Compare Henry James and the Writing of Race and Nation by Sara Blair, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

In this study, Blair challenges Henry James' perceived status as the literary figurehead of an impregnable high culture. Emphasizing James' engagement in forms of popular culture (including ethnography, minstrelsy, photography, and journalism), Blair traces the ways in which his writing, steeped in these forms, acted as a force in the forging of racial, national, and cultural identity. | Henry James and the Writing of Race and Nation by Sara Blair, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
