A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, published in 1889 by Mark Twain, is a satirical historical novel that follows Hank Morgan, a 19th-century American engineer who is transported back to the time of King Arthur after a blow to the head. Utilizing his modern knowledge, Hank attempts to improve life in Camelot, challenging the absurdities of medieval society and the power structures of feudalism. The novel critiques romantic notions of chivalry and explores themes of progress, democracy, and the clash between modernity and tradition, making it a significant work in the early time travel genre.
