I am deeply indebted to Philip Horne, who helped me at every turn with his knowledge of all things Jamesian, and in particular pointed me in the direction of writings (stories, articles, letters) that I would otherwise have overlooked. As my principal contact on the General Editors’ team, he was by turns encouraging and critical, and always in a way that moved the pro- ject forward. Adrian Poole and Tamara Follini also kept me up to the mark, and I received valuable information and advice from Michael Anesko and Greg Zacharias, especially regarding James’s relations with his British and American publishers. Many colleagues in Bristol and elsewhere have shared their knowledge of texts and contexts with me over a period of several years, and the notes in particular have been enriched by their suggestions. The Bostonians is as allusive as – a Henry James novel; no editor could begin to trace its echoes, quotations, parallels and analogies without such help. Needless to say, any errors and omissions are my responsibility. Samantha Matthews laid the foundations of this edition by compiling the essential list of resources – historical, bibliographical and critical – needed to get it under way, and by shaping my thoughts as to the signicance of James’s sense of place – especially his very ‘partial portrait’ of the city of Boston itself. Jeffrey Gutierrez at the Editorial Institute in Boston enhanced my knowledge of the early reviews of the novel, and also drew my attention to the article on ‘The Solidarity of the Sex’ in the Boston Daily Globe which is reproduced in Appendix B. I owe a debt of gratitude and admiration of another order to my mentor in American literary history, Stephen Fender. He made me, at University viii © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-00398-9 — The Bostonians Henry James , Edited by Daniel Karlin Frontmatter More Information acknowledgements College London, a teacher of American literature and then encouraged me to begin to study the nineteenth-century writers I have always loved. The Bostonians featured in many of our conversations as an extraordinary sum- mative statement of the legacy of New England to American modernity. My part in this book is dedicated to him. ix © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-00398-9 — The Bostonians Henry James , Edited by Daniel Karlin Frontmatter More Information ABBREVIATIONS 1886 Henry James, The Bostonians (London and New York: Macmillan and Co., 1886) A Philip Horne (ed.), Autobiographies: A Small Boy and Others; Notes of a Son and Brother; The Middle Years; Other Autobiographical Writings (New York: Library of America, 2016) AF Janet Beer, Anne-Marie Ford and Katherine Joslin (ed.), American Feminism: Key Source Documents 1848–1920, 4 vols.

Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.This early work by Henry James was originally published in 1917 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).

    Department of Languages, Literature & Philosophy Languages, Literature & Philosophy Working Papers Tennessee State University Year 2007 William James and His Individual Crisis HARRY MADDUX [email protected] This paper is posted at E-Research@Tennessee State University. http://e-research.tnstate.edu/llp wp/2 William James and the Individual 1 William James and His Individual Crisis I. Introduction Students of William James have long commented on how critical periods of his life compelled crucial developments in his philosophical thought. Ralph Barton Perry was the first to capitalize upon this recognition, with his examination of how James’s depression resulted in a very practical and highly personalized belief in the necessity of action as the only viable response to the Darwinian “process of the universe” (Perry 1: 322). Charlene Seigfried posits that, in addition to this seminal event, James likely faced two other crises. In 1895, he turned from psychological studies to specifically philosophical issues (William James’s Radical Reconstruction 12). In 1908-1909, these endeavors forced him to “give up ‘intellectualistic logic’” entirely and depend on a reconstructed “rational strand” in order to answer the old question (first posed in The Principles of Psychology) of how many consciousnesses can be at the same time one consciousness (13). Such insights have enriched and enlivened James studies, but the generalized conclusion they indicate—that James’s philosophy was an intensely lived but largely successful experience—deserves reevaluation. The first part of this judgment is accurate; the second is far less so. James’s first crisis was without doubt a lonely experience precipitated by questions of his responsibility to society and his place among others’ lives (Perry 1: 322).

  • WALL STREET in the AMERICAN NOVEL Wayne W. Westbrook A
    WALL STREET IN THE AMERICAN NOVEL Wayne W. Westbrook A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 1972 p © 1972 WAYNE WILLIAM WESTBROOK ALL RIGHTS RESERVED IH ABSTRACT Wall Street is construed to represent the American financial center, La Salle Street in Chicago, State StreetiinbBoston and Third Street in Philadelphia as well as New York's lower Manhattan district. The novels and stories considered are those in which the financial center serves a primary function, either in influencing plot, character or in providing the background and atmosphere for the main action, Both archetypal and textual analysis are applied in seeing the recurrent motifs in the novel of high finance, patterns and themes which are fully articulated and developed in the late nineteenth-century version, yet which are not found to bear an influence on later financial fiction. The reason for this is that the American literary artist has had a prejudicial view of high finance and speculation which is rooted in his cultural heritage of the Puritan opposition to playing or gaming as a way to wealth and success. The writer's attitude, therefore, is largely con­ demnatory, regarding an individual's involvement with the financial marketplace as a form of personal corruption, profligacy and degen­ eracy. Further, the idea of the sin and evil of Wall Street has as its probable historical source the volatile course that American finance has traced since the post-Civil War industrial age, in the highly cyclical and repetitive pattern of boom and bust periods.
