Subjects: James Henry 1843–1916 -- Criticism and interpretation; Women in literature;

Walton challenges such limited readings by opening up the texts to interpretation and tracing the ways in which the narratives resist closure. She contends that in James's texts the representations of women foreground their limitations that Realist Masculine referentiality has placed on both the Feminine text and the female characters.
