Drawing on draft manuscripts and other archival material, James
Joyce and Absolute Music, explores Joyce's deep engagement with
musical structure, and his participation in the growing modernist
discourse surrounding 19th-century musical forms. Michelle Witen
examines Joyce's claim of having structured the "Sirens" episode of
his masterpiece, Ulysses, as a fuga per canonem, and his changing
musical project from his early works, such as Dubliners and A
Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. Informed by a deep
understanding of music theory and history, the book goes on to
consider the "pure music" of Joyce's final work, Finnegans Wake.
Demonstrating the importance of music to Joyce, this
ground-breaking study reveals new depths to this enduring body of
work.
