Henry James left America in 1875 for the sake of his art and for
the rich cultural heritage of Europe. His return in the late summer
of 1904, based on both romantic and practical motives, allowed him
to revisit the now-transformed cities of his youth as well as to
experience for the first time the country's southern states. The
American Scene is a major work from James' final, most adventurous
creative phase and offers a cultural and social critique of
contemporary American society as well as a personal series of
'gathered impressions', a form of indirect yet sometimes intimate
autobiography. This new edition includes detailed explanatory
notes, a general introduction, a chronology, an itinerary of James'
journey, a record of textual variants and rare manuscript material,
appendices which include the journal James kept, texts for the two
lectures he gave, and two additional essays written on his return
to England.
