James Joyce's preoccupation with space -- be it urban, geographic,
stellar, geometrical or optical -- is a central and idiosyncratic
feature of his work. In Making Space in the Works of James Joyce,
some of the most esteemed scholars in Joyce studies have come
together to evaluate the perception and mental construction of
space, as it is evoked through Joyce's writing. The aim is to bring
together several recent trends of literary research and criticism
to bear on the notion of space in its most concrete sense. The
essays move dialectically out of an immediate focus on the
phenomenological and intra-psychic, into broader and wider
meditations on the social, urban and collective. As Joyce's formal
experiments appear the response to the difficulty of enunciating
truly the experience of lived space, this eventually leads us to
textual and linguistic space. The final contribution evokes the
space with which Joyce worked daily, that of his manuscripts -- or
what he called "paperspace." With essays addressing all of Joyce's
major works, this volume is a critical contribution to our
understanding of modernism, as well as of the relationship between
space, language, and literature.
