[Twain, Mark]. E huang du yu. Yan Tong yi. [ID D29420].
Li Xilao : In Yan Tong's long postscript in which Twain's real name Clemens Samuel Langhorn is revealed, Twin is praised as 'a great writer of the world today, famous for his wits and humor. If he moves his tongue, listeners will laugh ; if he picks up his pen, the whole world will read'. Yan admitted that he had never seen writings so eloquent, vivid, impassioned, cunning, stirring, and incisive since he began to study English. While extolling Twain's style in hyperbolic terms, Yan had his reservations and expressed his regret over Twain's mockery of the Russian Czar's human defects, thinking personal attack inappropriate as well as ineffective. Yan believed in the education of the people as a precondition for a gradual, not radical, social change from autocracy to democracy.
