Produktbeskrivning
Part of the Contested Classics Series, this distinctive edition of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain reinvigorates the timeless classic with a contemporary lens. First published in 1876, Twain''s novel captures the youthful adventures and mischiefs of Tom Sawyer, a young boy growing up along the Mississippi River.
This edition not only brings to life the charm and humor of Twain''s writing but also thoughtfully addresses the reasons behind the book''s contested status in modern times.
Our editors identify the text that has been challenged and dives deep with annotations on the main reasons for banning The Adventures of Tom Sawyer:
- Racial Stereotypes and Language: Twain''s portrayal of race and use of racially charged language, particularly in the depiction of the character Jim, has been a significant point of contention, prompting debates about racial sensitivity and historical context.
- Mischief and Rebellion: Tom Sawyer''s antics and rebellious nature, often seen as promoting bad behavior or disrespect for authority, have been reasons for the book''s challenge, especially in school settings.
- Societal Critique: The novel''s critique of adult hypocrisy and societal norms, while lauded for its honesty, has also been viewed as problematic for younger readers.
- Portrayal of Violence and Criminal Activities: Scenes depicting violence and criminal activities, such as grave robbing and murder, have led to concerns about the book''s appropriateness for a young audience.
This edition of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is not just a return to the cherished adventures of a young boy but an invitation to understand and discuss the complexities and challenges that have followed the novel into the 21st century.
It is an essential read for those who wish to explore how a beloved classic holds up under the scrutiny of contemporary values and debates.
