Book The Complete Notebooks of Henry James

Download or read book The Complete Notebooks of Henry James written by Henry James and published by New York : Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1987 with total page 633 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Complete Notebooks of Henry James opens a wide, clear window into the private workshop of America's master novelist, the architect of modernism in fiction. It is a volume that deserves to be called definitive. Assembled and edited by Leon Edel, James's much-acclaimed prizewinning biographer, and Lyall H. Powers, critic and editor of James's letters to Edith Wharton, this book includes the nine scribbler-notebooks that were published by Oxford in 1947; these have been considerably updated and annotated to correct the identification of stories developed by James from his various notes and to reveal many noted Victorians James concealed through use of their initials. Certain omitted portions of the notebooks have also been restored. This volume is especially noteworthy for the body of new material that it contains. It includes a series of James's pocket diaries in which, amid appointments and luncheon dates, he jotted down observations and ideas for his fiction and commented on his personal relations. Also here are some fugitive dictated notes, in which James offered an autobiographcial meditation on the "turning Point in his life and the "working out" of a story based on a passion murder by an American acquaintance in the south of France. James's long out-of-print statements for his unfinished novels The Ivory Tower and The Sense of the Past, scenarios for unfinished plays, the writer's deathbed dictation--all these are here as well. An appendix includes a substantial fragment of a story James never completed, and the book even provides insight into James's "cash accounts." Everywhere throughout the collection, in writings never intended for the public eye, the artist is seen at work. his private prayers to his Muse and exhortations to himself make exhilarating reading.

This book was released on 2018-01-20 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pictures and Other Passages From Henry James The pleasure of my discovery was the greater in that not one of my contemporaries shared my enthusiasm - it was a secret garden of which I alone possessed the key, and in which I could pass golden hours, with the power there acquired of making my own life into a garden too, where common things were no longer boring but endowed with a curious significance, and every smile or fluttering eyelid had its own interest and peculiar meaning. I did not even possess one of these magic volumes as yet - that came later with the Tauchnitz editions and the second-hand copies, found by rare and happy chance on bookstalls at stations or in booksellers' sales. In those early days the precious volumes were brought home to read at twopence a time from the lending library, and taken out again and again until they became in this laborious way really a part of myself.

Book Henry James  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Henry James Classic Reprint written by Rebecca West and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Henry James Its homespun honesty of texture, its austerer sort of beauty; but plainly the American people were too preoccupied by their busi nesses and professions to devote their money to the embellishment of salons or their intelligence to the development of manners. Hawthorne and Emerson and Margaret Fuller and their friends were trying to make a culture against time; but any record Of their lives which gives a candid account Of how desperately these people had to struggle to make the meanest living shows that the poor American ants were then utterly unable to form the leisured community which is the necessary environment for grasshoppers. The impression Of Emerson's personal history is condensed into the single word Concord, wrote Mr James later, and all the condensation in the world will not make it rich. There was no blinking the fact that in attempting to set up in this unfinished country Art was like a delicate lady who moves into a house before the plaster is dried on the walls; she was bound to lead an invalid existence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Letters of Henry James, Vol. 2 The much-debated visit to America took lace at last in 1904, and in ten very full months James secured that renewed saturation in can experience which he desired before it should be too late for his advantage. He saw far more of his country in these months than he had_ ever seen in old days. He went with the definite purpose of writing a book of impressions, and these were to be principally the impressions of a restored absentee, reviving the sunken and overlaid mem ories of his youth. But his memories were practi cally of New York, Newport and Boston only; to the country beyond he came for the most part as a complete stranger; and his voyage of new dis covery proved of an interest as great as that which he found in revisiting ancient haunts. The Ameri can Scene, rather than the letters he was able to write in the midst of such a stir of movement, gives his account of the adventure. On the spot the daily assault of sensation, besetting him wherever he turned, was too insistent for deliberate report he quickly saw that his book would have to be postponed for calmer hours at home; and his let.
