This dissertation argues that Henry James deliberately and ingeniously wrote The Ambassadors (1903) as a double-plotted novel. The traditional plot which follows Lambert Strether to Paris provides cover for the detailed story of Strether's experiences in Paris as a homosexual man seeking his identity. James conveys the Other Plot by means of code, the primary signifiers of which are references to the well-established homosexual subcultures of London and Paris. In-depth historical research on homosexual life in the nineteenth century are presented in order to inform the "Jamesian Code," demonstrating how James presents a fully-formed narrative that portrays homosexual identity realistically and sensitively while hiding it from moral and literary critics.
