  • Early Sources for Joyce and the New Physics: the “Wandering Rocks” Manuscript, Dora Marsden, and Magazine Culture
    GENETIC JOYCE STUDIES – Issue 9 (Spring 2009) Early Sources for Joyce and the New Physics: the “Wandering Rocks” Manuscript, Dora Marsden, and Magazine Culture Jeff Drouin The bases of our physics seemed to have been put in permanently and for all time. But these bases dissolve! The hour accordingly has struck when our conceptions of physics must necessarily be overhauled. And not only these of physics. There must also ensue a reissuing of all the fundamental values. The entire question of knowledge, truth, and reality must come up for reassessment. Obviously, therefore, a new opportunity has been born for philosophy, for if there is a theory of knowledge which can support itself the effective time for its affirmation is now when all that dead weight of preconception, so overwhelming in Berkeley's time, is relieved by a transmuting sense of instability and self-mistrust appearing in those preconceptions themselves. — Dora Marsden, “Philosophy: The Science of Signs XV (continued)—Two Rival Formulas,” The Egoist (April 1918): 51. There is a substantial body of scholarship comparing James Joyce's later work with branches of contemporary physics such as the relativity theories, quantum mechanics, and wave-particle duality. Most of these studies focus on Finnegans Wake1, since it contains numerous references to Albert Einstein and also embodies the space and time debate of the mid-1920s between Joyce, Wyndham Lewis and Ezra Pound. There is also a fair amount of scholarship on Ulysses and physics2, which tends to compare the novel's metaphysics with those of Einstein's theories or to address the scientific content of the “Ithaca” episode.

  • Ulysses in Paradise: Joyce's Dialogues with Milton by RENATA D. MEINTS ADAIL a Thesis Submitted to the University of Birmingh
    Ulysses in Paradise: Joyce’s Dialogues with Milton by RENATA D. MEINTS ADAIL A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY English Studies School of English, Drama, American & Canadian Studies College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham October 2018 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT This thesis considers the imbrications created by James Joyce in his writing with the work of John Milton, through allusions, references and verbal echoes. These imbrications are analysed in light of the concept of ‘presence’, based on theories of intertextuality variously proposed by John Shawcross, Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht, and Eelco Runia. My analysis also deploys Gumbrecht’s concept of stimmung in order to explain how Joyce incorporates a Miltonic ‘atmosphere’ that pervades and enriches his characters and plot. By using a chronological approach, I show the subtlety of Milton’s presence in Joyce’s writing and Joyce’s strategy of weaving it into the ‘fabric’ of his works, from slight verbal echoes in Joyce’s early collection of poems, Chamber Music, to a culminating mass of Miltonic references and allusions in the multilingual Finnegans Wake.

  • James Joyce and His Influences: William Faulkner and Anthony Burgess
    James Joyce and His Influences: William Faulkner and Anthony Burgess An abstract of a Dissertation by Maxine i!3urke July, Ll.981 Drake University Advisor: Dr. Grace Eckley The problem. James Joyce's Ulysses provides a basis for examining and analyzing the influence of Joyce on selected works of William Faulkner and Anthony Bur­ gess especially in regard to the major ideas and style, and pattern and motif. The works to be used, in addi­ tion to Ulysses, include Faulkner's "The Bear" in Go Down, Moses and Mosquitoes and Burgess' Nothing Like the Sun. For the purpose, then, of determining to what de­ gree Joyce has influenced other writers, the ideas and techniques that explain his influence such as his lingu­ istic innovations, his use of mythology, and his stream­ of-consciousness technique are discussed. Procedure. Research includes a careful study of each of the works to be used and an examination of var­ ious critics and their works for contributions to this influence study. The plan of analysis and presentation includes, then, a prefatory section of the dissertation which provides a general statement stating the thesis of this dissertation, some background material on Joyce and his Ulysses, and a summary of the material discussed in each chapter. Next are three chapters which explain Joyce's influence: an introduction to Joyce and Ulysses; Joyce and Faulkner; and Joyce and Burgess. Thus Chapter One, for the purpose of showing how Joyce influences other writers, discusses the ideas and techniques that explain his influences--such things as his linguistic innovations, his use of mythology, and his stream-of­ consciousness method.

