薩慕爾‧克萊門斯 (Samuel
L. Clemens) ，也就是馬克‧吐溫 (Mark
Twain) 的誕生
1835年11月30日
在「哈克歷險記」 (The
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn) 裡，一個叫做哈克‧芬恩 (Huck
Finn) 的逃家青少年和一個叫做吉姆的逃跑奴隸坐在木筏上沿著密西西比河往下遊走。因為這兩個人物，馬克‧吐溫從此奠定了美國最好的小說家之一的聲譽。
薩慕爾‧藍鴻恩‧克萊門斯以馬克‧吐溫的筆名享譽全世界。他於1835年11月30日出生在密蘇里的佛羅里達。吐溫最有名的小說是以他在密西西比河沿岸度過的少年時期為背景。「湯姆歷險記」 (The
Adventures of Tom Sawyer) 在1876年出版，而「哈克歷險記」則在1884年出版上市。這些書一直到今天都還被認為是經典之作。這些書不但是很好的故事書，裡頭還包括了受到白人肯定的具備堅忍特質的非裔美人角色。
In The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, a runaway teenager named Huck Finn went floating down the Mississippi River on a raft with an escaped slave named Jim, and with them, Mark Twain's reputation as one of the finest American novelists was confirmed.
Samuel Langhorne Clemens, known to the world by his pen name of Mark Twain, was born on November 30, 1835, in Florida, Missouri. Twain is best known for his novels set in his boyhood world on the Mississippi River. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, published in 1876, and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, published in 1884, are considered classics today. These books not only told a good story; they also included African Americans who were admired by whites for their strength of character.
