  5. Chapters 20, 21, 22 • Think-Pair-Share • What do we learn about the attitudes, beliefs, and personal qualities of the duke and the dauphin from their words and actions? • In what way is the characterization of the duke and the king satiric? • Consider their claims about their lineage, their acting, and the faulty historical and literary allusions they make. What is Twain suggesting by having the king and the duke pull their first “con” at a religious revival? • Use evidence to explain how Twain characterizes the Arkansas townspeople. What is the author’s purpose in portraying them as he does?
