Annotation: Drawing on Henry James's reputation as a master of modern literature, John Carlos Rowe investigates the way in which various theoretical approaches formulate different conceptions of the "major author." Rowe examines James from the perspectives of the psychology of literary influence, feminism, Marxism, psychoanalysis, literary phenomenology and impressionism, and reader-response criticism, thereby transforming a literay monument into the telling point of intersectino for modern critical theories. Rowe's intertextual method clarifies James's relation to contemporary criticism and his significance in the social history of early modernism.
