[Orlova, Raissa]. [On Mark Twain]. [ID D29599]. Liu Haiming : Orlova discussed Twain in terms of literary tradition and artistic style. She saw Twain as 'the most important representative of critical realism in 19th-century American literature'. Twain's works 'had a democratic character' and displayed many kinds of artistic talent including 'relaxed humor, furious satire, beautiful lyricism, minute psychological analysis and keen-edges politics'. In analyzing Twain's continuation of American literary traditions, she pointed to extreme exaggeration and description of the fantastic as distinctive characteristics in the literature of the American West. Twain was able skillfully to extract their marrow, ornamenting them with his creative art, making them into great literature. The article was one of the more complete and finely analytical pieces about Twain available to Chinese readers at that time, and its influence was quite broad. |
