Renascent Joyce (Florida James Joyce) Hardcover - 2013 - 1st Edition
by Daniel Ferrer
From the rear cover
"A volume of contributions that are consistently, unfailingly illuminating examples of extensive scholarship and fine criticism."--Morris Beja, Ohio State University
Revival, reinvention, and regeneration: the concept of renascence pervades Joyce's work through the inescapable presence of his literary forebears. In fact, his writing derives some of its most important characteristics from Renaissance authors, as this collection shows. While previous critical work has often focused on Joyce's relationship to medieval thinkers like Thomas Aquinas and Dante, Renascent Joyce examines Joyce's connection to such figures as Shakespeare, Rabelais, and Bruno. By persistently reexamining tradition, reinterpreting his literary heritage in light of the present, and translating and re-translating from one system of signs to another, Joyce exhibits the spirit of the greatest of Renaissance writers and artists.Joyce's own writing can itself be viewed through the rubric of renascence with the tools of genetic criticism and the many insights afforded by the translation process. Several essays in this volume examine this broader idea, investigating the rebirth and reinterpretation of Joyce's texts. Topics include literary historiography, Joyce's early twentieth-century French cultural contexts, and the French translation of Ulysses. Attentive to the current state of Joyce studies, the writers of these extensively researched essays investigate the Renaissance spirit in Joyce to offer a volume at once historically informed and innovative. Daniel Ferrer is director of research at the Institut des Textes et Manuscrits Modernes in Paris. He is currently editing The "Finnegans Wake" Notebooks at Buffalo. Sam Slote is associate professor in James Joyce studies and critical theory at Trinity College Dublin. He is coeditor of How Joyce Wrote "Finnegans Wake." Andr Topia is professor emeritus of English literature at the Sorbonne Nouvelle. His coedited books include "Scribble" 2, Joyce et Flaubert and "Dubliners" rituels d'criture. A volume in the Florida James Joyce Series, edited by Sebastian D. G. KnowlesDetails
