Daisy Miller

CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, 2016. Paperback. Pp: 50. Daisy Miller: A Study. In Two Parts by Henry James. The Original and Complete Version. Annie "Daisy" Miller and Frederick Winterbourne first meet in Vevey, Switzerland, in a garden of the grand hotel where Winterbourne is allegedly vacationing from his studies (an attachment to an older lady is rumoured). They are introduced by Randolph Miller, Daisy's 9-year-old brother. Randolph considers their hometown of Schenectady, New York, to be absolutely superior to all of Europe. Daisy, however, is absolutely delighted with the continent, especially the high society she wishes to enter.Winterbourne is at first confused by her attitude, and though greatly impressed by her beauty, he soon determines that she is nothing more than a young flirt. He continues his pursuit of Daisy in spite of the disapproval of his aunt, Mrs. Costello, who spurns any family with so close a relationship to their courier as the Millers have with their Eugenio. She also thinks Daisy is a shameless girl for agreeing to visit the Ch�teau de Chillon with Winterbourne after they have known each other for only half an hour. The next day, the two travel to Ch�teau de Chillon and although Winterbourne had paid the janitor for privacy, Daisy is not quite impressed. Winterbourne then informs Daisy that he must go to Geneva the next day. Daisy feels disappointment and chaffs him, eventually asking him to visit her in Rome later that year. ISBN: 9781534779020.

James Henry Rubin 215817

Manet's Silence and the Poetics of Bouquets

Harvard University Press, 1995. Paperback. Pp: 256. A sense of stillness and silence pervades Manet's painting. His flattened, sometimes fragmented forms appear to exist absentmindedly in a world removed from speech. It is this silence that James Rubin explores in a book that shows us Manet as we see him-naturally, in pictures that articulated their own purely visual terms. In such a sense, this book is about the restoration of the visual to its primacy in art through Manet's painting. While insisting that Manet's pictures must be given the first and final say in any interpretation, Rubin uses contradictory views of the painter's works-from the present and past-as a context for approaching them. Applying J.L. Austin's notion of the performative, which bridges the gap between language and action or between the painted image and its social effect, Rubin goes beyond past theorists to describe the curious ways in which Manet's paintings act upon us. With these ideas as his guide, he takes us through Manet's work, pointing out the element that are distinctive and consistent, particularly the painter's reliance on a pattern of gazes and the "unique state of undecidability" that this strategy produces. Rubin also examines Manet's relatioship to three of the leading critics of his day-Baudelaire, Zola, and Mallarmé-giving special attention to Mallarmé's appreciation, and eventual use in his poetry, of the paradox between immersion and externality in Manet's oeuvre. Finally, the book uses the image of the bouquet to exemplify Manet's creative poetics through an exploration of his still life. Filled with revealing insights into Manet's achievevment, this sensitive, informed, and clearly written book goes a long way toward explaining why Manet's paintings continue to fascinate and elude us more than one hundred years after the artist's death.

De moeilijke jaren

Athenaeum. Paperback. Pp: 432. Behalve schrijver was Kellendonk begenadigd vertaler en pleitbezorger van enkele Angelsaksische schrijvers zoals Laurence Sterne, Thomas de Quincey en vooral Henry James. In een brief aan Johan Polak schreef hij: - James is een moeilijk auteur en vertaling van zijn werk is een noodzaak, wil hij ook in Nederland genoten kunnen worden. Zijn proza is minstens zo complex als dat van Proust.` In een brief aan A.F.Th. van der Heijden benadrukte hij dat hij aan de kant van Henry James staat in zijn literatuuroapvatting, en elders dat zijn waardering voor James berust op - zijn realisme, of liever: zijn speciale opvatting ervan`. Kellendonks vertaling van De moeilijke jaren verscheen oorspronkelijk in 1981 en beschrijft in tien hoofdstukken, elk genoemd naar een van de hoofdfiguren, tien belangrijke gebeurtenissen rondom Nanda Brookenham, een tienermeisje dat - aan de man` moet komen aan het eind van de negentiende eeuw.
