Marian Eide argues that the central concern of James Joyce's writing was the creation of a literary ethics. Eide examines Joyce's ethical preoccupations throughout his work, particularly the tension between his commitment as an artist and his social obligations as a father and citizen during a tumultuous period of European history. Eide argues that his narrative suggestion that ethics, which etymologically signifies both 'character' and 'habitat', might be understood best as an interaction between immediate and intimate processes (character) and more external and enduring structures (habitat). Drawing on feminist theory, Eide focuses on the notions of alterity and difference. The literary ethics developed in this book proceed from a textual focus in order to examine how our assumptions about what it means to read and interpret produce within each reader an implicit ethical practice. This is a study devoted to Joyce's ethical philosophy as it emerges in his writing.

"From the very beginning James Joyce's readers have considered him as a Catholic or an anti-Catholic writer, and in recent years the tendency has been to recuperate him for an alternative and decidedly liberal form of Catholicism. However, a careful study of Joyce's published and unpublished writings reveals that throughout his career as a writer he rejected the church in which he had grown up. As a result, Geert Lernout argues that it is misleading to divorce his work from that particular context, which was so important to his decision to become a writer in the first place. Arguing that Joyce's unbelief is critical for a fuller understanding of his work, Lernout takes his title from Ulysses, "I believe, O Lord, help my unbelief. That is, help me to believe or help me to unbelieve?", itself a quote from Mark 9: 24. This incisive study will be of interest to all readers of Joyce and to anyone interested in the relationship between religion and literature."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

The first volume to collect essays from the emergent field of cultural studies that specifically address the work of James Joyce, Cultural Studies of James Joyce includes work from both well-established Joyce scholars such as Margot Norris and Cheryl Herr and by such younger writers as Tracey Teets Schwarze and Paul Saint-Amour. Topics range over the whole field of culture, from “Nipper” the Victrola dog to the statuary of Praxitiles, from the Tank Girl comics to studies of Irish schizophrenia, from the history of University College Dublin to the political ferment over choral singing at the turn of the century. The volume should be of interest to Joyceans, to students of literature and culture in the twentieth century, and especially to those interested in the interactions of different cultural levels between the nineteenth century and our own time. An introductory survey by R. Brandon Kershner discusses the rise of cultural studies and places the issue within modern debates in literary theory.

In a radical new reading of Ulysses, the author explores James Joyce's twentieth-century epic as a work of Irish literature, arguing that previous criticism has distorted our understanding of Ulysses by focusing on Joyce's English and Continental literary source alone. Challenging conventional views that Joyce rejected the agendas of Irish cultural nationalists and the Irish literary revival, Tymoczko demonstrates that Ulysses "translates" Irish imagery, myth, genres, and literary modes into English. Her argument is supported by extensive research showing that Joyce was exceptionally well informed about Irish literature through popular culture, his study of the Irish language, and his specialized reading. For the first time, Joyce emerges as an author caught between the English and Irish literary traditions: one who like later post-colonial writers, remakes English-language literature with his own country's rich literary heritage. The author's exacting scholarship makes The Irish "Ulysses" required reading for Joyce scholars, while the theoretical implications of her argument - for such issues as canon formation, the constitutive role of criticism in literary reception, and the interface of literary cultures - will make this an important book for literary theorists. This is a work of scholarship that will change our understanding of one of the century's greatest writers.
