This challenging collection of essays by an international group of
scholars aims, through the critical concept of 'context', to put
the work of James Joyce in its 'place'. The four sections explore a
range of contexts, offering significant perspectives - historical,
theoretical, feminist, cultural and linguistic - on Joyce's
writing. Essays on the modernist context place Joyce alongside
contemporaries, like Woolf, Ford, and Freud, re-evaluating accepted
notions of literary relationship and ideology. The context of the
'other' is invoked in essays drawing on recent developments in
feminist, post-structuralist, and psychoanalytic literary theory,
and taking Joyce's work as a site for provocative investigations
into the nature of sexual, national, ethnic and cultural
marginality. Some original re-readings of Joyce's relationship to
particular writers, critics and cultural traditions draw him into
proximity with Homer, Lacan, the comic strip and Irish popular
literature. Finally, in essays that examine aspects and evolutions
of his distinctive style, Joyce is considered within the parameters
of his own oeuvre.
