- W43131447 abstract "Writing of Emerson in 1887, Henry James noted that great dis? tinction and his special sign lay in fact that had a more vivid conception of life than any one else. But James went on to say that owed it in part to limited way in which he saw our capacity for living illustrated. The limitation to which James refers is terri? ble paucity of alternatives1 of Emerson's New England upbringing, a limitation that, perhaps in some version of Emersonian compensation, gave him the special capacity for experience?always that and only that.2 Emerson would have surely protested James's separation of moral from other aspects of life, and this same dichotomy may also puzzle reader of James's later novels, which persistently address central question of how we ought to live. His somewhat puz? zled admission of Emerson's greatness, despite what James felt was a failure in form, is a significant indication of James's own increasing concern with life which took memorable form in great novels of his later period. The conclusion of The Ambassadors, which charts growth of Lambert Strether, another New Englander starved in every aspect of life except moral, is a case in point. Even while Strether explains to Maria Gostrey his reasons for returning to New England in final scene, he is discovering those motivations himself:" @default.
