  • Louis Leslie Thesis Without Copyright Images
    ‘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.

Here it is, no doubt, tha:t one catches the charm of rigours that take place all in the aesthetic and the critical world. They would be invidious, would be cruel, if applied to personal interests, but they take on a high benignity as soon as the values concerned become values mainly for the mind. (if they happen to have also a trade-value this is pure superfluity and excess.) The thought of the acres of canvas and the tons of marble to be turned out into the cold world as the penalty of old error and the warrant for a clean slate ought to have drawn tears from the eyes. But these impending incidents affected me, in fact, on the spot, as quite radiant demonstrations. The Museum, in short, was going to be great, and in the geniality of Ithe life to come such sacrifices, though resembling those of the funeral-pile of Sardanapalus, dwindled to nothing (p.

  • William Dean Howells Bibliography
    W. D. HOWELLS William Dean Howells, author, editor, and critic was born on March 1, 1837 in Martinsville, now Martin’s Ferry, Ohio. The son of a printer, Howells began working as a typesetter and a printer’s apprentice before serving a term as city editor of the Ohio State Journal in 1858. He published poems, stories and reviews in Atlantic Monthly and other magazines, and wrote for the Cincinnati Gazette and The Sentinel. He was awarded the post of U.S. Consul to Venice in 1861 for his service to the Lincoln presidential campaign. After leaving Venice, Howells became assistant editor (1866-1871) and then editor (1871-1888) of the Atlantic Monthly. Although he wrote over a hundred books in various genres, including poems, literary criticism, plays, memoirs, and travel narratives, Howells is best known for his realistic fiction, including A Modern Stance (1881). Howells remained proud of his Ohio roots throughout his life. In the latter part of his career, he drew increasingly on life in Ohio in his autobiographic works (A Boy’s Town, 1890) and his novels (The Kentons, 1903). A staunch critic of racial intolerance, Howells was a founding member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in 1909. William Dean Howells died in New York City on May 11, 1920. MIAMI UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES NOTE: The call numbers also reflect a location of the title.

  • The Mediating Nation: American Literature and Globalization from Henry James to Woodrow Wilson
    THE MEDIATING NATION: AMERICAN LITERATURE AND GLOBALIZATION FROM HENRY JAMES TO WOODROW WILSON NATHANIEL CADLE A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English. Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by Advisor: Jane Thrailkill Reader: Tyler Curtain Reader: Joy Kasson Reader: Timothy Marr Reader: John McGowan © 2008 Nathaniel Cadle ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract Nathaniel Cadle: The Mediating Nation: American Literature and Globalization from Henry James to Woodrow Wilson (Under the direction of Jane Thrailkill) The Mediating Nation: American Literature and Globalization from Henry James to Woodrow Wilson reconstructs the history of American globalization between 1875 and 1920 through an analysis of literary and public discourse about the United States’ place in the world. Engaging the work of sociologists like Roland Robertson, who locates the origins of globalization in this period, I argue that American identity emerges only in relation to—and interaction with—the rest of the world. This approach therefore rejects exceptionalist readings of American literature, offering instead a functionalist account of the formation of American identity and culture that focuses on America’s position in the international community. The Mediating Nation integrates and expands the work of several recent literary critics, including Walter Benn Michaels, who reveals how racial and cultural anxiety shaped American writers’ sense of national identity, and Amy Kaplan, who demonstrates how American authors underwrote U.S. policies of imperial expansion. In the first section of this project, I establish how global theory contributes to our understanding of American literary scholarship and what historical events and developments turned the United States into a globalized nation.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. Whfle the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material subnutted. The foUoudng explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning" the material. It is customary to b e ^ filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

By every measure, the volumes we have so far are simply outstanding in every major respect. The books are physically beautiful inside and out; Walker and Zacharias have edited the letters to within an inch of their lives. The result is an embarrassment of critical and biographical riches.”—BRUCE BAWER, New Criterion “Rippling through these letters are the first imaginative stirrings of one of the greatest fiction and travel writers in the language.

  • In Henry James
    humanities Article The Mystery of “Collaboration” in Henry James James Lello St Catharine’s College, University of Cambridge, Cambridge CB2 1RL, UK; [email protected] Abstract: This article argues for the importance of collaboration as a species of literary relation in Henry James’s work. Collaboration was increasingly popular towards the end of the nineteenth century, and yet, James’s interest in and occasional practice of this compositional mode has been largely overlooked. This is partly due to James’s own ambivalent and contested relationship with multiple authorship, most obviously in his contribution to The Whole Family. However, James’s frequent identification of collaboration as a “mystery” indicates the extent to which it exerted a considerable influence over his imagination and thinking, and its association with some of his most formative moments of novelistic and vocational self-awareness. “Collaboration” is also a literary subject in its own right, most obviously in James’s 1892 story of that name, and the depiction of the practice as a unifying, if occasionally divisive, ideal offers a complex and often enigmatic vision of sociable reciprocity. Keywords: Henry James (1843–1916); relations; collaboration; tone Few of Henry James’s critical statements can be as familiar as that found in the 1907 Preface to the revised edition of Roderick Hudson: Really, universally, relations stop nowhere, and the exquisite problem of the artist is eternally but to draw, by a geometry of his own, the circle within which they shall happily appear to do so. (James 1984a, p. 1041) Citation: Lello, James. 2021. The Mystery of “Collaboration” in Henry James, we may recall, is answering his own question regarding where “for the complete James.
