Daisy Miller: A Study
Sinossi
Daisy Miller: A Study is a novella by Henry James, published in 1878. It centers on Daisy Miller, a beautiful American woman whose encounters with Frederick Winterbourne, a sophisticated expatriate, capture both attention and controversy. Their meetings take place in Switzerland and Italy, where Daisy’s free-spirited, flirtatious manner comes into conflict with rigid European social conventions. As her behavior draws scrutiny from the American expatriate community, Daisy becomes increasingly close to a questionable Italian suitor. Winterbourne must navigate his attraction to Daisy alongside the disapproval surrounding her, while the narrative examines cultural prejudices and the meaning behind her unconventional conduct.
