Unas notas sobre la cuestión femenina en Henry James: Tres personalidades, una postura.

Estudio sobre la cuestión femenina en la literatura de Henry James. En varias de las novelas de James aparece un personaje, casi siempre una figura femenina que atrae nuestra atención, nos fascina y nos hace participar en su trayectoria vital, tomando partido ante sus actitudes o sus errores y dejándonos defraudados o entristecidos ante el final de una historia, que puede ser dramático o ser un final sin respuesta. Se analizan a continuación algunos de los rasgos de tres heroínas de James: lsabel, de The portrait of a Lady, del año 1881; Verena, de The Bostoniano, de 1886; y Milly, de The wings of the dove, del año 1902. Se destaca la fuerza de sus respectivas personalidades y el hecho de que James las situase en un contexto absolutamente cerrado y alejado de los acontecimientos políticos. En James hay poca acción, pero hay una deliberada descripción de rasgos y tipos americanos. Sin embargo, sus personajes masculinos son menos convincentes y con frecuencia menos atractivos. Pero las protagonistas de James, por una razón u otra, no pueden elegir un destino de libertad y de plenitud de vida. Muy raramente aparece la pasión y casi nunca el amor físico. Todo sucede en el cerebro y en el corazón de los personajes.
