講義内容
Henry James is a master storyteller; as we read, let’s appreciate both the drama of this novella, and its beautiful setting of Venice in summertime. Former members of this class can look forward to continuing our lively discussions. New members: we are eager to hear your comments and opinions. Possible topics for discussion could include Venice as the inspiration and setting for literature, music, art and films; aesthetics; morality; the literary achievements of Henry James; literary themes, such as romance and suspense; the cult of the celebrity; and cosmopolitanism and the migration patterns of writers and artists. You are of course welcome to suggest other topics!
