"Daisy Miller: A Study" by Henry James explores the complexities of social conventions and cultural clashes through the experiences of a young American woman, Daisy Miller, traveling in Europe. The novella is set in the late 19th century and begins in the Swiss town of Vevey, where Daisy meets Frederick Winterbourne, an American expatriate. Winterbourne is both charmed and perplexed by Daisy's behavior, which defies the rigid social norms of European society. Daisy's open and flirtatious manner, particularly her interactions with men, raises eyebrows among the expatriate community, including Winterbourne's aunt, Mrs. Costello, who disapproves of Daisy's conduct. As the story progresses, Daisy's actions continue to challenge societal expectations. She forms friendships with various European men, including the Italian Giovanelli, which further scandalizes the American expatriates in Rome. Winterbourne, who is both fascinated and confused by Daisy, struggles to understand her intentions and the implications of her behavior. Despite his attraction to her, he is influenced by the judgments of his social circle and questions Daisy's innocence and propriety. The novella culminates in a tragic turn of events when Daisy contracts Roman fever after a late-night visit to the Colosseum with Giovanelli. Her illness and subsequent death serve as a poignant commentary on the consequences of societal judgment and the misunderstandings that arise from cultural differences. Through Daisy's story, Henry James critiques the rigid social structures of the time and highlights the challenges faced by individuals who defy conventional norms.

Daisy Miller: A Study, In Two Parts by Henry James. The text is that of the first American appearance in book form, 1879. Daisy Miller is a novella by Henry James that first appeared in Cornhill Magazine in June-July 1878, and in book form the following year. It portrays the courtship of the beautiful American girl Daisy Miller by Winterbourne, a sophisticated compatriot of hers. His pursuit of her is hampered by her own flirtatiousness, which is frowned upon by the other expatriates when they meet in Switzerland and Italy. Annie "Daisy" Miller and Frederick Winterbourne first meet in Vevey, Switzerland, in a garden of the grand hotel, where Winterbourne is allegedly vacationing from his studies (an attachment to an older lady is rumoured). They are introduced by Randolph Miller, Daisy's nine-year-old brother. Randolph considers their hometown of Schenectady, New York, to be superior to all of Europe. Daisy, however, is absolutely delighted with the continent, especially the high society she wishes to enter.

Thoroughly revised and expanded for a new generation of readers, this classic guide to enjoying literature to its fullest—a lively, enlightening, and entertaining introduction to a diverse range of writing and literary devices that enrich these works, including symbols, themes, and contexts—teaches you how to make your everyday reading experience richer and more rewarding. While books can be enjoyed for their basic stories, there are often deeper literary meanings beneath the surface. How to Read Literature Like a Professor helps us to discover those hidden truths by looking at literature with the practiced analytical eye—and the literary codes—of a college professor. What does it mean when a protagonist is traveling along a dusty road? When he hands a drink to his companion? When he’s drenched in a sudden rain shower? Thomas C. Foster provides answers to these questions as he explores every aspect of fiction, from major themes to literary models, narrative devices, and form. Offering a broad overview of literature—a world where a road leads to a quest, a shared meal may signify a communion, and rain, whether cleansing or destructive, is never just a shower—he shows us how to make our reading experience more intellectually satisfying and fun. The world, and curricula, have changed. This third edition has been thoroughly revised to reflect those changes, and features new chapters, a new preface and epilogue, as well as fresh teaching points Foster has developed over the past decade. Foster updates the books he discusses to include more diverse, inclusive, and modern works, such as Angie Thomas’s The Hate U Give; Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven; Neil Gaiman’s Neverwhere; Elizabeth Acevedo’s The Poet X; Helen Oyeyemi's Mr. Fox and Boy, Snow, Bird; Sandra Cisneros’s The House on Mango Street; Zora Neale Hurston’s Their Eyes Were Watching God; Maggie O’Farrell’s Hamnet; Madeline Miller’s Circe; Pat Barker’s The Silence of the Girls; and Tahereh Mafi’s A Very Large Expanse of Sea.
