Two world famous brothers William and Henry James was born in 1842 and 1843 in a wealthy American home. The elder became psychologist of religion magasin di and the other one came to get the utmost importance for the development of the modern art of the novel. Washington Square magasin di first came out as a magazine magasin di serial in 1880 and the following year in one piece. Henry James'antihjältinna, Catherine Sloper, is a humble girl and of her father, the doctor Austin Sloper regarded as stupid and unintelligent - but nevertheless - an heiress. Aunt Lavinia lives in the house to help with Catherine's magasin di upbringing as the beautiful and talented mother died at Catherine's birth. To everyone's undisguised astonishment revealed a charming suitor, Morris Townsend. He's handsome magasin di as a god, but has the bad taste to lack funds, which is very inappropriate at this time in this class of society. It does not help a couple of fresh arms. Doctor Sloper pulls out and takes her daughter on a one-year tour of Europe. Of no avail. When they come home, all unchanged. It will be a tough position war (on the inner plane, of course!) Between father and daughter. Aunt Lavinia act as messengers magasin di between Catherine and Morris. The environment is really concentrated in the small auditorium at Washington Square. The cast is limited to four. The time is 1800 - century. The author makes common cause with the reader; "I" telling and talking about "we" and "our". Doctor Sloper is ironic, sarcastic and adamant in their opinions. Catherine may seem manageable but is restrained next to petrification and no less fierce. Aunt Lavinia is a meddlesome, romantic childless widow busybody. And Morris Townsend - well, what is one to make of him? From the start, we know exactly. Towards the end wavers one. After all. Henry James (1843 - 1916) is not convincing at least on the psychological level. The end will surprise; changes and sheds new light on the history. magasin di Henry James is also a great stylist. 1997 was filmed Washington Square with Albert Finney as Dr. Sloper and Jennifre Jason Lee, Catherine. Ben Chaplin played Morris Townsend Read on HERE
