Making the New: Literary Periodicals and the Construction of Modernism
Making the New: Literary Periodicals and the Construction of Modernism Peter Marks University of Sydney We are told that we live in a postmodernworld, experiencing unprecedented innovations, delights, and anxieties. Rather than rehearse these here, I want initially to touch brieflyon one theoretical attempt to make sense of this condition, one that definesPostmodernism in relation to its presumed antecedent, Modernism. I want to use this as a way of questioning the "monumental" view of literary Modernism, in which a massive landscape abounds with canonical texts carved by mythical giants: Joyce, Eliot, Woolf, Pound, Stein-the usual suspects. I do this by considering the role of literary periodicals in the construction, production, and initial reception of those texts. The later part of this discussion focuses on transition, the Paris-based journal of the 1920s and 1930s whose aspirations, pretensions, vigor and perilous existence typify the complex forces in play. I emphasize the point that while indi vidual periodicals consciously adopted distinct identities, they need to be understood collectively forthe vital functionsthey performed: they printed avant-garde work as well as advanced criticism and theory; acted as nurseries for experimental young writers, and as platformsfor the already-established; forged and maintained interna tional links between writers and groups; provided avant-garde writers with sophisti cated readers, and vice versa; and maintained an ipteractiveplurality of cultural dis course. Alive with the energy of experimentation, they register the fertile, complex, yet intriguingly tentative development of modem literature. In his inquisitive and provocative work, ThePostmodern Turn, lhab Hassan moves towards a concept of postmodernism by constructing a table of "certain schematic differences from modernism" (91). -
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.

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. -

A Voz De Nora Barnacle
A VOZ DE NORA BARNACLE DIRCE WALTRICK DO AMARANTE egundo Brenda Maddox, biógrafa de Nora Barnacle, “Nora não tinha diário. O que poderia reconstruir sua personalidade S pertencia em grande parte a seu cunhado Stanislaus Joyce. Foi ele quem salvou, e sua viúva depois vendeu para Cornell, a ampla coleção de cartas privadas que revela quase tudo que se sabe sobre fatos da família de Nora, seu namoro e seu relacionamento com James Joyce”.1 Grande parte da correspondência entre o casal foi escrita apenas por Joyce, já que Nora não gostava de redigir cartas e só o fazia por necessidade. Não são raras as vezes em que Joyce, nas cartas à companheira, a chama de “caladinha”, “silenciosa” e implora que ela lhe escreva. As cartas de Joyce a Nora, reunidas neste volume, teriam, como todas as correspondências amorosas, de acordo com a tese de Roland Barthes, a seguinte característica: “eu falo e você me escuta, logo nós somos”,2 numa frase de Ponge, retomada pelo crítico francês. Portanto, prossegue Barthes,“o discurso amoroso sufoca o outro, que não encontra nenhum espaço para a sua própria palavra sob esse dizer maciço”.3 Ou seja, “o outro é desfigurado por seu mutismo, como naqueles sonhos pavorosos nos quais tal pessoa amada aparece com a parte inferior do rosto apagada, privada de boca; e eu que falo, sou também desfigurado: o solilóquio faz de mim um monstro, uma enorme língua.”4 Ao mesmo tempo, entretanto, como afirma o pensador italiano Giorgio Agamben, “só as palavras nos põem em contato com as coisas mudas”.5 Nesse aspecto, as cartas de Joyce dão visibilidade a Nora Barnacle, sua companheira de vida, nascida em Galway em 21 ou 22 (igreja e estado não estão de acordo 1 Maddox, Brenda. -
The Cea Forum 2013
Summer/Fall THE CEA FORUM 2013 Book Review Gordon Bowker, James Joyce: A New Biography New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2011. ($35.00) Lee Brewer Jones Georgia Perimeter College Online Regarding Gordon Bowker’s new James Joyce biography, one question immediately springs to mind: why? Herbert Gorman’s 1939 biography was authorized, and Richard Ellman’s 1959 work, although hoary, is still venerated. Bowker begins by acknowledging he must “stand on the shoulders of these and other books” (xi). Then, he asserts he “will attempt to go beyond the mere facts and tap into Joyce’s elusive consciousness” (8). Bowker’s biography, furthermore, “is informed by the belief that it is enlightening to view the work of a highly autobiographical writer like Joyce in the context of his life” (8). What Bowker does not state is that Gorman’s biography, overseen by the author himself, borders on hagiography. Ellman, too, labored at a time when members of Joyce’s family and some of his fiercest protectors survived. Both the passing of these individuals and the wealth of material discovered since Ellman revised his book in 1982 justify a writer with Bowker’s perspective reexamining the “riverrun” (5) that constitutes Joyce’s life and work. Bowker divides the 540 pages of James Joyce: A New Biography purely by chronology into 35 chapters, some covering only a few months of a capstone year, such as 1904. Each chapter receives its own title; one memorable choice is “Ulysses: Inside the Dismal Labyrinth 198 www.cea-web.org Summer/Fall THE CEA FORUM 2013 (1920 – 1921).” Writing in a straightforward style, Bowker plumbs both the shallows and the depths of the Liffey, the river that meanders throughout Joyce’s works even though he rarely saw it after 1904, when he was in his early twenties, and never at all after 1912. -

