What is Man? shows a dramatic shift in Mark Twain’s style and his different depiction of the human race. The Old Man, Twain’s mouthpiece, insists that man is a machine completely controlled by outside influences, heredity and training and manipulated only by the sole impulse to content his peace of mind. The Old Man also condemns human cruelty, stupidity, cowardness, and selfishness and blames the Moral Sense for the source of human evil nature. This paper arrives at a more integrated, comprehensive understanding of Mark Twain’s view of human beings in the work. Mark Twain was a moralist at heart. After experiencing his severe financial troubles and personal tragedies, he began to accept realism, Darwinism, Social Darwinism, and determinism, which can explain immoral social injustice and personal tragedies as unavoidable phenomena. These theories that he upheld so vigorously, however, do not coincide with his belief. Therefore, a different depiction of the human race and his conflict between his conviction and the dominant mood of the later part of the 19th century in What Is Man? reflects Mark Twain’s natural shift from a moral optimist to a man of comprehensive understanding of human beings.
