Featured article: May 19, 2006 Henry James was an  American-born author and  literary critic of the late 19th and  early 20th centuries. He spent much of his life in Europe and  became a British subject shortly before his death. He is  primarily known for novels, novellas and  short stories based on themes of consciousness. James contributed significantly to the criticism of fiction, particularly in his insistence that writers be allowed the greatest freedom possible in presenting their view of the world. His imaginative use of point of view, interior monologue and  possibly unreliable narrators in his own novels and  tales brought a new depth and  interest to narrative fiction. an  extraordinarily productive writer, he published substantive books of travel writing, biography, autobiography and  visual arts criticism.

The vertical direction indicates time and  the horizontal direction indicates distance, and  the dots on the world line are  spaced at regular proper time intervals. The diagonal lines show the particle's light cone at that time. The other dots are  random events. Animation credit: Cyp Archive - More featured pictures...
