Joyce Effects

Joyce Effects

Derek Attridge

Cambridge University Press
2000
pokkari
Joyce Effects is a series of connected essays by one of today’s leading commentators on James Joyce. Joyce’s books, Derek Attridge argues, go off like fireworks, and one of this book’s aims is to enhance the reader’s enjoyment of these special effects. He also examines another sort of effect: the way Joyce’s writing challenges and transforms our understanding of language, literature, and history. Attridge’s exploration of these transforming effects represents fifteen years of close engagement with Joyce, and reflects the changing course of Joyce criticism during this period. Each of Joyce’s four major books is addressed in depth, while several shorter chapters take up particular theoretical topics such as character, chance and coincidence, historical writing and narrative as they are staged and scrutinized in Joyce’s writing. Through lively and accessible discussion, this book advances a mode of reading open to both the pleasures and the surprises of the literary work.

Joyce, Dante, and the Poetics of Literary Relations

Joyce, Dante, and the Poetics of Literary Relations

Lucia Boldrini

Cambridge University Press
2001
sidottu
Lucia Boldrini's study examines how the literary and linguistic theories of Dante's Divine Comedy helped shape the radical narrative techniques of Joyce's last novel, Finnegans Wake. Through detailed parallel readings, she explores a range of connections: issues such as the question of Babel, literary creation as excrement, the complex relations between literary, geometrical and female forms. Boldrini places Joyce's work in the wider context of other modernist writing's relation to Dante, thereby identifying the distinctness of Joyce's own project. She considers how theories of influence and intertextuality help or limit the understanding of the relation. Boldrini shows how, through an untiring confrontation with his predecessors, constantly thematised within his writing, Joyce develops a 'poetics in progress' that informs not only his final work but his entire oeuvre. This book will appeal to scholars and students interested in Joyce, Dante, and questions of literary relations.

Joyce: 'Ulysses'

Joyce: 'Ulysses'

Sherry Vincent

Cambridge University Press
2004
sidottu
In this engaging introduction, Vincent Sherry combines a close reading of Ulysses with new critical arguments. He provides a useful guide to the episodic sequence of Joyce’s novel. In addition, he presents a searching interpretation of this masterwork, freshly addressing the major issues in Ulysses criticism. He shows how Joyce’s modernist epic remodels Homer’s Odyssey; he examines and explains Joyce’s extraordinary verbal experiments; and he reads anew the most challenging language of the text, the words through which the characters reveal their secret lives. He also reclaims the landmark status of Joyce’s monumental novel, situating it in the relevant contexts of literary tradition and political history. This book is essential reading for all students of Joyce, whether they are approaching Ulysses for the first time or returning to the text.

Joyce, Race and 'Finnegans Wake'

Joyce, Race and 'Finnegans Wake'

Len Platt

Cambridge University Press
2007
sidottu
Len Platt charts a fresh approach through one of the great masterpieces of twentieth-century literature. Using original archival research and detailed close readings, he outlines Joyce's literary response to the racial discourse of twentieth-century politics. Platt's account is the first to position Finnegans Wake in precise historical conditions and to explore Joyce's engagement with European fascism. Race, Platt claims, is a central theme for Joyce, both in terms of the colonial and post-colonial conflicts between the Irish and the British, and in terms of its use by the extreme right. It is in this context that Joyce's engagement with race, while certainly a product of colonial relations, also figures as a wider disputation with rationalism, capitalism and modernity.

Joyce’s Women

Edna O'Brien

nidottu
I love fire. Fire is the colour of genius.In this audacious new work, Edna O'Brien gives voice to the women who were central to the life of James Joyce.'James Joyce had been my ultimate hero for sixty years, but to paint the canvas of his life was daunting. Therefore I decided to depict him as seen by the key figures in his life - Mother, Wife, Mistress of a fleeting moment, his patron Harriet Weaver and his beloved Daughter Lucia, of whom he said her mind was but a transparent leaf away from his.'Written to celebrate the centenary of Ulysses, Joyce's Women premiered at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, in September 2022. This revised edition includes changes made by the author during rehearsals and previews of the play's first production.

