Abstract

This chapter offers a reading of Mark Twain's novel Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. It explains that the character of Huck is tainted by the deformed conscience throughout the book, though not as continuously as Tom, who exemplifies it. It describes a reading of Twain as anthropological rather than moral, political, or social and suggests that there is better reason for reading the novel as pastoral.
