ReferencesOverview

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.

Explanatory Notes:

• 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.
• Blue entries 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 + 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; typing - retrieves entries for which no material is available.
