Abstract

With the novel's attempts to get rid of the external narrative, and turn around to its internal becoming, interest appeared in a new element in literary criticism, which was called by different names and conventions, but it remained close in its connotations. These names include the point of view,or the narrative vision or the novelist perspective. Among most critics and researchers, this concept was developed by Henry James, which provides a method for revealing the facts of the story based on the situation and the textual characters through the minds of one of the characters, or the minds of several characters in the name of a point of view, in the introductions he wrote to his novels that appeared in the years 1907-1909 .
