Book Description Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 2nd Impression. Hardback. Henry James and the French Novel. Slight foxing to edge. Slight shelf wear to edge of D/J. Sunned spine to D/J. Price clipped to D/J. Henry James owed more than is generally relaised to the example of contemporary French writers. His interest in French literature was lifelong, his constant reading and re-reading of French novelists often providing the stimulus of form of the French, which he found lacking in the American and the English novel. Many of James's later concerns as a novelist have their origin in his attempts to emulate Balzac, who seemed to him to have solved technical problems he had himself failed to solve in his early works. James's search for a unified language - with no distinctive break and interior monologue - is Flaubert's. His manner of presenting the visible world came to owe much to the ideas of the Goncourts, Daudet and other writers of the 'L'Art pour l'Art' movement, ideas that he assimilated and transformed for his own imaginative purposes. But this book is not a narrow study of 'influences'; it is a comparative study which shows how major writers evolved their own unique approaches towards similar themes and problems. This study offers a fascinating view into James's literary workshop from a vantage-point hitherto largely overlooked, yet one that proves highly rewarding in its illumination of many aspects of James's work. 221pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
