  Unpremeditated ease and the vivacity of the spoken word in the works of Mark Twain (2 глава диплома)
  Bernard De Voto discusses Twain’s form, and suggests that it is based on the oral anecdote: “His imagination was rich and vivid, but incapable of prolonged creation.
  He could not sufficiently objectify his material to give it the discipline of form. His fiction is episodic – as loosely constructed as the picaresque romances of eighteenth-century Spain or France.
