我试图像亨利·詹姆斯那样保持冷静……他是一位伟大的作家。——海明威
他(亨利·詹姆斯)在小说史上的地位,就和莎士比亚在诗歌史上的地位一样稳固。——格雷厄姆·格林


亨利·詹姆斯在新批评派中占有举足轻重的地位,被喻为“文学大师”、西方现代小说的先驱。詹姆斯提出的“意识中心论”对后来的“意识流小说”影响巨大。中篇小说是詹姆斯偏爱的一种“优美无比的”艺术形式。他认为把丰富多彩的内容纳入少而精的形式,这是对作家的一种挑战。
Henry James plays an important role in the new criticism school, which has been hailed as the "master of literature" and the forerunner of western modern novels. James's "theory of consciousness" has great influence on the later "stream of consciousness novels". The novella is a kind of "beauty" in the form of art James preferred. He believes that the rich and colorful content into concise form, which is a challenge to the writer.


詹姆斯在他的作品中深刻的揭示了美国精神和美国生活。他早就相信文学艺术家不能光凭着镜子照射某时某地社会生活的表面,相反,作家应该运用语言艺术,挖掘人类的心理和道德本性中的最深层的东西。他认为小说不

仅仅是为读者提供娱乐的艺术形式,最好的小说应该通过展现社会生活非常复杂的过程,来启示读者的生活。
James in his works reveal the American spirit and American life. He had believed that writers and artists can't light depending on surface of mirror irradiated sometime, somewhere social life. On the contrary, the writer should use the language art, dig in human's mental and moral nature most deep things. He believed that the novel is not only the art form for the readers to provide entertainment, the best novel should show the social life is very complex process, to inspire the reader's life.

1879年中篇小说《黛西·密勒》(Daisy Miller)使他一举成名。小说描写美国姑娘黛西·密勒游历欧洲时的遭遇。她的天真浪漫、热情开朗的性格招来了许多误解和麻烦。最后客死他乡。小说将美国人的天真浪漫与欧洲人的世故奸诈进行了比较,肯詹姆斯并没有简单地肯定前者而否定后者,只是向读者
真实地展现了新美国和旧大陆之间的道德文化冲突。
1879 "Daisy Miller" to make him famous. The novel depicts the American girl Daisy Miller traveled to Europe to encounter. Her naive romantic, warm and cheerful character has attracted many misunderstandings and troubles. At last he said. The story will be the age-old cunning of American innocence romantic and Europeans were compared with Ken James was not simply affirm the former and deny the latter, just to the reader
True to show the conflict between the United States and the new moral culture of the old continent.

1881年出版的《一位女士的画像》(The Portrait of A Lady),是他早期创作中最具代表意义的作品。小说中的女主人公伊莎贝尔从美国移居英国。在一次意大利之行中,她认识了一位长期侨居欧洲的美国人,感到他趣味高雅、修养良好,就毫不犹豫地嫁给了他。婚后发现丈夫爱的是她的财产。伊莎贝尔在经过一系列痛苦的思索之后,还是决定维持和他的婚姻。小说表现了美国资产者同欧洲封建贵族相处时相互吸引又相互抵触的主题。20世纪初,处于创作后期的詹姆斯接连发表《鸽翼》、《使节》和《金碗》3部长篇小说,使他的创作达到高峰。《鸽翼》写一位英国记者为钱财追求一个患有不治之症的美国姑娘的故事。《使节》描绘一位高雅的法国女人对一个美国阔少所产生的难以抗拒的魅力。《金碗》通过一段继母与女婿私通的故事引发出了许多涉及道德问题的思索。
The Portrait of A Lady , published in 1881, is one of the most representative works in his early writing. Isabel, the heroine of the novel, moved from the United States to the United States. In a trip to Italy, she recognized the a long-term expatriate European Americans, felt he was tasteful, good cultivation, would not hesitate to marry him.

After marriage, she found that her husband was in love with her property. After a series of painful thoughts, Isabel decided to keep his marriage. The novel shows the theme of mutual attraction and conflict between American and European feudal nobles. At the beginning of the 20th century. In the late works of James published a series of, the wings of the dove, the ambassadors and the golden bowl, three novels, so that his creative peak. "Dove" wrote a British reporter for money in pursuit of a terminally ill American girl story. "Ambassadors" depicts an elegant French woman produced by an American young tycoons irresistible charm. "Golden bowl" by a stepmother and son-in-law extramarital story caused a lot of problems involving moral thinking.



《梅奇知道什么》(What Maisie Knew),美国电影,斯科特·迈克吉 、 大卫·西格尔执导。影片根据19世纪末期问世的同名小说改编而成,但将故事背景设定在了现代的纽约,以十岁小女孩梅奇(Maisie)的视点展开故事情节,这位小姑娘因为父母的离异而深感苦恼。
内容简介:苏珊娜是一个莽撞但是具有魅力的摇滚歌星,她嫁给了比尔,一个总是会心烦意乱的艺术品商人。可是,在中年危机以及外界的诱惑下,这对夫妻终于分手了。梅奇是他们唯一的孩子,成为这对离婚的男女互相牵制,不让对方走进新生活的工具。早慧的梅茜慢慢开始明白,她自私、自利、不负责任的父母是如何丑陋。可是,随着自己父母新家庭的渐渐建立,梅茜也要开始为自己在两个新家里寻找到一个合适的位置……
成年人总以自己的思维和价值观凌驾自己的孩子,认为自己给孩子的东西(通常是物质的)就一定是构筑孩子的幸福生活的基石,却忽略了亲情本身的力量。本片取名“梅奇知道”,或也正是想传达作为小孩的主观意识的抗拒。
