Good Vibes!?!By GioThe 'Reverberator' is not, as some readers might feverishly suppose, a hand-held device for erotic auto-stimulation, nor is it one of those fashionable quivery armchairs. No, it's the name on the masthead of an American tabloid, a racy gossip sheet, for which Mr. George Flack is the Parisian correspondent. The only vibrations you'll experience while reading this 1888 novella will be the shaking of your sides at Henry James's wry satire. Mr. Flack is the driving anti-hero of this tale, a prophetic verbal 'paparazzo' of sensationalist journalism, a man with a vision of the vulgar times we have to admit to be ours; speaking to a young woman he hopes to impress, he says: "You ain't going to be able any longer to monopolize any fact of general interest, and it ain't going to be right you should; it ain't going to be possible to keep out anywhere the light of the Press... We'll see who's private then, and whose hands are off, and who'll frustrate the people -- the People that wants to know. That's a sign of the American people that they do want to know..." Mr Flack is the obnoxious harbinger of People Magazine, and of the politics of exposeacute; and outright defamations that degrades American democracy today. The changing societal modes of privacy versus publicity are central themes of the two novellas James published together in his mid career, "The Reverberator" and "A London Life".All the principal characters of The Reverberator are Americans in Paris. Mr. Flack's object of admiration is the winsome Francie Dosson, in Paris with her plain but ambitious older sister Delia and their wealthy retired father. The Dossons, to put it plainly, are rubes. Mr. Dosson is as culturally and intellectually blank as John Locke's slate; his only claim to any specific personhood has been his knack for making money through investments. Delia is 'horridly' declasseacute;, vulgar to her toes. Francie is unaccountably beautiful and graceful, but she is exactly what modern observers would call an "airhead". Flack introduces her to yet another American in Paris, the 'rising' impressionist painter Waterlow, for whom Francie agrees to pose though she finds his paintings bizarre. At Waterlow's studio, another 'American' enters the story: Gaston Probert, the scion of a Catholic family that migrated to France from the Carolinas in flight from abolition and democracy. The Proberts have wealth, still based in America, and have married into the staunchly reactionary French Legitimist aristocracy. They are the stiffest of snobs, but young Gaston is at sea over his own identity, unsure of his true national character and of his manly worth on the terms of either culture. Each character in this novella is simultaneously a stinging caricature and yet a perfectly plausible individual. The romantic tussle that results from their chance encounter reveals each of them to be exactly who they seem, even when they aren't quite capable of knowing themselves.The Reverberator is a brilliant study of characters and a well-paced comic tale. Henry James's wit, to be sure, often takes the form of syntactical feints and pirouettes. Ah reckin thet sorta wit ain't fer ev'body ... and perhaps this accounts for the diffuse prejudice among readers today that James is a 'difficult' writer, more work than play. It's not so. "The Reverberator" and its companion "A London Life" are highly entertaining, even as they dig psychologically under the surface of ordinary human relations.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. FlatlinersBy H. SchneiderShe seemed to be doing nothing as hard as she could.The problem with this short novel from the 1880s is that there are no real people in it, only shadow lines of 2 dimensions. Between two fat novels (Princess Casamassima and Tragic Muse), James apparently felt obliged (publisher's pressure?) to produce something shorter and funnier. He did and some readers have liked it, but I can't quite warm up to it.Usually, James' strength was in his psychological finesse, which could make me see an interest in people and problems that I might otherwise ignore. He does not achieve that here. Also, in general I like his shorter pieces better, but Francie and Gaston have left me cold. James' women are a subject of their own, and there is a lot of variation among them, but I can't remember any heroine as uninteresting as Francie. Nor any main male as boring as Gaston.We have an encounter of 2 families in Paris, both of American origin, both, oddly, without mother. A wealthy man from Boston travels Europe with 2 daughters, a bossy but ugly one and a pretty but mindless one. A Frenchified resident family, whose wealth is based on property in Carolina, consists of a snobbish aging father, a do-nothing son, and 3 daughters married to various French aristocrats.The do-nothing son and the pretty but mentally flat daughter get entangled, but even that happens without much excitement. The excitement comes from a slip by the girl: she tells some family secrets to a failed suitor who works for an American scandal press product. That complicates things for a while, as the yellow press usually will. If the yellow press were more in the forefront of the story, the novel might be more interesting. As it is, I can't find it very funny. This early work by Henry James was originally published in 1888 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. Henry James was born in New York City in 1843. One of thirteen children, James had an unorthodox early education, switching between schools, private tutors and private reading. James published his first story, 'A Tragedy of Error', in the Continental Monthly in 1864, when he was twenty years old. In 1876, he emigrated to London, where he remained for the vast majority of the rest of his life, becoming a British citizen in 1915. From this point on, he was a hugely prolific author, eventually producing twenty novels and more than a hundred short stories and novellas, as well as literary criticism, plays and travelogues. Amongst James's most famous works are The Europeans (1878), Daisy Miller (1878), Washington Square (1880), The Bostonians (1886), and one of the most famous ghost stories of all time, The Turn of the Screw (1898). We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. About the AuthorHenry James was born the son of a religious philosopher in New York City in 1843. His famous works include The Portrait of a Lady, Washington Square, Daisy Miller, and The Turn of the Screw. He died in London in 1916, and is buried in the family plot in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

