【正确答案】：
HENRY JAMES'S LITERARY CRITICISM IS AN INDISPENSABLE PART OF HIS CONTRIBUTION TO LITERATURE. IT IS BOTH CONCERNED WITH FORM AND DEVOTED TO HUMAN VALUES. THE THEME OF HIS ESSAY"THE ART OF FICTION" CLEARLY INDICATES THAT THE AIM OF THE NOVEL IS TO PRESENT LIFE, SO IT IS NOT SURPRISING TO FIND IN HIS WRITINGS HUMAN EXPERIENCES EXPLORED IN EVERY POSSIBLE FORM: ILLUSION, DESPAIR, REWARD, TORMENT, INSPIRATION, DELIGHT, ETC. HE ALSO ADVOCATES THE FREEDOM OF THE ARTIST TO WRITE ABOUT ANYTHING THAT CONCERNS HIM, EVEN THE DISAGREEABLE, THE UGLY AND THE COMMONPLACE. THE ARTIST SHOULD BE ABLE TO " FEEL"THE LIFE, TO UNDERSTAND HUMAN NATURE, AND THEN TO RECORD THEM IN HIS OWN ART FORM.
【题目解析】：詹姆斯的文学批评也是他对文学贡献的一部分。他的文学批评既注重形式，又注重人的价值。《小说的艺术》一文明确指出，小说的目的是现实生活。所以他作品中表现了各种形式生活是不足为奇的：如幻觉、绝望、回报、折磨、灵感、欢乐等。他还主张艺术家有自由去写作任何与他相关的东西，甚至是异端的、丑的和普通的东西。艺术家应能够“感受”生活，理解人性，然后忠实地将这些录入作品。
