Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner's The Gilded Age has received less academic attention than Twain's other major works. While prior interpretations have focused on the novel's criticisms of American political, legal, and financial systems, this paper argues that these interpretations ignore the fundamental framework of the novel. Focusing on the character of Sellers, the paper argues that he represents the negative businessman, similar to Plausiby in Edward Eggleston's novel The Mystery of Metropolisville. Sellers's prominent characteristics of loquacity and business imagination are represented in his map, which he uses to promote his fraudulent schemes. This comparison suggests that The Gilded Age can be interpreted as a critique of the dangers of capitalism and the rise of the negative businessman in the Gilded Age.
