why was mark twain arrested?

"Twain originally wanted to be a serious artist; his turn toward humor damaged his artistic promise: ". . . it was in consequence of pursuing it, we have divined, that he was arrested in his moral and aesthetic development" (Brooks 13)."\n\nThe only reference to arrested I could find in regards to Mark Twain... in this case it means stopped, not taken to jail. \n\nhttp://www.uncp.edu/home/canada/work/allam/18661913/lit/twain.htm

This could be a trick question.  "Mark Twain" is a fictional name.  He never lived or died.  But Samuel Clemens, who was the author writing under the pen name of Mark Twain, died in Redding Connecticut, at his home there, named "Stormfield."  The date was April 21, 1910.  He had predicted that he would go out with the comet (Halley's Comet) which appeared when he was born and which indeed came back in April 1910.

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835-1910), who wrote under the name of Mark Twain, became, in America, a sort of national legend, like Bernard Shaw in England. According to D.C.Browning (p.141), "[h]e was an artist in grotesque and somewhat obvious humour, his style and cadence suggesting a talker rather than a writer. He has been called 'the Lincoln of American literature'."  Twain belongs in the realistic period in American Literature (1865-1900). According to Holman (p.437), "in the work of Mark Twain, of William Dean Howells, and of Henry James, the greatest contributions of the age were made." In addition, from Twain´s work, one may have a good idea of spoken language at the time.

Depends upon your state, but usually has to do with the arrest.\n\nIt can be a special type of warrant arrest or sometimes the sw relates to the agency making the arrest.  We would need to know more what location it is at and the context it is in.

Sounds like a bounty hunter is after him.\n\nHe has a warrant for his arrest or did he jump bail?

Good question, I would like to know myself, it has happened to the 2 of us. I think they are suspending the wrong people. Who is Mark D.?

No he just got arrested.  That's different.

The US Supreme Court justice Oliver Wendell Holmes set out a "clear and present danger" limit to the first amendment protection of free speech in which shouting fire in a crowded theater was cited as the main example. Anyone who did so could be charged for willfully causing harm to others and instigating a riot.\n\nThat doesn't mean that you will be caught (who will be able to tell that it was you?), or that you can't just claim that you thought there was actually a fire breaking out.

Isn't that mark twain?\n\nI read that just this year but i basically forgot it because i read a lot of stuff. Does it have to do with a bar bet with frogs or a frog doing something and he doesn't do. Well I don't know but here's the story.

both are very different situations. being in jail is actual confinement. house arrest affords one the comforts of their own home.

I've forgotten the exact details of the story,but once there was a man who for one reason or another was being unjustly hanged in Dublin.The hangman didn't tie the noose properly and instead of breaking his neck,the man slowly choked,hanging there.His wife begged for him to be released,but the only thing that the cruel judge would allow was for her to pull on his leg,speeding up his choking,and killing him faster.That's where the term comes from.

Mark Twain. It means that the person is frazzled and doesn't know what to do next, what to think, or where to go!

Neal, you can "GOOGLE" this man and see what comes up, otherwise you can search old court house Archives on the actual arrest and case in the jurisidiction where it occured. Many states have this online now , and its usually free, check with the court house in the county or state where the incident occured. If you need a background check, you can do a people search for a few bucks right here on yahoo, or worse you can hire a private investigator.. good luck!\npeacheswrites
