Abstract
Abstract:The essay discusses two adaptations by Paul Muldoon of Joyce's "The Dead," one unpublished manuscript dating from 1984, and one he co-wrote with his wife, the novelist Jean Hanff Korelitz. As the interrelations between Muldoon's two versions of the short story are traced to the poet's other engagements with Joyce's oeuvre, particularly in his To Ireland, I, the essay seeks to explore the ends to which "The Dead" is put in Muldoon's renditions, which oscillate around the various deployments of political critique. It is argued here that Joyce's allusive-elusive text, in Muldoon's hands, pays increased attention to the central conflicts of modern Irish history.
期刊介绍：
Founded in 1963 at the University of Tulsa by Thomas F. Staley, the James Joyce Quarterly has been the flagship journal of international Joyce studies ever since. In each issue, the JJQ brings together a wide array of critical and theoretical work focusing on the life, writing, and reception of James Joyce. We encourage submissions of all types, welcoming archival, historical, biographical, and critical research. Each issue of the JJQ provides a selection of peer-reviewed essays representing the very best in contemporary Joyce scholarship. In addition, the journal publishes notes, reviews, letters, a comprehensive checklist of recent Joyce-related publications, and the editor"s "Raising the Wind" comments.
