      Ernest Hemingway once said, “All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn.” He continued, however, to say about the second part of the story, “If you read it, you must stop where the Nigger Jim is stolen from the boys [sic]. That is the real end. The rest is just cheating.” As with Huckleberry Finn, most of Mark Twain's long novels have often been criticized as incoherent in the development of thematic concerns and inconsistent in the description of characters. The same is particularly true of his quaint-looking combined story, The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson and the Comedy of Those Extraordinary Twins (1894). Yet, this book seems to me a tightly united and connected novel. In order to reveal this, the following questions will be discussed in this paper, especially in the light of the writer's traumatic autobiographical facts. Why is the title character and the hero of the former story, Wilson, mocked as a pudding-head? Why is this story titled Wilson's tragedy, not Roxy's nor Tom's? Why did Mark Twain add the latter farce of Those Extraordinary Twins to the former tragic drama of Pudd'nhead Wilson?

      Today, Machiavellism is generally regarded as a specific rule of political action stemming from the necessity and autonomy of politics. In other words, the problem of Machiavellism is raised as one related to the tragic antinomy between politics and ethics. However, such an interpretation has its roots in 19th-century German Historicism. Here, it should be noted that the term Machiavellism itself was generated and spread in the mid-16th century. The word has its genesis in the old interpretation of Machiavelli's political science, which accused Machiavelli of being a teacher of evil. The purpose of this paper is to rediscover the essence of Machiavellism in terms of its original meaning. First, the fundamental character of the present-day interpretation of Machiavellism must be articulated by analyzing German Historicism. Then, intentionally avoiding ideas that are related to German Historicism, the original meaning of Machiavellism must be grasped by analyzing the interpretation of Machiavelli's political science as raised by his first readers in the 16th century.
