Henry James, the American-born writer who chose to live in Europe,
settled in London and Rye, becoming a British subject in 1915. He
occupies a major position as a dedicated artist and cultural
historian who combined the strengths of American, English and
French nineteenth-century literary traditions with the aesthetic
innovations that paved the way for modern and postmodern fiction.
The rare subtlety and intensity of his writings can be fully
appreciated only through the responses of perceptive readers beyond
the English-speaking world. This collection of essays, prepared by
an international team of scholars and translators, examines the
ways in which James was translated, published and reviewed on the
Continent of Europe, notably in France, Italy and Germany, but also
in most of the languages of Northern, Southern and Eastern Europe.
Some specific contributions are devoted to the strikingly original
cinematic and operatic adaptations of Henry James's works.