  • The Earliest Translations of Joyce's Ulysses
    Papers on Joyce 16 (2010): 81-91 The Earliest Translations of Joyce’s Ulysses CARMELO MEDINA CASADO Abstract The article explores Joyce’s interest and active participation in the earliest translations of Ulysses into German, French, Spanish, Russian, Czech, Polish, Japanese, Danish, Italian, Hungarian and Portuguese, as documented in Sylvia Beach’s business letters, now part of the “James Joyce Collection” in the Poetry Collection at the University of the State of NY at Buffalo, and in the James Joyce-Paul Leon Papers at the National Library of Ireland, Dublin. Keywords: Ulysses, early translations, Sylvia Beach’s letters, James Joyce-Paul Leon Papers. ylvia Beach’s decision to publish Ulysses in her bookshop S“Shakespeare and Company” in 1922 came as a direct 1 consequence of the censorship pressure met by the novel. This pressure and its eventual ban, both in the United States and in 81 THE EARLIEST TRANSLATION OF JOYCE’S ULYSSES United Kingdom, did not quell the interest in the literary world to read Joyce’s Ulysses; furthermore it attracted the attention of people who wanted to read it in languages other than English and consequently of publishers and translators from different countries. The first legal ban of Ulysses took place in the United States in 1921, when it was still being periodically published in The Little Review; the ban was finally lifted by Judge John Woolsey’s resolution in 1933. In the United Kingdom, the ban and prosecution was personally carried out by the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP); here too its distribution and publication was finally allowed in 1936, which was followed by the lifting of the ban in the rest of the English speaking world, where it had also been prohibited, except in 2 Ireland where Ulysses was not banned.

  • W. B. Yeat's Presence in James Joyce's a Portrait of The
    udc 821.111-31.09 Joyce J. doi 10.18485/bells.2015.7.1 Michael McAteer Pázmány Péter Catholic University, Budapest, Hungary W. B. YEAT’S PRESENCE IN JAMES JOYCE’S A PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS A YOUNG MAN Abstract In the context of scholarly re-evaluations of James Joyce’s relation to the literary revival in Ireland at the start of the twentieth century, this essay examines the significance of W.B. Yeats to A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. It traces some of the debates around Celtic and Irish identity within the literary revival as a context for understanding the pre-occupations evident in Joyce’s novel, noting the significance of Yeats’s mysticism to the protagonist of Stephen Hero, and its persistence in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man later. The essay considers the theme of flight in relation to the poetry volume that is addressed directly in the novel, Yeats’s 1899 collection, The Wind Among the Reeds. In the process, the influence of Yeats’s thought and style is observed both in Stephen Dedalus’s forms of expression and in the means through which Joyce conveys them. Particular attention is drawn to the notion of enchantment in the novel, and its relation to the literature of the Irish Revival. The later part of the essay turns to the 1899 performance of Yeats’s play, The Countess Cathleen, at the Antient Concert Rooms in Dublin, and Joyce’s memory of the performance as represented through Stephen towards the end of the novel.

They represent special pleading on behalf of some quango with a subversive agenda, something to sell. Maps are a futile compromise between information and knowledge. They require a powerful dose of fiction to bring them to life.’ In what ways do maps and mapping practices inform your work as a writer? Iain Sinclair (IS): What I’ve done from the start, I think, has been to try, linguistically, to create maps: my purpose, my point, has always been to create a map of somewhere by which I would know not only myself but a landscape and a place. When I call it a ‘map’, it is a very generalised form of a scrapbook or a cabinet of curiosities that includes written texts and a lot of photographs. I have what could be a map of the world made entirely of these hundreds and hundreds of snapshots that aren’t aesthetically wonderful, necessarily, but are a kind of logging of information, seeing the same things over and over again and creating plural maps that exist in all kinds of times and at the same time. It’s not a sense of a map that wants to sell something or to present a particular agenda of any kind; it’s a series of structures that don’t really take on any other form of description.

  • The New York James Joyce Society
    The New York James Joyce Society ZACK BOWEN As a married graduate teaching assistant with a child and working on a masters degree in English, my principal income in 1958 was only about twenty percent of what it had been in my former calling, the used car business. What psychic income there was in the auto- mobile business died with my father the year after I got my B.A., and when I returned to graduate school, I needed even more urgently to continue working part time as a singer and producer of radio com- mercials until I could land a full-time teaching job. At Temple Uni- versity I took Joyce with Mabel Worthington, who at the time was working on an index for her co-authored book with Matthew Hodg- art, Song in the Works of James Joyce. Since I had access to a studio in the Temple University radio station on Tuesday nights (making singing commercials for the Clements agency), and to professional Philadel- phia actors who could do Irish accents, I offered to make a demon- stration tape of a chapter of Ulysses with the actual music referred to in the text as background for Bloom’s thoughts. Mabel agreed to accept it in lieu of a term paper and I was on the way to a career glossing Joyce’s musical references. When I completed the M.A. at Temple I got a job at the State Uni- versity of New York, College of Fredonia, and a scholarship to com- plete my Ph.D. at Buffalo, a major Joyce manuscript repository, where I was privileged to work with Tom Connolly.
