Book Synopsis Reading Henry James in the Twenty-First Century by : Dennis Tredy
Download or read book Reading Henry James in the Twenty-First Century written by Dennis Tredy and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To commemorate the recent centennial of Henry James’s death and to help readers understand the depth and scope of the author’s influence both today and during the previous century, thirty leading Jamesian scholars from twelve different countries and five continents were asked to explore ways in which the notions of ‘heritage’ and ‘transmission’ currently come into play when reading James. The resulting chapters of this volume are divided into three main sections, each focusing on different ways in which James’s legacy is being re-evaluated today—from his influence on key authors, playwrights and film-makers over the past century (Part One), to new discoveries regarding European authors and artists who influenced James (Part Two), to recent approaches more radically re-evaluating James for the twenty-first century, including contemporary poetics, political and sociological dimensions, cognitive science, and queer studies (Part Three). This collection will be of great interest to scholars and general readers of James, and is a useful guide to tracing the writer’s ever-elusive ‘figure in the carpet’ and understanding the power of his continued impact today.

Although written in 1904-1905, when James returned to the U.S. after living abroad for more than 20 years, the essay is as pertinent today as it was 100 years ago.

Book Synopsis Henry James and the Real Thing by : V. Smith
Download or read book Henry James and the Real Thing written by V. Smith and published by Springer. This book was released on 1994-10-12 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking its title from James's ambivalent catchphrase, this original study explores fundamental concerns of his fiction. It adopts a modern critical approach, yet is written for the intelligent reader whose interest in James is not necessarily academic. It examines six key novels and a number of short stories, interrelating them to provide not only an integrated picture of the fiction, but some conception of what animates it, and readings that challenge long-established critical assumptions.

Download or read book Henry James and the Real Thing written by Virginia Llewellyn Smith and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 1994 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focused on six key novels, this survey of James's fiction takes a critical approach that is modern without being theoretical, and is written for every reader who reads for enjoyment and for the sake of the story. It attempts to rediscover a sense of the real James, on the level that such readers can expect to find it - between 'what happens to the characters' and 'what happens to us as we read' this most magisterial and manipulative of writers.
Book Synopsis This Book Will Make You Kinder by : Henry James Garrett
Download or read book This Book Will Make You Kinder written by Henry James Garrett and published by Souvenir Press. This book was released on 2020-10-20 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Heart-swelling in its wholesomeness' - Gina Martin 'A reminder of the life-changing power of empathy' - Emma Gannon Why are you kind? Could you be kinder? The kindness we owe one another goes far beyond everyday gestures like taking out the neighbour's bins - although it's important not to downplay those small acts. Kindness can also mean much more. In this timely, insightful guide, Henry James Garrett lays out the case for developing a strong, courageous, moral kindness, one that will help you fight cruelty and make the world a more empathetic place. Building on his academic studies in metaethics and using his signature sweet animal cartoons, Henry explores the sources and the limitations of human empathy and the many ways, big and small, that we can work toward being our best and kindest selves. A world in which everyone was the fully-empathetic of version of themselves would be a very kind world indeed. And that's the world this book will move us toward.

Book Synopsis Travels with Henry James by : Henry James
Download or read book Travels with Henry James written by Henry James and published by Nation Books. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “To travel with James in these pages is to take an unhurried vacation with a thoroughly seasoned, supremely cultivated, acutely intelligent companion. Our guide is a curious, engaged observer not only of landscapes and streets and cathedrals but also of paintings and plays and the characteristics—national, social, and individual—of the people we encounter at his side. This is a book to be read slowly, the better to absorb its sights and sounds, its insights and reflections.” —from the foreword by Hendrik Hertzberg Brimming with charm, wit, and biting criticism, this new collection of travel essays reintroduces the iconic novelist Henry James as a formidable travel companion. Whether for a trip to Lake George or an afternoon visit to an art exhibit in Paris, James will delight readers with his insights and make them feel nostalgic for places they’ve never been.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “One of the most satisfying of all letter-writers.” — Spectator Henry James’s beautiful letters to his friend and inspiration, the unconventional art collector Isabella Stewart Gardner Surrounded by the artists, writers and musicians who made up her court in Boston as they did in Venice, Isabella Stewart Gardner, a passionate art collector, was as revered and sought after as royalty. Henry James was inspired by the rich and powerful Gardner, as well as by the Palazzo Barbaro in Venice, when he wrote his novel The Wings of the Dove. Gardner was to recreate a larger-than-life version of Palazzo Barbaro in Boston, which is now the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. These dazzling letters bring to life James’s passion for Venice and the Palazzo Barbaro, and serve as an introduction to the fascinating world of Isabella Stewart Gardner herself.
