Abstract
This article looks at how Henry James arrived at the title “the golden bowl” for his 1904 novel. Specifically, it considers the influence of Edgar Allan Poe, and his own novel The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym, on James’s use of the title and figure of the golden bowl, and how the James/Poe relation itself plays out some of the issues with which James is concerned in the novel.
