Abstract: "This volume in the Author Chronologies series offers an articulation of Henry James's biographical experiences, which are presented amid the detailed unfolding of his imaginative writing, and set in the larger context of historical developments that impinged upon his life. Evoking the wide range of his experiences with other human beings, his manifold studies of fellow artists in various fields, and his critical articulation of the art of writing fiction, this study reveals his major influence upon subsequent writers and students of fiction. Included are reference features such as sections on James's 'Ancestry and Family', a 'Who's Who' of the key figures in his life and a helpful Bibliography."--Jacket.
