Reflections of Realistic Life in Mark twain’s The Adventure of Tom Sawyer

Keywords : realistic aspects, realism, adventure, morality


Abstract

The Adventure of Tom Sawyer, the novel taken for analyzing the realistic aspects portrayed by twain, represents the memories of his childhood. The novel tells about two young boys who are interested in adventures and teaches the readers about the moralities and values at the time. The themes dealt with in novel are fundamental ones and often universal ideas explored in a literary work. This paper explains in general what realism is and how Mark Twain has introduced the aspects of realism in his novel. Special emphasize has been given to the language used in the novel, local colour, depiction of real situations and characters giving relevant examples from the next to support the arguments. The study is analytical and aims at driving home the point, that there is no necessity for a philosopher, teacher or a person of high station to teach morality and values and that even an everyday happening in life and an ordinary character cam make a great impact on the society.
