Twain had several reasons to write "A Connecticut Yankee ..."

* to satirize the romanitic images of Le Morte d'Arthur * to satirize the British nobility * to satirize the belif in magic and religion * to show the superiority of the native American tinker * as a love story * to discuss economic theory * to show his own familiarity with science and engineering
