Download or read book The Prince and The Pauper Illustrated Annotated written by Mark Twain and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-08 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mark Twain's first attempt at historical fiction, "The Prince and the Pauper", was first distributed in 1881. It is a story set in the hour of Prince Edward, of house Tudor, who at age nine would become King Edward VI. At the point when youthful Prince Edward meets a Pauper, Tom Canty, who prefers a ton like him, he persuades the two to switch garments with the goal that they can be confused with one another and wind up exchanging places. While they assume out their new jobs, Prince Edward learns of the battles of the everyday citizens of England while Tom finds what it resembles to be a Prince and afterward a King. Twain composed with respect to his novel that, "My idea is to afford a realizing sense of the exceeding severity of the laws of that day by inflicting some of their penalties upon the King himself and allowing him a chance to see the rest of them applied to others. . ." A magnificently comedic story, "The Prince and the Pauper" is at its heart a social critique on passing judgment on others basically by their appearance.

Foremost is the basic idea of the exchange of roles and lines between the prince and the pauper and the constant reference to their twin fates. Prior to meeting each other, both boys have dreams of living the life of the other. Both are, in a sense, innocents who learn a great deal about life as a result of their exchanging clothes and roles. Likewise, the dreams of each are shattered as a result of the exchange. Ironically, both live at first in an extremely restricted society. Like Huck Finn, who did not want to be "sivilized" and who rejected the confinements of society, Tom Canty has no freedom and is constantly beaten and restricted in his home environment. Likewise, the young prince is confined to his royal apartments and has little or no freedom -- that is, he does not have the freedom that he believes a commoner has. The freedom that both young lads desire exists only in their dreams. Of Tom, Twain writes: "His old dreams had been so pleasant, but this reality was so dreary."
