Daisy Miller is one of Henry James's most attractive heroines: she represents youth and frivolity. As a tourist in Italy, her American freedom and freshness of spirit come up against the corruption and hypocrisy of European manners. From its first publication, readers on both sides of the Atlantic have quarrelled about her, defending or attacking the liberties that Daisy takes and the conventions that she ignores. All three tales in this collection, Daisy Miller, An International Episode and Lady Barbarina, express James's most notable subject, 'the international theme', the encounters, romantic and cultural, between Americans and Europeans. His heroes and heroines approach each other on unfamiliar ground with new freedoms, yet find themselves unexpectedly hampered by old constraints. In An International Episode, an English lord visiting Newport, Rhode Island, falls in love with an American girl, but their relationship becomes more complicated when she travels to London. In the light-hearted comedy Lady Barbarina, a rich young American seeks an English aristocratic bride. The unusual outcomes of these three tales pose a number of social questions about marriage and the traditional roles of men and women. Is an international marriage symbolic of the highest cultural fusion of values or is it an old style raid and capture? Is marriage to remain the feminine destination?
亨利·詹姆斯(1843—1916),現代小說大師,世界文學史上最重要的小說傢之一。他齣身於紐約上層知識分子傢庭,父親和兄長均是著名學者和哲學傢。他從小接受良好的教育,大學畢業後,便長期旅居歐洲,對19世紀末美國和歐洲的上層生活有細緻入微的觀察。古老保守的歐洲和年輕質樸的美國這兩種不同文化和價值體係間的衝突是他諸多作品的重要主題之一。他的小說風格獨特,語言精妙,技巧嫻熟,他還是心理小說創始人。詹姆斯一生創作瞭許多作品,其中最具代錶性的有《黛西·米勒》、《一位女士的畫像》,《螺絲在擰緊》、《鴿翼》、《使節》、《金碗》等。

評分Lady Barbarina finished. Sharp contrast between America and Europe.
評分April Daisy, with her youth and innocence, tried to show November Winterbourne the courage of having her own way.
評分質疑自己是否學過英語?但安慰說畢竟是亨利詹姆斯,下次先試水簡單點的作者吧。
評分注:隻讀瞭Daisy Miller,另外兩篇也不準備補瞭。這樣的小姑娘擱今天也會被說三道四,哎。
巫宁坤翻译的部分确有生硬之感,但这本书在整体上还是不错的。 像亨利·詹姆斯这样的作家,国内至今仍没有一套全集,对读者而言实为一个不小的憾事!
評分Henry•James,亨利•詹姆斯,被称为现代小说大师,心理小说创始人,虽然出生于纽约上层知识分子家庭,但长期旅居欧洲,所以他的很多作品的主题都是古老保守的欧洲和年轻激情的美国之间的这两种不同文化和价值体系的间的冲突。我刚读完的这本是由黛西•米勒,螺丝在拧紧...

評分 評分她在这个世界上行走从不束手束脚。她走自己要走的路。 对戴西米勒小姐而言,绽放是她的关键词。她要尽一切努力享受生命的愉悦。她不在意那些在她背后指指点点的目光,她也不在乎城里蔓延的瘟疫。人生总是有危险,坐在家里并且恪守所有人的准则似乎是最让那群围观者满意的做法。...
