James's fiction is generally considered difficult and part of high culture, more appropriate for classroom study than popular appreciation. However, this volume focuses on the adaptation of his novels, including some of his most complex, into films, challenging us to understand James's popular reputation today on both sides of the Atlantic. The book offers two explanations for his persistent influence: James's literary ambiguity and his reliance on popular culture. "Part I: His Times" considers James's reliance on sentimental literature and theatrical melodrama in Daisy Miller, Guy Domville, The Awkward Age, and several of his lesser-known short stories ("Adina," "Collaboration," "The Velvet Glove"). Sentimentalism and melodrama were particularly concerned with changing gender roles and sexual identity in James's era, albeit not always in progressive ways. "Part II: Our Times" focuses on how James's considerations of these changing gender roles and sexual identities have influenced such Hollywood representations of emancipated women as Hitchcock's Rear Window, Peter Bogdanovich's The Last Picture Show, Daisy Miller, and They All Laughed, and films adaptations of James's novels in the 1990s. Recent fiction by James Baldwin, Leslie Marmon Silko, Philip Roth, Jonathan Franzen, Cynthia Ozick, and Colm ToÌibiÌn also treat Jamesian notions of gender and sexuality while considering his part in contemporary debates about globalization and cosmopolitanism. Both a study of James's works and a broad range of contemporary film and fiction, Our Henry James demonstrates the continuing relevance of Henry James to our multimedia, interdisciplinary, globalized culture"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a James, Henry, $d 1843-1916 $v Film adaptations. 650 0 $a American fiction $v Film adaptations. $0 https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010002321 600 10 $a James, Henry, $d 1843-1916 $v Adaptations. 650 0 $a Film adaptations $x History and criticism. $0 https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008103719 600 10 $a James, Henry, $d 1843-1916 $x Influence. 655 7 $a Film adaptations. $2 lcgft $0 https://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2011026254 655 7 $a Adaptations. $2 lcgft $0 https://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026041 776 08 $i Online version: $a Carlos Rowe, John. $t Our Henry James in fiction, film, and popular culture $d New York : Routledge, 2022 $z 9781003297987 $w (DLC) 2022002876 830 0 $a Routledge studies in twentieth-century literature. $0 https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2005030310 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230302020741.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=95126E9072D911EDA0B05B7C49ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
