Constance Fenimore Woolson

    5 marzo 1840 – 24 gennaio 1894

    Constance Fenimore Woolson creò narrazioni profondamente radicate nei colori regionali del Midwest e del Sud americano prima di rivolgere la sua attenzione alla vita degli espatriati americani in Europa. Il suo stile distintivo e il suo profondo interesse per la psicologia dei personaggi sono rimasti coerenti durante tutta la sua carriera letteraria. I racconti di Woolson sono celebrati come opere pionieristiche del regionalismo americano, mentre i suoi romanzi e saggi continuano ad essere studiati oggi attraverso diverse lenti critiche, comprese le prospettive femministe e postcoloniali.

      The Old Stone House
    • Bevor sie Henry James kennenlernte, schrieb Constance Fenimore Woolson eine ihrer rätselhaftesten Erzählungen, Fräulein Kummer, die in Rom spielt und in der sie die Begegnung zwischen einem Doppelgänger Henry James', einem jungen, selbstgefälligen Schriftsteller und einem Abbild ihrer selbst als verarmte und so talentierte wie verkannte Autorin, literarisch vorwegnahm. Fräulein Kummer ist eine erschütternde Lektüre, die vorausschauend das tragische Ende Woolsons erzählt.
