商品描述

This book offers the first full-length study of Henry James's relationship with, and literary treatment of, New York. It shows how the city, whether observed or reimagined, always remained an essential component of James's identity. New York compelled James to confront both his status as an American-born male artist and his age's prevailing notions of gender, sexuality, class, citizenship, and success. Tracing James's attachment to the city and how it evolved during his lifetime, this book examines a wide range of James's works, from his short stories and novels to his non-fiction writing.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書提供了亨利·詹姆斯與紐約之間關係及其文學處理的首部完整研究。它展示了這座城市無論是被觀察還是重新想像,始終是詹姆斯身份的重要組成部分。紐約迫使詹姆斯面對他作為一位美國出生的男性藝術家的地位,以及他所處時代對性別、性取向、階級、公民身份和成功的主流觀念。這本書追溯了詹姆斯對這座城市的依戀及其在他一生中的演變,並檢視了詹姆斯的廣泛作品,從他的短篇小說和長篇小說到他的非虛構寫作。
