ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Henry James
Henry James (1843-1916), nasceu em Nova Iorque, nos Estados Unidos, numa família de intelectuais. Filho do teólogo Henry James Sr e irmão do filósofo-psicólogo William James, foi um dos mais reconhecidos autores de finais do século XIX e princípios do século XX. Na sua juventude viajou basntante entre a Europa e a América, estudando com professores de Geneva, Londres, Bolonha, Paris, chegando mesmo a frequentar por um período breve a Harvard Law School. Passou assim a maior parte da vida na Europa dedicando-se à escrita de vários géneros como romances, contos, crítica literária e artística, literatura de viagens, biografia e autobiografia. Analisava o mundo tendo em conta conceitos base como a liberdade, o monólogo interior e o drama psicológico, abordando histórias de fantasmas onde explorava a ténue fronteira entre o sobrenatural e as áreas mais recônditas da mente humana. Das suas inúmeras obras notabilizaram-se Retrato de Uma Senhora, Os Europeus,O Mentiroso e Daisy Miller, entre outras.
