In addition to Hal Bush's excellent suggestion of seeing Prof.
Ishihara's _Mark Twain in Japan_ for cross-cultural analysis, for
Russian responses see Yan Berenitsky's pieces from _Liturnaya Gazeta_
in the  pamphlet "Mark Twain and The Russians: An Exchange of Views."
An excerpt from that as well as an excerpt from the previously-
untranslated book _Mark Twain and America_ by Abel Startsev, one of
the leading Soviet Americanists, will be  in _The Mark Twain
Anthology_ forthcoming this March  from the Library of America (along
with writing on Twain  that originally appeared in Chinese, Danish,
French, German, Italian,  Japanese, Spanish, and Yiddish that has not
previously been available in English).
