A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court
Title: | A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court |
Author: | Mark Twain |
Year First Published: | 2010 |
Page Count: | 180 |
Synopsis: | The novel explains the tale of Hank Morgan, a 19th-century resident of Hartford, Connecticut who awakens to find himself inexplicably transported back in time to early medieval Britain at the time of the legendary King Arthur. While the book pokes fun at Twain's contemporary society, the main thrust is a satire of romanticized ideas of chivalry, and of the idealization of the Middle Ages. |
