DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Real Thing is a short story by Henry James, first published in 1892 and the following year as the title story in the collection, The Real Thing and Other Stories. This story, often read as a parable, plays with the reality-illusion dichotomy that fascinated James, especially in the later stages of his career. For the illustrator who narrates the story, the genuine article proves all too useless for his commercial purposes. The story portrays the unfortunate victims of a society in which reality and representation are closely intertwined in ways that make art a difficult project to untangle the two. The Real Thing is, on one level, a somewhat ironic tale of an artist and two rather particular models. Yet it also raises questions about the relationship between the notion of reality in our humdrum world, and the means that an artist must use in trying to achieve, or reflect, that reality. Though the protagonist is an artist and illustrator of books, not a writer, it's not hard to imagine that James has himself, and other writers, in mind.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTHE REAL THING. I. When the porter’s wife (she used to answer the house-bell), announced “A gentleman—with a lady, sir,” I had, as I often had in those days, for the wish was father to the thought, an immediate vision of sitters. Sitters my visitors in this case proved to be; but not in the sense I should have preferred. However, there was nothing at first to indicate that they might not have come for a portrait. The gentleman, a man of fifty, very high and very straight, with a moustache slightly grizzled and a dark grey walking-coat admirably fitted, both of which I noted professionally—I don’t mean as a barber or yet as a tailor—would have struck me as a celebrity if celebrities often were striking. It was a truth of which I had for some time been conscious that a figure with a good deal of frontage was, as one might say, almost never a public institution. A glance at the lady helped to remind me of this paradoxical law: she also looked too distinguished to be a“personality.” Moreover one would scarcely come across two variations together. Neither of the pair spoke immediately—they only prolonged the preliminary gaze which suggested that each wished to give the other a chance. They were visibly shy; they stood there letting me take them in—which, as I afterwards perceived, was the most practical thing they could have done. In this way their embarrassment served their cause.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDifferentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-Henry James (New York, April 15, 1843-London, February 28, 1916) was an American writer and literary critic, nationalized British at the end of his life, who is known for his novels and stories based on the dot technique of view, which allows the psychological analysis of the characters from within. He was the son of Henry James Sr. and younger brother of the philosopher and psychologist William James. Henry, he spent a lot of time in Europe. As a writer James is considered one of the great figures of transatlantic literature. His works are often based on the juxtaposition of characters from the Old, artistic, corrupting and seductive world and the New World, where people are often sincere and open, although their nuances and variations are multiple.In his works he prefers internal and psychological drama, and alienation is a common theme of his. His early works are considered realistic, but in fact during his long literary career he maintained a keen interest in a variety of artistic movements. His works have been adapted into film many times by directors such as William Wyler (The Heiress, adaptation of the novel Washington Square).
