- 奉使记(The Ambassadors)简介：
The second of James's three late masterpieces, was, in its author's opinion, "the best, all round, of my productions".
Lambert Strether, a mild middle-aged American of no particular achievements, is dispatched to Paris from the manufacturing empire of Woollett, Massachusetts. The mission conferred on him by his august patron, Mrs. Newsome, is to discover what, or who, is keeping her son Chad in the notorious city of pleasure, and to bring him home. But Strether finds Chad transformed by the influence of a remarkable woman; and as the Parisian spring advances, he himself succumbs to the allure of the 'vast bright Babylon' and to the mysterious charm of Madame de Vionnet.
这本书是詹姆斯三部晚期的著作中的第二部，在作者眼中是他所有作品中最好的。
兰姆伯特·斯德尔塞是一个碌碌无为的美国中年人， 从马萨诸塞州乌利特的制造帝国派往巴黎。这个任务是他那令人敬畏的资助人纽萨姆女士要求的。目的是为了找出是什么原因，或者是谁使他儿子扎德留恋于这个臭名昭著的享乐之城， 同时，将他儿子带回。 但斯德尔塞发现扎德应受一个非同寻常的女人的影响在转变；随着巴黎春天的到来，他也为“巨大明亮的巴比伦” 和范尼特女士的神秘魅力所折服。
