The Adventures of Tom Sawyer: A Norton Critical Edition (Norton Critical Editions)
- Used Book in Good Condition
The text of this Norton Critical Edition is based, with typesetting errors corrected, on the first U.S. edition (1876), the most authoritative of the editions published in Twainâ€™s lifetime.
â€œBackgrounds and Contextsâ€ provides students with the standard source materials often cited by criticsâ€•Twainâ€™s stories of Good and Bad Boys, his Boyâ€™s Manuscript, his correspondence with William Dean Howells, and his 1870 letter to Will Bowen. This section also includes lesser-known but valuable contextual materials, among them Twainâ€™s journalistic description of school exercise and the discussion of Perry Davisâ€™ Pain Killer and other nineteenth-century nostrums.

â€œCriticismâ€ includes interpretations by William Dean Howells, Hamlin L. Hill, Judith Fetterley, Alan Gribben, Glenn Hendler, Carter Revard, and Susan R. Gannon.

A Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included.
