 'A Henry James chronology' by Edgar F. Harden - a review by Adrian Dover
For an academic monograph to appear only some six weeks late on its originally advertised publication date is, in my experience, quite rare these days, so congratulations ought to be in order to Palgrave Macmillan on the arrival in mid-December of my pre-ordered copy of this chronology.
The octavo volume comprises a 140-page chronology of the life of Henry James, including key dates of some of his immediate ancestors; a brief who’s who of important people in his life outside of his family (11 pages); and a chronology of his publications and posthumous publications of his work (58 pages).
It is one of a series of author chronologies from the publisher, which already includes volumes for Stevenson, Wells, Shaw and Wilde, among others, and, from the same author as this James title, for Thackeray.

Lord Hertford and Henry Conway, Walpole's cousins, were also his schoolfellows; and for them he evinced throughout his long life a warm regard.
She belonged to a family dear to him, being the daughter of Field Marshal Henry Seymour Conway: then she was beautiful, witty, a courageous politician, a heroine, fearless of losing caste, by aspiring to be an artist.
'Thank God!' he wrote to his cousin Conway, 'the Thames is between me and the Duchess of Queensberry!' Walpole's dislike to his fair neighbour may partly have originated in the circumstance of her birth, and her grace's presuming to plume herself on what he deemed an unimportant distinction.

 Victorian Art
The model for this new heroic type is the goddess Diana, and I have discovered that this type, the Diana-hero, exists in scores of works throughout the literature of the Romantic era to our day.
My analysis seeks to open new vistas on the novels of Charlotte Brontë, Nathaniel Hawthorne, James Joyce, Henry James, George Eliot, and Edith Wharton, authors whose texts offer rich and complex models of the new Diana-hero.
Under careful consideration is the unique line of metaphoric development that each author undertakes with his or her Diana-hero, and the manner in which each author's original creation becomes one in the kaleidoscopic Gestalt of Diana-heroes that comes to exist in English literature.