  • Wishing to Be Interviewed in Henry James's the Reverberator [Access Article in HTML] [Access Article in PDF] Subjects: ❍ James, Henry, 1843-1916
    Wishing to Be Interviewed in Henry James’s The Reverberator By Matthew Rubery, University of Leeds When Henry James wrote about the age of “newspaperism” he was really writing about the “age of interviewing” (CN 86). While newspapers had existed for over two centuries, the interview was a controversial invention of the late-nineteenth-century press that dramatically influenced the way audiences thought about private life. The public’s willingness to share their most intimate experiences with journalists through this conversational form was even more alarming to James than the invasion of pri- vacy by newspapers. Matthias Pardon of The Bostonians (1885–86) has been taken to embody the invasive style of American journalism described in James’s notebooks: “There must, indispensably, be a type of newspaper man—the man whose ideal is the energetic reporter. I should like to bafouer the vulgarity and hideousness of this—the impudent invasion of privacy—the extinction of all concept of privacy, etc.” (CN 19). The notebooks characterize the loss of privacy in a way that attributes to the over- zealous reporter sole responsibility for any revelations to come in the novel. Pardon begins his career in just such a fashion by collecting potentially scandalous names from hotel registers, although he makes his reputation through nothing more intrusive than speaking with hotel guests on behalf of The Boston Evening Transcript: [He] was the most brilliant young interviewer on the Boston press. He was particularly successful in drawing out the ladies; he had condensed into shorthand many of the most celebrated women of his time—some of these daughters of fame were very voluminous—and he was supposed to have a remarkably insinuating way of waiting upon prime donne and actresses the morning after their arrival, or sometimes the very evening, while their luggage was being brought up.

    ‘Writing Consciously for a Small Audience’: An Exploration of the Relationship between American Magazine Culture and Henry James’ Italian Fiction 1870-1875 ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Louis Laurence Leslie ! UCL ! ! PhD P2 ! ! I, Louis Laurence Leslie, conSirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been deriVed from other sources, I can conSirm that this has !been indicated in the thesis. P3 ! Thesis Abstract ! This thesis explores Henry James’ engagement in his relatiVely neglected early Siction about Italy with material from contemporary magazine culture. By bridging the gap between critics who focus on James’ relationship with Italian culture, and those who examine James’ relationship with his publishers and audience, it aims to explore how he uses interest in Italy manifested in literary magazines to deVelop his writing and build his reputation. The Sirst part of the thesis explores how James writes about Italian culture in his Sirst tales in ways with which his audience would be familiar, in order to cultiVate his readership. The Sirst three chapters deal with ‘TraVelling Companions’ (1870), ‘At Isella’ (1871), and ‘The Madonna of the Future’ (1873) respectiVely. Looking at how magazines represent contemporary debates about the Italian artists and works of art that James depicts, I study the way James draws on this context to !emphasise the relationship between culture and character in his Siction. The second half examines his Siction after 1873 in the light of James’ sense of his emerging literary reputation. Aware of his growing fame, James began to write tales incorporating material from his own serialised traVel writing, thus reinforcing his reputation as a writer about Italy.

