Abstract | Looks at the use of the term "nigger" in "Huckleberry Finn" as central to the text. Regards the novel as a kind of meditation on the word "nigger" and as an attempt by Twain to explore the construction and maintenance of racial identity. Examines the present historical and pedagogical moment as part of the reception history of the novel. (TB) |
