Write a minimum of 250 words regarding the following:
1. In his essay, The Art of Fiction (1884), Henry James writes that [t]he only reason for the existence of a novel is that it does compete with life
.in other words, that it reflects reality. Daisy Miller, while compact, is full of detail and social commentary. After reading the novel and looking at the brief Powerpoint about the characteristics of American Literary Realism posted in the Week 4 Module (AMERICAN LITERARY REALISM), please share your thoughts:
Connect: Each of the slides in the Powerpoint refers to a characteristic of American Literary Realism. Apply 2 of those characteristics to the text. Use at least one line or passage from the book for support of each characteristic that you choose; include page number(s) if available.
Ponder: Language in 19th-century novelseven those that are American in origincan sound a bit foreign to our ear. How do you feel about the diction in Daisy Miller? How does it affect your reading of the novel?
