The Rise of Silas Lapham Author Info: William Dean Howells If the novel's moral aesthetics seem somewhat dated, recall that it was written at the height of the Victorian era. Meanwhile, the language has worn well; it does not seem as dated as some other novels of its time. And I, for one, found the essentially positive treatment of Lapham to be a refreshing departure. It stands in honorable opposition to the more negative, and somehow less human, portrayals of Dreiser, Lewis, Sinclair and that ilk.

DEAD by: William Dean Howells (1837-1920) OMETHING lies in the room Over against my own; The windows are lit with a ghastly bloom Of candles, burning alone, Untrimmed, and all aflare In the ghastly silence there! People go by the door, Tiptoe, holding their breath, And hush the talk that they held before, Lest they should waken Death, That is awake all night There in the candlelight! The cat upon the stairs Watches with flamy eye For the sleepy one who shall unawares Let her go stealing by. She softly, softly purrs, And claws at the banisters. The bird from out its dream Breaks with a sudden song, That stabs the sense like a sudden scream; The hound the whole night long Howls to the moonless sky, So far, and starry, and high.

William Dean Howells Author of well over fifty books, William Dean Howells is regarded as the "father of American realism" in theory and criticism. In practice, however, Howells frequently maintained a few features of romanticism. He was the most influential man of letters in the post civil war period in the United States. Born in small town Ohio, he was considered a Westerner when he first arrived in Boston in 1860, meeting many of the most influential writers of the times, among them Nathaniel Hawthorne, James Russell Lowell (editor-in-chief of the Atlantic ), Dr.Oliver Wendell Holmes and Walt Whitman. His background of printing, journalism, diplomacy (serving as Consul in Venice during the civil war), editor of newspapers, magazines and novels, and finally as a literary critic (and his keen ability to observe American life after returning from Italy) helped to direct his imagination. Howells also read voraciously from an early age, often reading in the original languages. (He spoke fluent German and Italian.) The novels of William Dean Howells were among those rarities in literature: they were both popular with the critics and sold extremely well. Like many writers who enjoy huge popularity, Howells later became regarded as "old-fashioned" and was unfairly and inaccurately criticized as such by influential writers of the early part of this century like H.L.Mencken and Sinclair Lewis. Howells has made a comeback among critics since the nineteen fifties, among others with Lionel Trilling and, most recently, John Updike. Most famous of his thirty four novels are:

Editha William Dean Howells (1837-1920) The air was thick with the war feeling, like the electricity of a storm which has not yet burst. Editha sat looking out into the hot spring afternoon, with her lips parted, and panting with the intensity of the question whether she could let him go. She had decided that she could not let him stay, when she saw him at the end of the still leafless avenue, making slowly up towards the house, with his head down and his figure relaxed. She ran impatiently out on the veranda, to the edge of the steps, and imperatively demanded greater haste of him with her will before she called aloud to him: "George!" He had quickened his pace in mystical response to her mystical urgence, before he could have heard her; now he looked up and answered, "Well?" "Oh, how united we are!" she exulted, and then she swooped down the steps to him. "What is it?" she cried. "It's war," he said, and he pulled her up to him and kissed her. "But don't you see dearest," she said, "that it wouldn't have come to this if it hadn't been in the order of Providence? And I call any war glorious that is for the liberation of people who have been struggling for years against the cruelest oppression. Don't you think so, too?"

William Dean Howells - (1837-1920) Martin's Ferry By Jeff Postow I. Personal and Professional Life William Dean Howells, an American novelist, critic, editor, and realist writer, was born on March 1, 1837, at Martin's Ferry, Belmont County, Ohio. He was one of eight children of a struggling printer and publisher, William Cooper Howells and Mary Dean Howells (Carter 13). As the Howells family traveled around Ohio with their father, from one ailing enterprise to another, Howells received little formal education (Carter 14). Although Howells received little formal education, his father supported his interest in literature and supplied Howells with works from his extensive private collection of famous authors. From reading these works, Howells taught himself Spanish and German in order to read works by Spanish and German authors (Carter 14). Howells continued his self-education as his family moved throughout Ohio. From Hamilton, Ohio, where his father edited the Intelligencer , Howells's family moved to Dayton where his father tried unsuccessfully to revitalize the ailing