The Collected Poems of Joyce Stein

The Collected Poems of Joyce Stein

Joyce Stein

Barney Stein
2021
sidottu
The Collected Works of Joyce Stein is more than a book of poetry: it is a life in verse, a chronicle of the transition from old to new at the turn of the millennium. From travels to distant locales, to motherhood and love, to mysticism and simple observations of daily life, the reader witnesses the poetic unfolding of the author's rich experience and global awareness. Nothing lies beyond Stein's eye, and her attentiveness to seemingly mundane minutiae yields expansive realizations about family, the self, the body, and human nature-a string becomes a meditation on mortality, a newborn child shines star-like, and a rafter "is surfaced with an ever-changing eye. A sloe-eyed Egyptian hieroglyph." But Stein's vision is not limited to her own joys and trials. Her work reaches back through her family's history to unravel her own unique position in time: "We are ragged at the edges; our boundaries spread so widely that we have passed each other by." And as in a life lived to brimming, the reader will find the spectrum of human feeling and consciousness here, including the poet's love for her sons, grandchildren, friends, and even complete strangers. The reader, too, as they absorb her words, will find themselves included in the poet's wide compassion, be inspired to look as closely as she did, and, finally, feel lucky to behold her vision, "to be here" in the world Joyce Stein so clearly relished.

Joyce and Dante

Joyce and Dante

Mary Trackett Reynolds

Princeton University Press
2014
pokkari
Mary Reynolds studies the rhetorical and linguistic maneuvers by which Joyce related his work to Dante's and shows how Joyce created in his own fiction a Dantean allegory of art. Dr. Reynolds argues that Joyce read Dante as a poet rather than as a Catholic; that Joyce was interested in Dante's criticism of society and, above all, in his great powers of innovation. Originally published in 1981. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Joyce's Uncertainty Principle

Joyce's Uncertainty Principle

Phillip F. Herring

Princeton University Press
2014
pokkari
Phillip Herring distinguishes the solvable problems from the truly insolvable mysteries in Joyce studies. His unusual and often witty book contains enough background material to appeal to a beginning reader of Joyce, yet it will be of the utmost importance to the specialist. He argues that Joyce formulated an uncertainty principle as early as the first Dubliners story and that he continued to engineer impossible-to-resolve mysteries" through his creation of literature's most radical experiment, Einnegans Wake. Originally published in 1987. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.

Voices from History: Joyce's War

Voices from History: Joyce's War

Joyce Ffoulkes Parry

The History Press Ltd
2015
nidottu
Joyce Ffoulkes Parry was an Australian nurse who came to Britain in 1937 to rediscover her Welsh roots. When war was declared, she signed up as a Queen Alexandra nurse and from 1940 until 1944, when she left India to begin her married life in Wales, she served as a sister in France, on hospital ships and in hospitals in Egypt, India and the Far East. Her journal came to light after her death in 1992. Out of the chaos of war emerges a unique voice telling a vivid, compelling and honest story of adventure, bravery, friendship, homesickness and wartime romance. Edited by her daughter and published for the first time, Joyce’s wry observations about everything from the bureaucracy of the army to how poetry and shopping helped sustain her through four difficult but extraordinary years offer a fascinating glimpse into a vanished world.

Joyce, Bakhtin, and Popular Literature

Joyce, Bakhtin, and Popular Literature

Kershner R. B.

The University of North Carolina Press
1992
nidottu
The sheer mass of allusion to popular literature in the writings of James Joyce is daunting. Using theories developed by Russian critic Mikhail Bakhtin, R. B. Kershner analyzes how Joyce made use of popular literature in such early works as Stephen Hero , Dubliners , A Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man , and Exiles . Kershner also examines Joyce's use of rhetoric, the relationship between narrator and protagonist, and the interplay of voices, whether personal, literary, or subliterary, in Joyce's writing. In pointing out the prolific allusions in Joyce to newspapers, children's books, popular novels, and even pornography, Kershner shows how each of these contributes to the structures of consciousness of Joyce's various characters, all of whom write and rewrite themselves in terms of the texts they read in their youth. He also investigates the intertextual role of many popular books to which Joyce alludes in his writings and letters, or which he owned -- some well known, others now obscure. Kershner presents Joyce as a writer with a high degrees of social consciousness, whose writings highlight the conflicting ideologies of the Irish bourgeoisie. In exploring the social dimension of Joyce's writing, he calls upon such important contemporary thinkers as Jameston, Althusser, Barthes, and Lacan in addition to Bakhtin. Joyce's literary response to his historical situation was not polemical, Kershner argues, but, in Bakhtin's terms, dialogical: his writings represent an unremitting dialogue with the discordant but powerful voices of his day, many inaudible to us now. Joyce, Bakhtin, and Popular Literature places Joyce within the social and intellectual context of his time. Through stylistic, social, and ideological analysis, Kersner gives us a fuller grasp of the the complexity of Joyce's earlier writings.
