MP3 Audio CD. Henry James?s essay is one of the most influential narratives on the theory of the novel. The Art of Fiction analyzes the state of genre in his lifetime and precisely awaits its increase in the time to come.James creates his essay as an exclusive and artistic genre and pointed out its important morals for analytic disparagement. The novel was regarded as secondary and an ineligible literature, but his articles were considered as best at light entertainment and worst in catering to delusion and depravity.The inspiration for his essay was the lecture, ?Fiction as One of the Fine Arts? by Walter Besant, a novelist-historian. The lecture was published as an essay with the title ?The Art of Fiction?. James came across it and he made an essay as his rebuttal creating the same title as of Besant?s. Eventually, the essays of Besant and James were published as one.Besant?s article contains three main grounds. Firstly, the narrative of fiction is a fine art and has to be appreciated with the arts… Read More

MP3 Audio CD. The Art of Fiction I should not have affixed so comprehensive a title to these few remarks, necessarily wanting in any completeness, upon a subject the full consideration of which would carry us far, did I not seem to discover a pretext for my temerity in the interesting pamphlet lately published under this name by Mr. Walter Besant. Mr. Besant's lecture at the Royal Institution--the original form of his pamphlet--appears to indicate that many persons are interested in the art of fiction and are not indifferent to such remarks as those who practise it may attempt to make about it. I am therefore anxious not to lose the benefit of this favourable association, and to edge in a few words under cover of the attention which Mr. Besant is sure to have excited. There is something very encouraging in his having put into form certain of his ideas on the mystery of story-telling. It is a proof of life and curiosity--curiosity on the part of the brotherhood of novelists, as well as on the part… Read More

Lulu.com, 2018-08-17. paperback. New. 5x0x9. Brand New Book in Publishers original Sealing

Paperback / softback. New. World-renowned novelist and short story author Henry James offers practical advice and considerable insight on what makes quality fiction, and how good writers can create it. A common theme seen in Henry James' works is contrasting the naivete and untrammeled freedom of the New World with the knowledgeable but corrupt nature of Europe and the Old World. Beginning with short stories while in his 20s, James quickly gained a reputation as a skilled wordsmith and compelling narrator. His innovative style was emblematic of new forms of penmanship which partly displaced and partly accentuated the prevalent Romantic and Victorian literary forms. Much of Henry James teaching contains his opinions on the nature and purpose of fiction. His theories about what a novel should present - as entertainment, as art, and as a reflection upon the author - offer readers thoughtful and informed analysis of creative writing.
