Synopsis

Henry James’s Daisy Miller was an immediate sensation when it was first published in 1878 and has remained popular ever since. In this novella, the charming but inscrutable young American of the title shocks European society with her casual indifference to its social mores. The novella was popular in part because of the debates it sparked about foreign travel, the behaviour of women, and cultural clashes between people of different nationalities and social classes.

This Broadview edition presents an early version of James’s best-known novella within the cultural contexts of its day. In addition to primary materials about nineteenth-century womanhood, foreign travel, medicine, philosophy, theatre, and art―some of the topics that interested James as he was writing the story―this volume includes James’s ruminations on fiction, theatre, and writing, and presents excerpts of Daisy Miller as he rewrote it for the theatre and for a much later and heavily revised edition.

Review

“Everything about this edition commends it to instructors, students, and general readers alike. Kristin Boudreau’s authoritative introduction provides an excellent orientation, no less for seasoned scholars than for students discovering Henry James. The text of the novella is well chosen―the 1879 Harper edition, capturing the freshness of James’s early style (as opposed to the ornate 1909 revision), but with the benefit of James’s revisions of the first magazine and book versions. Twelve appendices offer contemporary materials that cast strong and helpful lights on key aspects of James’s art and of the literary and cultural contexts of this early masterpiece.” ― Daniel Mark Fogel, University of Vermont

“Kristin Boudreau’s fascinating and accessible introduction sets James’s Daisy Miller in biographical, literary, historical, philosophical―and even medical―context. Appendices provide ample and well-chosen primary material, including selections focused on the nineteenth-century New Woman; the prevalence and treatment of ‘Roman fever’; and James’s literary and artistic influences, aims, and revisions. Anyone teaching James’s popular novella will find Broadview’s new edition a superb resource.” ― Linda Simon, Skidmore College
