Making the case that legal issues are central to James Joyce's life
and work, international experts in law and literature offer new
insights into Joyce's most important texts. They analyze Dubliners,
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Giacomo Joyce, Ulysses,
and Finnegans Wake in light of the legal contexts of Joyce's day.
Topics include marriage laws, the Aliens Act of 1905, laws
governing display and use of language, minority rights debates,
municipal self-government, and regulations on alcohol consumption
and licensing. This volume also highlights Joyce's own fascination
with law and legal inquiry, his use of a "trademark" visual and
linguistic style, the obscenity cases brought against Ulysses, and
how copyright has affected publication of Joyce's work. These
discussions show how reading Joyce alongside the law enriches both
legal studies and literary scholarship.
