Abstract

There is a new generation of critics with a particular interest in Henry James, and it is the intention of this collection of original essays to give a representative sample of its flavour. Using a wide variety of methods, ranging from close readingtodetailedhistoricalplacing, thecontributors are provocative and radical. They include John Lucas on Washington Square, Juliet Mitchell on What Maisie Knew, Gabriel Pearson on The Golden Bowl, Bernard Richards on The Ambassadors and The Sacred Fount and — in what amounts to a major statement on the art of fiction — D. J. Gordon and John Stokes on The Tragic Muse. £4.85
