Lesson Topic
Daisy Miller
Lesson Outline
I continue to highlight textual examples evidencing the central question of the novel: Is Daisy a flirt, an ingenuous innocent, or a true rebel when she defies the strict social norms of polite society that define a woman's role . We then discussed the irony of Daisy loitering beneath the famous Vasquez painting of Pope Innocent X who also was reputed to be less than innocent. As James' literary technique serves as a forerunner of the stream of consciousness narrative of Joyce and Wolfe, I pointed out how James' reveals a character's consciousness even in the absence of the character speaking or undertaking any outward actions.
