Henry James - Henry James was born in New York City on April 15, 1843. His father insisted on a European education for his children, so throughout the 1850s the family traveled to Geneva, London, Paris, and Bonn, where the children were privately educated by tutors. They returned to America in 1860, and James attended Harvard Law School for a year. After dropping out, he contributed reviews, critical essays, and short stories to the “Nation,” the “North American Review,” the “Galaxy,” and the “Atlantic Monthly,” where he met editor William Dean Howells. His first short story, “A Tragedy of Error,” was published anonymously in 1864. From 1869 to 1876, James made several trips to Europe while continuing to publish his works, including his first novel “Watch and Ward,” in American magazines. During his travels he met such influential Europeans as William Morris, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, John Ruskin, George Eliot, Gustave Flaubert, Emile Zola, and Ivan Turgenev. He settled permanently in England in 1876, and over the next few years published short stories and essays as well as the novels “Roderick Hudson” (1876), “The American” (1877), “The Europeans” (1878), “Daisy Miller” (1879), “Washington Square” (1881), and “The Portrait of a Lady” (1881), many of which focused on the contrast between Americans and Europeans. During the 1880s and 1890s, he attempted to find success as a playwright while continuing to publish his novels, including “The Bostonians” (1886), “The Princess Casamassima” (1886), “The Aspern Papers” (1888), “The Spoils of Poynton” (1897), “What Maisie Knew” (1897), “The Turn of the Screw” (1898), and “The Awkward Age” (1899). In 1896, James moved from London to Lamb House in Rye, Sussex, where he published his last novels, “The Wings of the Dove” (1902), “The Ambassadors” (1903), “The Golden Bowl” (1904), and “The Outcry” (1911), as well as several short stories and essays. He also began writing his autobiography, which was published in two volumes, “A Small Boy and Others” (1913) and “Notes of a Son and Brother” (1914). He received honorary degrees from Harvard and Oxford, and on January 1, 1916, King George V awarded him the Order of Merit. James died in England on February 28, 1916.
