Some folks on here might like to see the article by Frank Lentricchia,
in the latest MICHIGAN QUARTERLY REVIEW, about MT's engagement with
consolation poetry and how it relates to the emergence of modern
poetics.  Among other things, it cites an 1870 article my Twain in the
Galaxy, called "Post-Mortem Poetry," (I have not checked to see if it
has ever been reprinted since then); and the first page of the article
features the print from HF of the self-portrait of Emmeline
Grangerford, elegist.
