IV, Drafts, TSS and Proofs viii PREFACE The genesis of this book extends back over the last ten years, during which time it has taken a number of different conceptual forms, few of which resemble the current volume whose realisation has been, in many senses, fortuitous and linked to an equally fortuitous event—the Prague James Joyce Colloquium, held in September 2003, to address the topic of “Joycean Genetics and Hypertext.” The Colloquium participants included Derek Attridge, Daniel Ferrer, Stacey Herbert, Laurent Milesi, Luca Crispi, Vincent Deane, Alan Roughley, myself, and (in absentia) Michael Groden, Fritz Senn and Sam Slote. In certain respects the Colloquium was a type of re-union. At the James Joyce Symposium in Seville, in 1994, I first encountered Daniel Ferrer’s work on hypertextual applications to the genetic analysis of “avant- textes,” along with Laurent Milesi’s work on textual genetics. Alan Roughley, myself and Darren Tofts shared a panel on “Joyce’s Philosophical Intertexts” (Tofts’s paper from that event, on Joyce and Duchamp, is reproduced here). It was also the last Symposium that Bernard Benstock attended, shortly prior to his untimely death, and in many respects marked the end point of an important stage in the critical-theoretical engagement with Joyce’s texts. It would be another five years before work like Alan Roughley’s Reading Derrida Reading Joyce would finally get to print, having been commissioned under Benstock’s editorship at the University Press of Florida’s Joyce series. That a distinct stage in Joyce “theory” was about to emerge—separate from the mainstream of “method” theorising (applying to Joyce the latest theory that comes along)—became evident the following June, at Brown University where, on the initiative of Bob Scholes, Daniel Ferrer presented a keynote address on Joycean hypertext (as well as a hypertext demonstration in partnership with the Intermedia Lab) alerting the world to the fact of a major development in both the theoretical and practical engagement with Joyce’s texts, one which, far from being simply a “method,” had its genesis in the work itself (and the work-in-progress) of Joyce. The Brown conference also saw the first panel discussion of Joycean hypertext, chaired by Morris Beja, with Bill Brockman, Jim LeBlanc, and myself. This was followed at the Chicago MLA convention that December by a panel discussion on the question of “Theorising Knowledge in/of the Joycean Text,” chaired by Margot Norris, with Michael Groden, myself and Paul Saint Amour. And it was at this event, during a reception at the Hyatt Regency hosted by the then Joyce Foundation president, Karen Lawrence, that the idea of this volume first seriously arose—in a discussion that involved Derek Attridge, Sheldon Brivic, Brandon Kershner and the editor-in-chief of FUP, Walda Metcalf. ix During 1994 and 1995, numerous hypermedia projects focused on Joyce— many with pedagogical intentions—were being undertaken, often spontaneously and independently of one another, in Australia, Europe and North America. In large part this was due to the fact that in 1991 the majority of Joyce’s work had moved out of copyright, followed by a rash of publishing activity, not only within the conventional publishing industry, but also online and on CD-ROM.

Lapham Last week in Book Notes, we discussed Norman Mailer’s discovery in Superman Comes to the Supermarket of mediated America, that trifurcated world in which Americans live simultaneously in three realms, in three realities. One is based, more or less, in the physical world of nouns and verbs, which is to say people, other creatures, and things (objects) that either act or are acted upon. The second is a world of mental images lodged between people’s ears; and, third, and most importantly, the mediasphere. The mediascape is where the two worlds meet, filtering back and forth between each other sometimes in harmony but frequently in a dissonant clanging and clashing of competing images, of competing cultures, of competing realities. Two quick asides: First, it needs to be immediately said that Americans are not the first ever and certainly not the only 21st century denizens of multiple realities, as any glimpse of Japanese anime, Chinese Donghua, or British Cosplay Girls Facebook page will attest, but Americans first gave it full bloom with the “Hollywoodization,” the “Disneyfication” of just about anything, for when Mae West murmured, “Come up and see me some time,” she said more than she could have ever imagined.

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.

