Аннотация
In dem Roman gehen ein unbeschulter, individualistischer «weißer» Außenseiter und ein rechtloser «schwarzer» Sklave zusammen erfolgreich ihren widrigen Weg den Mississippi stromab. Der Roman gilt in der landläufigen Amerikanistik als eine der klassischen Verkörperungen des amerikanischen Traumes; dem Streben nach Glück, wie es in der Amerikanischen Unabhängigkeitserklärung proklamiert wurde. Er kann dadurch, dass Twain darin ganz selbstverständlich beide gemeinsam diesem «Glück» (in Form eines zumindest menschenwürdigeren Lebens) «entgegen streben» lässt, vor allem als eine eindeutige politische Stellungnahme gegen den Rassismus angesehen werden, der «Schwarze» zu der beschriebenen Zeit und noch lange danach von diesem – nur theoretisch für «alle» proklamierten – Recht ausschloss.

Аннотация
HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics.‘When I am king, they shall not have bread and shelter only, but also teachings out of books; for a full belly is little worth where the mind is starved, and the heart.’Set in 16th-Century England and following the lives of two young boys, The Prince and the Pauper is a classic and timeless tale. Tom Canty, the lowly pauper is almost identical in appearance to Edward Tudor, a prince. Unbeknownst to those around them, the boys strike up an unlikely friendship and soon realise that with their similar looks they could easily pass for one another.When the Prince’s father dies, some of the more underhand court officials persuade the pauper to act as the Prince in order to reap the benefits of the ‘mistake’ and there follows a tale of friendship and growing up in one of Mark Twain’s most infamous works.
