Abstract

The article analyzes the strategies of representation of formal education of children in Henry James’s fiction. For him, formal education fulfills other, non-educational, functions, and knowledge is narrowed down to an external material form. The pedagogical practices of such education are recognized as inadequate. When knowledge and its content are disclosed, however, it invariably has an applicable character and serves business and commercial activity.
