Mark Twain on Copyright, § 3.52 in Testifying Before Congress, Remarks of Samuel Langhorne Clemens Before the Congressional Joint Committee on Patents, December, 1906 | Mark Twain | United States Congress
From Testifying Before Congress, by William LaForge (TheCapitol.Net) ISBN 10: 1587331721, ISBN 13: 978-1-58733-172-5 There are moments in the history of congressional committee hearings in which someone larger than life has had the opportunity to testify and, moreover, to deliver a message to a committee that is both serious and humorous at once. One such occasion involved Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known as Mark Twain and widely considered to be the greatest humorist of 19th-century American literature, who contributed a major piece of humor in the context of his testimony before a congressional hearing in 1906. Assuming his public persona by notably wearing a white suit that became his signature uniform, the 71-year-old author appeared before the Congressional Joint Committee on Patents to share his thoughts on a pending copyright bill. Twain was the main and final witness of the hearing, which was held in the Congressional Reading Room of the Library of Congress. Before an unusually large crowd for a congressional hearing, Twain expressed his strong support for copyright protection for authors, artists, and musicians. His testimony, part-serious, part-humorous, was considered to be very influential in the eventual development of copyright law. For more information about this book, see www.TCNTwain.com

§3.52 HITS: Humor in Testimony— Mark Twain
There are moments in the history of congressional committee hearings in which some- one larger than life has had the opportunity to testify and, moreover, to deliver a mes- sage to a committee that is both serious and humorous at once. One such occasion involved Samuel Langhorne Clemens, better known as Mark Twain and widely considered to be the greatest humorist of 19th-century American lit- erature, who contributed a major piece of humor in the context of his testimony before a congressional hearing in 1906. Assuming his public persona by notably wearing a white suit that became his sig- nature uniform, the 71-year-old author appeared before the Congressional Joint Com- mittee on Patents to share his thoughts on a pending copyright bill. Twain was the main and final witness of the hearing, which was held in the Con- gressional Reading Room of the Library of Congress. Before an unusually large crowd for a congressional hearing, Twain expressed his strong support for copyright protec- tion for authors, artists, and musicians. His testimony, part-serious, part-humorous, was considered to be very influential in the eventual development of copyright law.