  • Was Mcluhan a Semiotician?
    MediaTropes eJournal Vol I (2008): 113–126 ISSN 1913-6005 THE MEDIUM IS THE SIGN: WAS MCLUHAN A SEMIOTICIAN? MARCEL DANESI That the world is being threatened more and more by those who hold the levers of “media power,” i.e., by those who control television networks, movie production studios, and computer media, is obvious to virtually everyone. It was, of course, Marshall McLuhan who was among the first to emphasize this fact, showing how the “meaning structures” that the media produce shape human cognition. The interesting thing for a semiotician is that he did so in a way that is consistent with semiotic ideas and, above all else, semiotic method. Was McLuhan a semiotician? Of course, he never claimed to be one, and, whether he knew anything about semiotic theory as such is beside the point. It is not commonly known outside of semiotics proper that the “science of signs” grew out of attempts by the first physicians of the Western world to understand how the body and the mind interact within specific cultural domains. Indeed, in its oldest usage, the term semiotics was applied to the study of the observable pattern of physiological symptoms induced by particular diseases. Hippocrates (460?–377? BCE)—the founder of Western medical science—viewed the ways in which an individual in a specific culture would manifest and relate the symptomatology associated with a disease as the basis upon which to carry out an appropriate diagnosis and then to formulate a suitable prognosis. The physician Galen of Pergamum (130?–200? CE) similarly referred to diagnosis as a process of semiosis.

  • The Making of Typographic Man
    the utenberg galaxy the uten,berg galaxy the making of typographic man by Marshall McLuhan University of Toronto Press Copyright, Canada, 1962 / UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO PRESS / Printed in Canada Reprinted 1962 Contents Prologue 1 The Gutenberg Galaxy 11 The Galaxy Reconfigured 265 Bibliographic Index 281 Index of Chapter Glosses 291 The Gutenberg Galaxy develops a mosaic or field approach to its problems. Such a mosaic image of numerous data and quotations in evidence offers the only practical means of revealing causal operations in history. The alternative procedure would be to offer a series of views of fixed relationships in pictorial space. Thus the galaxy or constellation of events upon which the present study concentrates is itself a mosaic of perpetually interacting forms that have undergone kaleidoscopic transformation— particularly in our own time. With reference to the current transformation, the reader may find the end of the book, "The Galaxy Reconfigured," the best prologue. Prologue * The present volume is in many respects complementary to The Singer of Tales by Albert B. Lord. Professor Lord has continued the work of Milman Parry, whose Homeric studies had led him to consider how oral and written poetry naturally followed diverse patterns and functions. Convinced that the poems of Homer were oral compositions, Parry "set himself the task of proving incontrovertibly if it were possible, the oral character of the poems, and to that end he turned to the study of the Yugoslav epics." His study of these modern epics was, he explained, "to fix with exactness the form of oral story poetry. Its method was to observe singers working in a thriving tradition of unlettered song and see how the form of their songs hangs upon their having to learn and practice their art without reading and writing."' Professor Lord's book, like the studies of Milman Parry, is quite natural and appropriate to our electric age, as The Gutenberg Galaxy may help to explain.

    ARTICLE THE “GUTENBERG GALAXY” AND THE HISTORICAL STUDY OF THE NEW TESTAMENT Werner Kelber Rice University, Houston [email protected] Since the consequences of printing have not been thoroughly explored, guidance is hard to come by. (Elizabeth Eisenstein, The Printing Press as an Agent of Change, 70) We are confronted with our present-day habits of thought; for we ourselves think of books as “containing” chapters and paragraphs, paragraphs as “containing” sentences, sentences as “containing” words, words as “containing” ideas, and finally ideas as “containing” truth. Here the whole mental world has gone hollow. (Walter J. Ong, Ramus, Method and the Decay of Dialogue, 121) All media work us over completely. They are so pervasive in their personal, political, economic, aesthetic, psychological, moral, ethical, and social consequences that they leave no part of us untouched, unaffected, unaltered. (Marshall McLuhan, The Medium is the Massage. https://pdf. yt/d/vNiFct6b-L5ucJEa ABSTRACT The general thesis of this essay states that Gutenberg’s print revolution has been a constitutive factor in the formation of the modern scholarship of the Bible. Specifically, the essay explores the historical-critical study of the New Testament from the angle of the typographic medium. Gutenberg’s print Bible is explained as setting the standards for the technologically-organised typographic space. The bulk of the essay describes both the constructive and the deconstructive impact that the fully rationalised format of the Bible has had on theological, exegetical, and hermeneutical sensibilities. Among the issues illuminated by the typographic examination are: entirely identical biblical texts; a text-centred concept of Christian origins; the spread of a post-Gutenberg intellectualism; the rise of the critical, textual edition; the Protestant principle of sola scriptura; the diminution of oral, memorial sensibilities; the premise of originality versus derivativeness, and many others.
