A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court

Available : YES

In "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court," Mark Twain masterfully blends humor and social commentary through the fantastical tale of Hank Morgan, an ordinary man from 19th-century Connecticut. After a blow to the head, Hank finds himself inexplicably transported back to medieval England, where he encounters King Arthur and his chivalrous knights. Utilizing his knowledge of modern technology and American ideals, Hank attempts to reshape the superstitious and archaic society he finds himself in. His clever solutions to age-old problems challenge the romanticized notions of knighthood and royalty, exposing the absurdities of the past. As Hank navigates power struggles and the complexities of medieval life, Twain critiques the social inequalities and rigid traditions of both eras. This satirical adventure not only entertains but also provokes thought about progress, culture, and the nature of civilization itself.
