Another grad student, is working on the famous opening to Huck Finn:  the "Notice" from "G. G.".(whoever that is??)


  I'm not looking for exhaustive discussion on here, and I know over the years I've personally read numerous critical takes on it.  I'm wondering which readings/ analyses of that "Notice" have seemed to some of you on the Twain LIST to be the most influential/ most interesting/ most decisive in our understanding of Twain's use of it?
