Download or read book Parisian Sketches written by Henry James and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-17 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Parisian Sketches: Letters to the New York Tribune 1875-1876 Henry J ames's Paris letters to the New York Trib une of almost eighty years ago have been collected in this volume for the first time. Three of the letters were reprinted by James during his lifetime, the remainder were allowed to linger in the crumbling newspaper files in the hope that they would be forgotten. In recent years extracts from those letters that were devoted to the theater were included in Allan Wade's collection of J ames's dramatic criticism, The Scenic Art; and cer tain passages dealing with paintings were incorporated by John L. Sweeney in his compilation of Henry J ames's art criticisms, The Painter's Eye. The ma J or ity of the letters, however, remained uncollected, and available only to those who cared to read the files or the microfilm record.

Book The Aspern Papers and Other Tales  1884   1888

Download or read book The Aspern Papers and Other Tales 1884 1888 written by Henry James and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-04-07 with total page 900 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Edition of the Complete Fiction of Henry James provides, for the first time, a scholarly edition of a major writer whose work continues to be read, quoted, adapted and studied. The nine tales in this volume, published between 1884 and 1888, include 'The Aspern Papers', set in Venice and featuring a devious scholar attempting to steal the letters of an American poet from his former lover, and 'The Liar,' on the world of painters and their models. These tales exemplify James's continuing interest in the art of short fiction during a period which saw him responding to the stimulations of French naturalism and successfully reworking the international theme that had made him famous at the end of the 1870s. Extensive explanatory notes enable modern readers to understand the tales' historical, cultural and literary references.

  • Publisher : Librairie Droz
  • Release : 2013-05-22
  • ISBN : 9782251661919
  • Pages : 488 pages

Download or read book Henry James written by Jeanne Delbaere-Garant and published by Librairie Droz. This book was released on 2013-05-22 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both James’s life and his literary career might be figured as a double spiral rooted at the one end in the American soil and in romanticism, contracting in its middle on contact with France and French naturalism and expanding again into the Anglo-Saxon world and into the twentieth century. The spiral—which also suggests the artist’s indirect approach to reality—strikes me as an adequate symbol for Henry James. From Bramante’s ramp in the Vatican to F.L. Wright’s in the Guggenheim Museum it has always been the favourite shape of all those who claimed greater freedom for the artist, rejected the fixity of academic rules and were convinced that art, like the spirit of man, is capable of endless progress.

  • ISBN : 1442222832
  • Pages : 383 pages

Download or read book John Hay Friend of Giants written by Philip McFarland and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-03-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now, perhaps, only those enmeshed in 19th-century American history know his name; but when John Hay died in 1905, he was one of the most famous men in the world. And one of the most highly regarded. Abraham Lincoln’s private secretary during the Civil War, thereafter as a popular poet, novelist, newspaper editor, highly esteemed historian and biographer, diplomat, businessman, and secretary of state until his death, Hay enjoyed remarkable success in public and private life. In John Hay, Friend of Giants, Philip McFarland presents both the intimate story of Hay’s relationship with four prominent figures of his age and an insightful history of the United States from the 1850s to the turn of the century. Hay’s life and extraordinary friendships provide a window into the politics, literature, society, and diplomacy of this remarkable era of American expansion.

Download or read book The Princess Casamassima written by Henry James and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 966 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Edition of the Complete Fiction of Henry James provides, for the first time, a scholarly edition of a major writer whose work continues to be read, quoted, adapted and studied. Published in three volumes in 1886, The Princess Casamassima follows Hyacinth Robinson, a young London craftsman who carries the stigma of his illegitimate birth, and his French mother's murder of his patrician English father. Deeply impressed by the poverty around him, he is driven to association with political dissidents and anarchists including the charismatic Princess Casamassima - who embodies the problems of personal and political loyalty by which Hyacinth is progressively torn apart. This edition is the first to provide a full account of the context in which the book was composed and received. Extensive explanatory notes enable modern readers to understand its nuanced historical, cultural and literary references, and its complex textual history.
