Notă biografică
Henry James (1843 - 1916) was an American-born British writer. He is regarded as one of the key figures of 19th-century literary realism. He was the son of Henry James, Sr. and the brother of philosopher and psychologist William James and diarist Alice James. He is best known for a number of novels showing Americans encountering Europe and Europeans. His method of writing from a character's point of view allowed him to explore issues related to consciousness and perception, and his style in later works has been compared to impressionist painting. His imaginative use of point of view, interior monologue and unreliable narrators brought a new depth to narrative fiction.

Recenzii
'… Collister's The American Scene is furnished with abundant resources in terms of its critical apparatus and annotations, far outstripping those included in previous editions of the text. These do rigorous work historicising James' text, linking the incidents of the travelogue to the events of James' own journey, offering insight into the relationship between life and art … Of added interest to [the] scholarly community … will be Collister's collations of variants on the basis of the galley proofs for the chapter on 'New England', held today at the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Yale … Collister's introduction is masterful and authoritative, and very useful is his inclusion of an itinerary of James' American journey, as are his appendices … Collister's The American Scene is an excellent edition, which will hopefully provide the text with a new readership.'
