Mark Twain in German-Language Newspapers and Periodicals

References to Mark Twain's Writing and Speeches


The German-language newspaper articles that are collected in the main catalog feature references to and discussions and translations of a variety of Mark Twain's texts and speeches. The table below collects all of these referenced titles.
Explanations:
  •  The title section contains links to separate pages with more information on individual works by Mark Twain. When a specific work does not have an established title (mostly in the case of letters and speeches), a short description is given instead.
  • The abbreviations correspond to the main catalog's "reference" section and serve as unique identifiers for each of Mark Twains texts and speeches. Abbreviations for letters always start with L: and those for speeches always with S:
  • Entries are sorted alphabetically according to the abbreviation column and additionally according to the categories: longer written texts, letters, speeches.
  • Entries with a darker color background are texts or speeches for which full or partial German translations can be found in the newspaper material collected in the main catalog.
  • The search bar searches both the abbreviation and title columns at the same time. Typing a single asterisk (*) retrieves all entries to texts and speeches for which full or partial German translations can be found in the newspaper material collected in the main catalog.
