Portraying the Lady: Technologies of Gender in the Short Stories of Henry James
Donatella Izzo
From Isabel Archer to Maisie to Daisy Miller, female characters dominated work of Henry James. Exposing James' texts as registers of women's roles during the Victorian-Edwardian era, this book absolves him of complicity in perpetuating such gender stereotypes, while it demonstrates how those stereotypes operated to control women's activities.
