UNIVERSITÀ DEGLI STUDI ROMA TRE DIPARTIMENTO DI LETTERATURE COMPARATE JSI – Joyce Studies in lta1y Occasional Issues Founder: Giorgio Melchiori General editor: Franca Ruggieri Joyce Studies in lta1y is an occasional publication aimed at collecting materials, which throw light upon Joyce’s work and Joyce’s world. It is open to the contribu- tions of scholars from other academic institutions, both in Italy and abroad and its broad intertextual approach is aimed at developing a better understanding of the literary and human figure of Joyce, who, both as an individual and a writer, still rep- resents an all important crossroads in Western culture. The project was initiated in the early Eighties by a research team at the University of Rome, ‘La Sapienza’, led by Giorgio Melchiori. In line with the editorial policy of JSI, no house style is imposed regarding the individual essays in the collection. Under the auspices of honorary members Umberto Eco and Giorgio Melchiori, the James Joyce Italian Foundation was founded in 2006 (website: http://host.uniroma3. it/associazioni jjif). The work of the Foundation, and the issues of the Piccola Biblioteca Joyciana series, are also intended to promote and further the work undertaken by Joyce Studies in Italy. 1 – JSI (1984) Joyce in Rome: the Genesis of Ulysses, ed.

But, from several reports—via word-of-mouth and Lawrence’s continued live tweeting (#LuciaJoycePerspectives)— it seems to have been an excellent event, expertly organized by Genevieve Sartor. It was about time that Lucia had an occasion of her own, rather than being squeezed into events focusing on her father. “Finnegans Wake at 80” was, for me, a resounding success. Although I have not fully switched my allegiance from Team Ulysses to Team Wake, since the symposium, I have returned to Joyce’s 1939 master- piece with renewed vigor, inquisitiveness, and conviction.

Deposit guide Contact: email “What can’t be coded can be decorded” Reading Writing Performing Finnegans Wake Oliver Rory Thomas Evans Phd Thesis School of Arts, Birkbeck College, University of London (2016) 2 3 This thesis examines the ways in which performances of James Joyce’s Finnegans Wake (1939) navigate the boundary between reading and writing. I consider the extent to which performances enact alternative readings of Finnegans Wake, challenging notions of competence and understanding; and by viewing performance as a form of writing I ask whether Joyce’s composition process can be remembered by its recomposition into new performances. These perspectives raise questions about authority and archivisation, and I argue that performances of Finnegans Wake challenge hierarchical and institutional forms of interpretation. By appropriating Joyce’s text through different methodologies of reading and writing I argue that these performances come into contact with a community of ghosts and traces which haunt its composition. In chapter one I argue that performance played an important role in the composition and early critical reception of Finnegans Wake and conduct an overview of various performances which challenge the notion of a ‘Joycean competence’ or encounter the text through radical recompositions of its material.

    Molly Vs. Bloom in Midnight Court James Joyce Quarterly 41: 4

    1 Joyce’s Merrimanic Heroine: Molly vs. Bloom in Midnight Court James Joyce Quarterly 41: 4 (Summer 2004): 745-65 James A. W. Heffernan In 1921, just one year before Ulysses first appeared, T.S. Eliot wrote the prescription for the kind of writer--Eliot’s word was “poet”--who would be required to produce it. He--male of course-- must bring to his work a “historical sense,” a capacity to integrate the life and literature of “his own generation” and “his own country” with “the whole of the literature of Europe from Homer” onward.12 Ulysses manifests Joyce’s command of that tradition on almost every page. Besides initiating a radically modern retelling of The Odyssey in a language that includes scraps of Greek, Latin, and French (with bits of German and Italian to come), the very first chapter of the novel spouts Homeric epithets, references to ancient Greek history and rhetoric, Latin passages from the Mass and Prayers for the Dying, allusions to Dante’s Commedia and Shakespeare’s Macbeth, and quotations from Hamlet and Yeats’s Countess Cathleen. Yet conspicuous by its absence from this multi-cultural stew is anything explicitly Gaelic, anciently Irish.3 Standing by the parapet of a tower built by the English in the late eighteenth century to keep the French from liberating Ireland, Stephen hears Mulligan’s proposal to “Hellenise” the island now (1.158) with something less than nationalistic fervor or Gaelic fever running through his head. “To ourselves . new paganism . omphalos,” he thinks (U 1.176). With “to ourselves” he alludes to Sinn Fein, meaning “We Ourselves,” the Gaelic motto of a movement that was founded in the 1890s to revive Irish language and culture and that became about 1905 the name of a political movement which remains alive and resolutely--if not militantly--nationalistic to this very day.

It interrogates Joyce‘s awareness of how a broad upswing in Ireland‘s post-Famine economy precipitated advertising-intensive consumerism in both rural and urban Ireland. Foci include the late-nineteenth-century transition in agriculture from arable farming to cattle-growing (grazier pastoralism), which, spurring economic growth, facilitated the emergence of a ―strong farmer‖ rural bourgeoisie. The thesis considers how Ulysses inscribes and critiques that relatively affluent coterie‘s expenditures on domestic cultural tourism, as well as hygiene-related products, whose presence on the Irish scene was complicated by a British discourse on imperial cleanliness.

The British Library ‘Circe’ Notesheet 6 Conclusion The Afterlives of Joyce’s ‘Alphabetical Notebook’ Luca Crispi INTRODUCTION One of the most remarkable and productive notebooks James Joyce ever compiled is his so-called ‘Alphabetical Notebook’ (Cornell MS 25).1 Not only did he first use it to continue writing and revising Chapter V of A Portrait, he also relied on it to revise, restructure, and radically transform Chapters I, II, and V. More fully than anything else that survives, the notebook indicates that Joyce intended to write a series of scenes for a more expansive version of A Portrait that he chose not to include in the published work. He most likely also wrote still more scenes specifically for the first episode of Ulysses in 1914 and 1915 also based on entries he drew from the ‘Alphabetical Notebook’.
