As an American author who chose to live in Europe, Henry James frequently wrote about cultural differences between the Old and New Worlds. The plight of bewildered Americans adrift on a sea of European sophistication became a regular theme in his fiction. Written by some of the world’s leading James scholars, this collection offers a comprehensive picture of James’s cross-cultural aesthetics. Building upon detailed analyses of his perception of Europe – of its people and places, its history and culture, its artists and thinkers, its aesthetics and ethics – it offers a profound re-evaluation of James’s writing
