This madness/supernatural conundrum recurs because of certain trends within the writers' cultural and literary milieux. From a literary standpoint, both Maupassant and James were working in the fanrastique, a genre which, by definition, indicates that the reader hesitates between natural and supernatural explanations for the story's events. And, from a cultural perspective, both writers were writing in environments where the distinction between spiritualism and psychology was often unclear. Maupassant leaves his reader in hesitation as a way of expressing the cultural ambiguity between madness and the supernatural, whereas James utilizes the blur between madness and the supernatural to explore the "reading effect" that the reader experiences when left in hesitation.