In Joyce's Dubliners
PARALYSIS AS “SPIRITUAL LIBERATION” IN JOYCE’S DUBLINERS Iven Lucas Heister, B.A. Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2014 APPROVED: David Holdeman, Major Professor and Chair of the Department of English Masood Raja, Committee Member Stephanie Hawkins, Committee Member Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Heister, Iven Lucas. Paralysis as “spiritual liberation” in Joyce’s Dubliners. Master of Arts (English), May 2014, 50 pp., references, 26 titles. In James Joyce criticism, and by implication Irish and modernist studies, the word paralysis has a very insular meaning. The word famously appears in the opening page of Dubliners, in “The Sisters,” which predated the collection’s 1914 publication by ten years, and in a letter to his publisher Grant Richards. The commonplace conception of the word is that it is a metaphor that emanates from the literal fact of the Reverend James Flynn’s physical condition the narrator recalls at the beginning of “The Sisters.” As a metaphor, paralysis has signified two immaterial, or spiritual, states: one individual or psychological and the other collective or social. The assumption is that as a collective and individual signifier, paralysis is the thing from which Ireland needs to be freed. Rather than relying on this received tradition of interpretation and assumptions about the term, I consider that paralysis is a two-sided term. I argue that paralysis is a problem and a solution and that sometimes what appears to be an escape from paralysis merely reinforces its negative manifestation. Paralysis cannot be avoided. Rather, it is something that should be engaged and used to redefine individual and social states. -
6Th Bloomsday Croatia: the Joyce of Wandering
6th Bloomsday Croatia: The Joyce of Wandering 16-17 June 2016, Pula Every 16th of June literature enthusiasts and Ireland fans celebrate Bloomsday – the day James Joyce's Ulysses takes place, inspired by the day Joyce had first laid eyes on the love of his life, Nora Barnacle. For the sixth year, the Croatian coastal town of Pula commemorates Joyce, the Irish literary genius who lived there in 1904, the year of Ulysses. Bloomsday Croatia takes it back to where it all started: the coastal town of Pula; Joyce's first station in his self-exile from Dublin with Nora Barnacle, who would later become his wife. Initially, the couple had set out for Trieste, but ended up in Pula, an Austro-Hungarian naval port. Travel and literature became discoursively entangled in the 20th century, so Joyce's innate desire to explore and wander are the focus of the sixth edition of the Bloomsday Croatia festival. As the most mindpicking and meaning-elusive episode of his James Joyce's epochal Ulysses, Circe is the episode of choice. The hallucinatory episode is a metaphor for the cognitive travel; for Bloom it is the hero's journey into the mind, the sublime and the unconscious, his threading forth into the novel enviroment, just like that of Joyce's in the year of 1904 where he lived in the military port of Pula, an Austro- Hungarian coastal symbol of transit and change. A similar texture of the wandering hero is to be found in Stephen Dedalus, the ultimate Joycean hero who's coming of age was encapulated in the breathtaking psycho-geographic journey A Portrait of The Artist as a Young Man.
