	Battle of Aspern-Essling - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The battle began at Aspern; Hiller carried the village at the first rush, but Masséna recaptured it, and held his ground with the same tenacity as be had shown at Marengo in 1800.
		Aspern had been lost, and the news reached Napoleon at the critical moment.
		The Löwe von Aspern (Lion of Aspern) is a monument commemorating the battle.

		As James points out in the "The Aspern Papers," his society was living in the dawn of "the age of newspapers and telegrams and photographs and interviews," and he wonders how any incident in a famous person's life can be kept "quiet" with so many intrusive forces at work.
		She was not only one of the major loves of Aspern's life but also the inspiration behind some of his best poems, and yet she has chosen to reveal nothing about herself to the public.
		If Aspern had been a small-town lawyer or a coal merchant or a grocer, there would be little justification for laying siege to an old lover in the hope of carting away love letters and portraits.

		In The Aspern Papers (1888), an unscrupulous critic is hunting for the papers of the late Jeffrey Aspern, former lover of the ancient, aloof and imperious Miss Juliana Bordereau.
		The nameless narrator of 'The Aspern Papers' is one of the greatest monsters in James' teeming gallery of inglorious masculinity - the editor of a revered American literary poet, who tries to wheedle important documents from a celebrated lover, the now-decrepit Juliana, by installing himself as a lodger, and flattering her aging spinster niece.
		But if 'Aspern' is a crime story, than the the criminal is of the order of Freddie Montgomery in Banville's 'The Book of Evidence', a brilliant, charming, frighteningly amoral man, whose check of social scruples is dicarded with shocking ease.

	E. A. Poe Society of Baltimore
		The reader's estimation of Aspern is ultimately determined by his conception [column 2:] of the narrator's function; whether he provides an essentially straightforward view of the past (as Wayne Booth has said) (5), or whether his attitude toward Aspern and the papers reveals the same ineluctable self-deception that typifies his dealings with Juliana Bordereau.
		The etymology of Aspern's name may offer a clue to James's underlying attitude toward his fictional poet, for it is actually an archaic form of the verb "to spurn" (7).
		In the figure of Jeffrey Aspern, James manifests his rejection of his culturally barren native land; through the ironically inflated statements of the narrator, he in effect satirizes the poet whose muse "was essentially American." And this poet, the narrator makes clear, is the best America has to offer.

	The Aspern Papers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Aspern Papers is a novella written by Henry James, originally published in The Atlantic Monthly in 1888, with its first book publication later in the same year.
		So it's not surprising that James paints the nameless narrator of The Aspern Papers as, in Juliana's words, a "publishing scoundrel." And yet he also generates sneaking sympathy for the narrator as he tries to work the papers loose from Juliana, who is presented as greedy, domineering and unappealing.
		In 1962, The Aspern Papers was adapted for the stage by Michael Redgrave and successfully produced on Broadway.

		James had such a deep feeling for the ornate social niceties of his day that he was able to poke fun of them while still respecting their essential decency--he seemed to understand the greed and brutality they kept in check.
		The four stories "The Aspern Papers", "The Middle Years" and "The Death of the Lion" revolve around the extreme devotation of a reader and their relationship with the author.
		Add to this the "ghost" of Jeffrey Aspern, who seems to be present around every corner, and what James has produced is a suspenseful tale of warped values, shady dealings, and the corruption of "the innocents".

	The Aspern Papers
		Every one of Aspern's contemporaries had, according to our belief, passed away; we had not been able to look into a single pair of eyes into which his had looked or to feel a transmitted contact in any aged hand that his had touched.
		She did indeed, the gentle spinster, but not quite so far as Jeffrey Aspern, who was simply hearsay to her, quite as he was to me. Only she had lived for years with Juliana, she had seen and handled the papers and (even though she was stupid) some esoteric knowledge had rubbed off on her.
		Aspern had of course met the young lady when he went to her father's studio as a sitter.

	The Aspern Papers by Henry James
		Jeffrey Aspern had never been in it that I knew of; but some note of his voice seemed to abide there by a roundabout implication, a faint reverberation.
		As we went, however, in her gondola, gliding there under the sociable hood with the bright Venetian picture framed on either side by the movable window, I could see that she was amused by my infatuation, the way my interest in the papers had become a fixed idea.
		Nonetheless she was very far advanced in life, and her relations with Jeffrey Aspern had occurred in her early womanhood.

	Henry James's The Aspern Papers :: The Compulsive Reader :: A Haven for Book Lovers
		There is a considerable body of modern literature dealing with the ambiguity of the artist in his social and moral character, and in a sense this is the implicit theme of "The Aspern Papers." The position of the lodger — "the publishing scoundrel"— is a position at only one remove from that of the artist-type.
		"The Aspern Papers" was of the 1880s; "The Turn of the Screw" the 1890s; and "The Beast of the Jungle" the first decade of the past century.
		William Goetz uses "The Aspern Papers" as an example of what he terms James's "parables of art," which portray the standard relationship between the young narrator and the established master, but also postulate a doppelganger in order to illustrate a typical thematic tension between the demands of life and art.

	Powell's Books - Aspern Papers (Dover Juvenile Classics) by Henry James
		With a decaying Venetian villa for a backdrop, the anonymous narrator relates his obsessive quest for the personal documents of a deceased Romantic poet, one Jeffrey Aspern.
		The narrator's zeal to possess the poet's papers leads him into increasingly unscrupulous behavior, from assuming a false identity to outright theft, and he is ultimately faced with a choice between relinquishing his heart's desire and achieving it at an overwhelming price.
		Inspired by an actual incident involving Claire Clairmont, once the mistress of Lord Byron, this masterly tale features all those elements we expect from James: psychological subtlety; deft plotting; the clash of cultures; and the nuances of scene, mood, and character that signify deeper meanings beneath.
