The Cambridge Edition of the Complete Fiction of Henry James
provides, for the first time, a scholarly edition of a major writer
whose work continues to be read, quoted, adapted and studied.
Published in two volumes in 1880, Washington Square dramatises the
plight of Catherine Sloper, a rich heiress, whose father, a
successful doctor, identifies her one suitor, Morris Townsend, as a
fortune-hunter. The novel thus draws on the sentimental tradition,
which it develops with subtle, sympathetic irony, in a realist
direction. This edition is the first to provide a full account of
the context in which the book was composed and received, and to
include the original illustrations by Punch-cartoonist George Du
Maurier. Extensive explanatory notes enable modern readers to
understand its nuanced historical, cultural and literary
references, and its complex textual history.
