Description

This Routledge academic study examines Henry James's final three completed novels - The Ambassadors, The Wings of the Dove, and The Golden Bowl - through a microsociological lens that challenges traditional historical and cultural interpretations. Author Maya Higashi Wakana argues that everyday life operates as inherently theatrical and duplicitous performance, revealing how James's literary art hinges upon the complex, often perilous dynamics of ordinary face-to-face social rituals. The work provides fresh critical perspective on James's exploration of mundane human interactions and their underlying tensions, offering scholars and students of literary theory a nuanced examination of how performative elements shape character behaviour and narrative meaning in James's most sophisticated later works.

Key Features
