Cultural Space and Identity Reshaping——Spatial Exploration in Henry James'The Ambassadors
The Ambassadors is the masterpiece among Henry James'international theme works.In the no-vel,the artistic forms of cities,architecture,streets,and other spaces are not only the background for the narra-tive but also endowed with profound spatial metaphors.These elements serve as vessels through which characters establish their spatial perception.Cross-border travelers engage in activities in spaces vastly different from their own,which involves not only geographical shift but also the fluctuation of cultural awareness.The conflicts and adjustments within this context imply the split and reconstruction of space,showing the construction of charac-ters'subjectivity and their identities reshaping.
