Criticism about Mark Twain
- Romancing the Indian: Sentimentalizing and Demonizing in Cooper and Twain
- http://xroads.virginia.edu/~HYPER/HNS/Indians/main.html
- “Representations of American Indians in nineteenth-century American literature were seldom culturally relative. Instead, the author often encoded in the American Indian caricature (“caricature” because these are rarely well-developed characters) his or her assumptions based on racial stereotypes, making the caricature a metonym for all AmericanIndians.”
- Contains: Criticism, Commentary
- Author: Rissetto, Adriana
- Keywords: Mark Twain, James Fenimore Cooper, Indians, Native Americans
