Len Platt charts a fresh approach through one of the great
masterpieces of twentieth-century literature. Using original
archival research and detailed close readings, he outlines Joyce's
literary response to the racial discourse of twentieth-century
politics. Platt's account is the first to position Finnegans Wake
in precise historical conditions and to explore Joyce's engagement
with European fascism. Race, Platt claims, is a central theme for
Joyce, both in terms of the colonial and post-colonial conflicts
between the Irish and the British, and in terms of its use by the
extreme right. It is in this context that Joyce's engagement with
race, while certainly a product of colonial relations, also figures
as a wider disputation with rationalism, capitalism and modernity.
