| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Masterpieces of American Wit and Humor" by Thomas L. Masson is a collection of humorous writings compiled in the early 20th century. The anthology features a variety of authors, including well-known literary figures like Mark Twain, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and William Dean Howells, showcasing the richness of American wit and humor. The book compiles several pieces that explore themes of human foibles, societal observations, and lighthearted commentary on everyday life, highlighting the enduring appeal of humor in American culture. The opening of the work begins with an introduction by Agnes Repplier, who expresses a nostalgic yearning for humor in literature amidst a climate of serious literary criticism. She elaborates on how humor, once revered for its ability to uplift and entertain, is increasingly scrutinized through moral and philosophical lenses, sometimes leading to the erosion of its light-hearted nature. Repplier argues for the importance of laughter in human experience and bemoans the loss of innocent mirth as modern perspectives shift towards earnestness. This setting serves as a prelude to the humorous selections that follow, inviting readers to engage with the witty narratives that characterize the essence of American humor crafted by various celebrated authors of the time.
