fences; the neat, straight palings that surround the Widow Dougla's property, the fence around the Teacher house over which the lovestick Tom gazes longingly after Becky, and all the other upright boundaries delineating St. Petersburg respectability. As the central icon of the novel, Aunt Polly's white-washed fence appropriately represents the care and maintenance of order to which the town is committed, an order upon which both Tom and his story depend. Although Twain first identifies St. Petersburg as a poor, shabby, frontier village, it is far from defenseless in its confrontations either with shabbiness or wilderness. Well ordered by its fences and undergirded, like Tom's story, by the central institutions of civil and cultural order — the court, the school, the church — it is a society where things have been assigned their proper places and where the primary function of the St. Petersburg elect is to tend those places. This is a world overseen by guardians and Sunday superintendents, schoolmastes, and judges, authorities who, if sometimes mistaken, or even slightly absurd, are essentially benign and nearly always reliable. Thus it is that the minister, praying for the community's children, does so in the context of a hierarchy of responsibility that from country officials to the President of the United States, an ordering presence that, among other reassuring work, is to guarantee the well-being of the young. As though to provide the fullest representation of this benevolent system, Missouri's most important senator, Thomas Hart Benton, makes a cameo appearance in the novel, albeit one in which he is judged of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer as a book about boyish freedom, it affirms at every turn an order of the most conventional sort and depends upon that order for the version of boyhood it depicts.

Abstract:
Abstract A round 1909, Mae West finally got a chance to return to the professional stage. Her break came when William Hogan, smalltime vaudevillian and friend of the family, invited her to join his act. He needed a partner to play his girlfriend in a Huckleberry Finn routine. It was not a particularly original or creative act; for years, vaudeville bits based on rural, Twain-like characters had been common. With it, Mae found herself in a position similar to her experience in stock companies, playing a Becky Thatcher-type character a white male fantasy of white femininity. Not surprisingly, the act soon underwent revision, and Huckleberry Finn was discarded in exchange for a Bowery skit. Another popular format, Bowery skits centered on the antics of a Bowery boy and his “tough girl” counterpart. Now Mae’s character would become a poor but spunky, assertive, and optimistic street-smart urbanite. In other words, this was no Becky Thatcher.

Abstract:
This chapter explores Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn, the most celebrated novel of the late nineteenth century, as the most completely realized example of the perspectival realism of the Reconstruction generation. Addressing Twain’s relationship with Howells and considering the way Twain’s absorption of the categories of the “sentimental fool” and the practices of mugwump aestheticism fed into his approach as a novelist, this chapter reads Huckleberry Finn as an allegory of the irreducible complexity of emancipation. This reading overturns traditional readings of the novel that celebrate Huck’s raft as a space of utopian freedom. It also offers an alternative to the dilemmas encountered by readers who have confronted the novel’s minstrelized depiction of the escaped slave Jim. What Twain called his “double-barreled” novel must be read for the way the possibilities of emancipation are hidden in plain sight, obscured by symbols of freedom such as the raft. Written in an age of renewed federalism even as it looks back at the antebellum world, Huckleberry Finn invites the reader to consider the possibility that the multiplicity of jurisdictions and overlapping, nonunified character of the U.S. legal system might represent a route toward emancipation in a world in which, absent a uniform law, no community could represent true justice.

Abstract:
Abstract People often become hyperstartlers as a result of being startled repetitively and frequently. The fact that this is so is an interactional resource, a bit of neurophysiology that can be exploited socially and culturally in a great number of ways. This chapter analyzes one use of this resource: the story of how and why Aunt Sally Phelps, a character in Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, was turned into a hyperstartler. Being fictional, the account is a cultural artifact-both in the usual sense of the word “cultural” (it is part of a work of literature), and also in the anthropological sense (shared symbolic, meaning-laden material).

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on Ofelia's role as the central protagonist in Pan's Labyrinth. It explains how Ofelia is the heroine of the film and how she does not narrate the story to the viewer via a voice-over, but through her eyes she leads the audience into the film. It also analyses Guillermo del Toro's reasons for picking a female child for the central character within his film and mentions the great tradition of stories about the quests of children, such as Charles Dickens's Great Expectations and Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn. The chapter examines the weight of the oppressive ideology that surrounds Ofelia and the extremity of her loss. It highlights what sets Ofelia apart from those cinematic or literary children who have a future.
