In most European countries, all of James’s writings published before 2007 became public domain in 2007. Texts first published in or after 2007 get a 25 year protection.
Switzerland (whose copyright laws we have to follow here) doesn’t have extra provisions for texts published after the end of the standard copyright term, so you can use all of these texts, if Japanese law is fine with it. But most Europeans wouldn’t be allowed to download them, if you include texts from 2007 on.
