One of James's strangest works, The Sacred Fount, explores ideas of sexual desire and power in an English country house setting. The novel aroused considerable critical bewilderment and hostility on its original publication in 1901 but was retrieved by a subsequent generation of critics who found its ambiguity and stylistic elaboration an instance of James's 'mastery' and an early example of literary modernism. This is the first critical edition of James' landmark text and is supported by a full critical apparatus including introduction, notes, glossary, textual variants and bibliography. The volume will be of interest to researchers, scholars and advanced students of Henry James, and of nineteenth- and twentieth-century British and American fiction and literature.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eList of illustrations\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e List of abbreviations\u003cbr\u003e General editor's preface\u003cbr\u003e General chronology of James's life and writings\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e Contemporary reception of The Sacred Fount\u003cbr\u003e Textual introduction\u003cbr\u003e Chronology of composition and production\u003cbr\u003e Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e The Sacred Fount\u003cbr\u003e Glossary of foreign words and phrases\u003cbr\u003e Notes\u003cbr\u003e Textual variants\u003cbr\u003e Emendations.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Literary reference works [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary reference works\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20reference%20works%20%5BDSR%5D%22\"\u003eDSR\u003c\/a\u003e], Literary studies: fiction, novelists \u0026amp; prose writers [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: fiction, novelists \u0026amp; prose writers\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20fiction,%20novelists%20\u0026amp;%20prose%20writers%20%5BDSK%5D%22\"\u003eDSK\u003c\/a\u003e], Literary studies: from c 1900 - [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Literary studies: from c 1900 -\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Literary%20studies:%20from%20c%201900%20-%20%5BDSBH%5D%22\"\u003eDSBH\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46004420641048,"sku":"9781107032637","price":97.19,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781107032637i_044a12cd-fc9e-4b7d-97f4-c5b02c0518c1.jpg?v=1691361395","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-sacred-fount-hardback-9781107032637","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
