ヘンリー・ジェイムズと同性愛については、イヴ・コゾフスキー・セジウィック著『クローゼットの認識論』に中の「クローゼットの野獣 ヘンリー・ジェイムズとホモセクシュアル・パニックの書」という優れた論説があるが、他にもジェイムズのセクシュアリティに関する書籍があるようなのでメモしておきたい。

'Henry James and Queer Modernity is inspired and essential for the way it makes James's sexuality not only a positive part of his signature aesthetic but a source of trenchant cultural critique beyond what we normally expect from him ... offers up an important theory of the relations among art, sex and politics.'

Henry James remained throughout his life focused on his boyhood and early manhood, and correspondingly on younger boys and men, and John R. Bradley illustrates how it is in the context of such narcissism that James consistently dealt with male desire in his fiction. He also traces a more subtle but related trajectory in James's writing from a Classical to a Modernist gay discourse, which in turn is shown to have been paralleled by a shift in James's fiction from naturalistic beginnings to later stylistic evasion and obscurity.

This collection of essays represents the first book to explore the complex influence of homosexuality on the life and fiction of Henry James. An extensive biographical introduction is complemented by an essay documenting James' friendships with younger men, which includes quotations from unpublished letters. Other subjects include the influence on James of the emergence of a specific concept of the homosexual in Victorian England and James' reactions to the aesthetic movement.
それとセクシュアリティとは直接関係ないが、上記の”Henry James and Homo-Erotic Desire”と”Henry James's Permanent Adolescence”の著者 John R. Bradley によるジェイムズの舞台と映画に関する”Henry James on Stage and Screen”は興味を惹く。
