The editor has meticulously prepared a list of textual variants to facilitate comparative reading of the novel. Nina Baym, F. O. Matthiessen, and Anthony J. Mazzella provide differing interpretations of James's revision process.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHenry James and the Novel culls autobiographical excerpts from James's other writings-his Notebooks, the intentionally autobiographical A Small Boy and Others and Notes of a Son and Brother, and the travel books Italy Revisited, A Roman Holiday, and Roman Rides.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContemporary Reviews and Criticism provides both chronological and critical perspective on The Portrait of a Lady.
