A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court: ORIGINAL + UNGEKÜRZT

Autor Mark Twain Stuart Langton
en Limba Engleză Digital – 31 mar 2009
Hank Morgan, ein waschechter Yankee, wird durch einen Schlag auf den Kopf an den Hof von König Artus zurückversetzt, wo er mit seinen profunden naturwissenschaftlichen Kenntnissen mächtig Eindruck macht. Seinen Konkurrenten Merlin kann er als Zauberer schnell ausstechen. Doch nur allzu bald wandelt sich der Modernisierer zum brutalen Ausbeuter. Mark Twains Gegenüberstellung von Frühkapitalismus und Frühmittelalter ist eine grandiose Gesellschaftssatire und sein neben "Tom Sawyer" und "Huckleberry Finn" bekanntestes Werk. Die Hörbuchreihe ORIGINAL + UNGEKÜRZT präsentiert Klassiker und Meisterwerke der Weltliteratur, und zwar in der englischen Originalfassung, an die selbst gute Übersetzungen nicht heranreichen können. Hervorragende, teils mehrfach ausgezeichnete Sprecher lassen Stil und Atmosphäre der Originale lebendig werden. Ausnahmslos werden die Werke in voller Länge gelesen: Es gibt keine Kürzungen und Verfälschungen, wie man sie gerade bei Klassikern häufig findet. Wo möglich, folgen die Lesungen dem Text wissenschaftlicher Editionen. Dank des mp3-Formats passen die bis zu 15-stündigen Lesungen auf nur eine CD. Als Bonus gibt es den kompletten Originaltext als PDF-Datei. Verweise auf die Audiotracks in der PDF-Fassung ermöglichen bequemes Mit- oder Nachlesen, und die Einteilung der Lesung in kurze Tracks von 5 Minuten erlaubt schnelles Navigieren.Stuart Langton ist Film- und Theaterschauspieler und Sprecher zahlreicher Hörbücher.

Notă biografică

Mark Twain was born in Florida, Missouri on November 30,1835 and raised in Hannibal, Missouri, a small town on the Mississippi River. But that's not exactly true. For Mark Twain's legal name was Samuel Clemens, and he was always just plain Sam to family and friends. Mark Twain didn't exist until 1863 when Sam adopted this pen-name while working as a newspaper reporter in Nevada. Soon Mark Twain, author, was writing humorous stories and thought-pieces for readers across the nation. Meanwhile, Mark Twain, lecturer, was cracking-up audiences with finely-polished stories, delivered to perfection. Blessed with remarkable talent for both written and oral story-telling, talents he cultivated with diligent practice, Mark Twain became a famous author and lecturer almost all at once. It didn't take long before Mark Twain's fame spread internationally nor before it became permanent as gold with the publication of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn in 1884. Mark Twain spoke and wrote in a quaint, authentic American dialect with pride and self-assurance at a time when almost all authors thought they needed to stick with high-tone English to earn respect and acclaim. Yet there was something even more crucial to Mark Twain's fame than his innovative literary style; he perfected a method to make people laugh. A serious man at heart, Mark Twain took serious subjects and situations and exaggerated them to a point where potential drama turned into hilarious comedy. His perfection of this comic method caused tears of laughter to wet the cheeks of countless listeners and readers in his day, as it has for generations of readers ever since. Mark Twain became and remains an international treasure mostly because he was so darn funny. After a long and abundant career, Mark Twain succumbed to heart disease and died in Redding, Connecticut on April 21, 1910. Many millions of fans world-wide mourned his death.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
When A Connecticut Yankee at King Arthur's Court was published in 1889, Mark Twain was undergoing a series of personal and professional crises. Thus what began as a literary burlesque of British chivalry and culture grew into a disturbing satire of modern technology and social thought. The story of Hank Morgan, a nineteenth-century American who is accidentally returned to sixth-century England, is a powerful analysis of such issues as monarchy versus democracy and free will versus determinism, but it is also one of Twain's finest comic novels, still fresh and funny after more than 100 years. In his introduction, M. Thomas Inge shows how A Connecticut Yankee develops from comedy to tragedy and so into a novel that remains a major literary and cultural text for new generations of readers. This edition reproduces a number of the original drawings by Dan Beard, of whom Twain said `he not only illustrates the text but he illustrates my thoughts'. ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.
