End William Dean Howells W. D. Howells produced many novels, stories, plays, and poems in his long life. He served as the editor of Atlantic Monthly and Harper's magazines, and as the "dean" of late 19th-century American literature introduced realism and naturalism, both by his own writings and by encouraging many others from Henry James to Bret Harte and Frank Norris to Mark Twain. He supported socialism and opposed American imperialism. Please visit the William Dean Howells Society web page and join the Society and the HOWELLS-L discussion list.

4. William Dean Howells (1837-1920) Teaching guide to Howells, including major themes, historical perspectives, and significance of form and original audience. http://www.hmco.com/college/english/heath/syllabuild/iguide/howells.html

William Dean Howells (1837-1920) Contributing Editor: John W. Crowley Classroom Issues and Strategies Students are usually unfamiliar with Howells and his central position in nineteenth-century American literature. If they have heard of him at all, they are likely to have picked up the (still) prevailing stereotype: that Howells was a genteel prude whose realism could not possibly be of any interest to contemporary readers. Another problem is that students are not often sensitive to quiet irony in what they read; they are not prepared to hear the subtle nuances in Howells's narrative voiceor to read between the lines in his treatment of sexuality, which he handled with Victorian decorum but did not avoid as a subject. It is useful to tell students about the history of Howells's literary reputation: his contemporary fame, his fall from grace during the 1920s, his currently anomalous position in the canon. Students are usually pleasantly surprised by Howells, in part because his prose is not "difficult" (like James's ) and because they find more complexity than they had expected. It is best to start, perhaps, with the "Editor's Easy Chair" selection, which introduces students to his characteristic tone and prepares them to recognize his use of the dramatic method in the fiction: the apparent (but only apparent) narrative detachment, the embodiment of themes in the characters' dialogue and interactions.

At no period in its history did American literary culture have so widely acknowledged a spokesman as in those decades from the 1870s to 1920 when Howells edited literary journals and championed realism in critical essays and the novels he produced at the rate of almost one a year. He discovered and promoted young writers as different as Hamlin Garland, Stephen Crane, Paul Laurence Dunbar, and Abraham Cahan. He also created an American readership for such European masters as Émile Zola and Leo Tolstoy and served as valued adviser and friend to Mark Twain and Henry James. Among other things, it was he who suggested a way out of the impasse that had caused Twain to put Huckleberry Finn aside and it was he who published the work of the young James and served as the model for the mature James's characterization of Lambert Strether in The Ambassadors.

Entries Publication Data Dedication Advisory Board ... World Civilizations The Great American History Fact-Finder Howells, William Dean , novelist, critic, and editor. Howells's campaign biography Life of Lincoln earned him an appointment from Abraham Lincoln as U.S. consul in Venice, where he lived until 1865 and wrote the first of many travel books, Venetian Life . In 1866 he became a member of the staff of the Atlantic , serving as editor in chief from 1871 until 1881. He exerted a strong influence on the development of realism in American literature, promoting such writers as Henry James and Mark Twain . After 1882 he devoted himself to writing fiction, publishing the realistic novels A Modern Instance and The Rise of Silas Lapham , two of his major achievements. Howells's open denunciation in 1887 of the judicial murder of the Chicago anarchists in the Haymarket affair endangered his career. Asserting that their conviction was based on their political views rather than on evidence of murder, he wrote a famous letter to the New York Tribune just prior to their execution, urging clemency. A prolific writer, Howells published about a hundred books, including novels, plays, criticism, essays, and short stories.