  • Henry James, Impressionism, and Publicity
    Henry James, Impressionism, and Publicity Daniel Hannah Lakehead University n two essays that frame his career as a published novelist, Henry James moved I from sardonic derision to celebration of French impressionist painting. In August 1876, James slated Georges Durand-Ruel’s second official impressionist exhibition in the Salon des Refusés for “abjur[ing] virtue altogether, and declar[ing] that a subject which has been crudely chosen shall be loosely treated” (PE 115). Twenty-nine years later, in the essay, “New England: An Autumn Impression,” later published in The American Scene, he offered an about-face, praising “wondrous examples of Manet, of Degas, of Claude Monet, of Whistler” (AS 45-46) for of- fering the “momentary effect of a large slippery sweet inserted, without a warning, between the compressed lips of half-conscious inanition” (AS 46). James’ change, as a number of critics have suggested, probably owes something to his growing sense of a shared aesthetic enterprise, a joint investment in the “impression” as a critical, creative moment; in “The Art of Fiction,” first published in 1884, James famously declares that a “novel is in its broadest definition a personal impression of life” (AF 507).1 Yet when James’ responses to impressionist paintings are read in the context of their publication history, these essays also reveal his sense of how experiments in both pictorial and novelistic art were being forced to negotiate increasingly complex and conflicted forms of circulation in a publicity-conscious marketplace. The curtailing of James’ brief unsuccessful stint as a foreign correspondent in Paris for the New York Tribune in August 1876 no doubt informed his initial disapproval of the Durand-Ruel exhibition’s controversial and highly publicized paintings.

(FW 1087) Again, in the same preface, having given not at all a “long list” of the “intense perceiv- ers” in his own novels, he returns to his consideration of the character of Hyacinth: I had had for a long time well before me, at any rate, my small obscure but ardent observer of the “London world,” saw him roam and wonder and yearn, saw all the unanswered questions and baffled passions that might ferment in him. (1096) And again reverting to Hyacinth a little later: I remember at any rate feeling myself all in possession of little Hyacinth’s consistency, as I have called it, down at Dover during certain weeks that were none too remotely precedent to the autumn of 1885 and the appearance, in the “Atlantic Monthly” again, of the first chapters of the story.

  • On the Echoes of Henry James's the Reverberator: Reflections On
    Volume 4 Issue 2 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND September 2017 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 On the Echoes of Henry James’s The Reverberator: Reflections on Teaching Argumentative Research Papers in Undergraduate Classes on Literature Dr. Nevena Stojanovic Lecturer at West Virginia University, USA Abstract In this essay, I reflect on the teaching experiment that I did several years ago in my class on transatlantic short stories and novels of the nineteenth century. As instructors of literature in a university setting, we often face the question of how to teach undergraduate students what a researched argument is and how to help them come up with effective thesis statements. The number of students, their different educational backgrounds, skills, and motivations can all be a challenge for instructors who need to make sure that everyone enrolled in the class understands the complex processes of research and argumentative writing before starting the draft. Our major concern, however, is how to keep students fully engaged in the processes of exploration, research, and drafting. Here I share my experience of teaching these processes in two 75-minute sessions. I include the methods of teaching and the homework and in-class prompts assigned to the class. I used the model similar to the one that Ashley M. Walter proposed in her thesis, which consists of discussion, providing students with a frame/stance, and transmediation. To this model, I added a mini-session on the in-class exploration of our library’s databases and brainstorming thesis statements. I chose Henry James’s brief and witty novel The Reverberator (1888) for the purposes of this process, mainly because this text has been neglected in the criticism on James’s late work, and I wanted to see what kinds of arguments my students would come up with to recover it.

Just so what is morality but high intellig~nce?"l In Washington Square (1880), in response to his sister's question as to whether he would prefer goodness to cleverness in his daughter, Dr. Sloper answers sharply: "You are good for nothing unless you are clever."2 In The Ambassadors, Maria Gostrey comments with measured disdain on the distortion of Mrs. Newson's picture of Chad's Parisian situation by insisting that: "She im,agined, stupidly." "Stupidly? Dh!" said Strether. But she insisted. "She imagined meanly." He had it, however, better. "It couldn't but be ignorantly." "Well, intensity with ignoranoe - what do you want worse?"3 In "The Art of Fiction," Ja.mes seems to take a similar view of morality: There is one point at which the moral sense and the artistic sense lie very near together; that is in the light of the very obvious truth that the deepest quality of a work of art will always be the quality of the mind of the producer...
