Description

Explore a new way of reading Henry James through Maya Higashi Wakana's scholarly analysis. This work focuses on three of James's most famous completed novels: The Ambassadors, The Wings of the Dove, and The Golden Bowl. Instead of the usual focus on broad historical or cultural settings, this book uses a microsociological approach to examine the small details of life. Wakana argues that daily living is naturally theatrical and often involves duplicity. The text examines how James captures the difficult and sometimes risky complications found in everyday face-to-face rituals. This study provides a fresh perspective for students and scholars of literary theory and Jamesian studies, looking closely at how mundane social interactions shape the characters and the narrative art.
