Autoren-Porträt von Henry James
Henry James (1843-1916) was an eminent American-born writer, revered for his contributions to nineteenth-century literature. A master of prose fiction, James explored themes of consciousness, perception, and morality, often through the lens of the international or the juxtaposition of the Old World against the New. Among his many works, 'Four Meetings' illustrates his stylistic finesse, using keen psychological insight to narrate the encounters between its characters, reflecting James' flair for understated emotional depth and social observation.Educated in the United States and Europe, James' transatlantic experiences significantly influenced his writing, leading to an extensive exploration of cosmopolitan themes. His narrative approach, particularly the employment of the 'stream of consciousness' and unreliable narrators, pioneered techniques that later authors would further develop. James' oeuvre includes notable novels such as 'The Portrait of a Lady', 'The Ambassadors', and 'The Golden Bowl', each noted for its intricate plot construction and deep character exploration. His poignant novella 'The Turn of the Screw' remains a compelling work in the ghost story genre, further showcasing his versatility as a writer. A prominent figure of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Henry James' literary achievements earned him a nomination for the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1911, 1912, and 1916, underscoring his lasting impact on English-language literature.
