Dedication
We wish readers to know that, due to a clerical error, a slightly revised version of the review essay entitled “The Cambridge Centenary ‘Ulysses’: Struggling Towards Contemporaneity,” by Professor Hans Walter Gabler, was published in the JJQ, Vol. 60.3 (Spring 2023). We deeply regret that Professor Gabler’s original version was not included instead and apologize to him for the mistake. [End Page 452]

The volume’s recurring question is “how do multiple and disparate elements become a meaningful whole?” a query that applies both to <em>Ulysses</em> and to collections of artifacts pertaining to it. The answers to that question in <em>One Hundred Years of James Joyce’s “Ulysses”</em> honor both Joyce’s genius and the acumen of those who have highlighted his extraordinary talent by spending profusely on objects associated with it.

In addition to dozens of vivid images and two forewords, by Irish President Michael D. Higgins and Morgan Director Colin B. Bailey, it comprises a rambling introduction by the book’s editor, the distinguished novelist Colm Tóibín; five essays by noted Joyce scholars; three more essays by a lawyer, a collector, and a curator; an interview with Sean Kelly, whose collection was essential to the exhibition; and an essay by the manuscripts dealer Rick Gekoski about Sean and Mary Kelly’s collection.</p> <p>The book is not obviously organized for continuous cover-to-cover reading. If one does apprehend it that way, one cannot help noticing that multiple essays repeat the same facts.

Hassett’s lambasting of Quinn for that “tawdry and cynical” defense (94). Even the Patrick Tuohy 1924 portrait of John Stanislaus Joyce appears both in color in the introduction (11) and at the center of a black-and-white collage of Joyce family portraits at the beginning of James Maynard’s account of how the University at Buffalo acquired its Joyce collection (112). <strong>[End Page 649]</strong></p> <p>I f

ABSTRACT:This essay is a meditation on the contemporary migration and refugee crisis, the history of Irish emigration, and Joyce's awareness and treatment of such issues. It begins by discussing the official definitiions and political impacts of the terms "migrant" and "refugee," followed by an investigation of the risks and often tragic consequences of attempts to "migrate" to a better life (both nowadays and in the past). The second half of the essay explores how Joyce's texts treat such issues and their relationship to the politics and complexities of our contemporary moment—leading to an argument about the need for identificatory empathy or what I call "reverse parallax."

ABSTRACT:Joyce—as a "voluntary exile" and at times a forcibly displaced person—wrote at a time of colonialism, rebellions against imperialism, civil wars, world wars, genocidal persecutions, and the global movements of people. Migrants, refugees, asylum-seekers: these are the people fated to survive—if they survive—in what Hannah Arendt in The Origins of Totalitarianism calls the "barbed-wire labyrinth" of degrees of statelessness. Although Joyce was never forced into conditions of absolute statelessness as Jews in territories controlled by Nazis and Fascists were forced, his family and he were subjected to displacements from Austro-Hungarian Trieste during World War I and from Vichy France during World War II. This essay reconsiders these displacements, as well as Joyce's assistance to Jews to escape Nazi control, in relation to current global displacements and concerns about human rights.To write the history of the future—albeit a "future conditional"—Joyce explores the structural social injustices and power asymmetries of the past that still haunt and control the present. Of the over 103 million forcibly displaced people throughout the globe (approximately 1 of every 77 people worldwide), the majority will remain stateless for more than 15 years—or permanently—because no state acknowledges political or moral responsibility for them. By seldom admitting any but de jure refugees, governments refuse obligations to others who are stateless, rendering them politically, legally, and ontologically invisible. Belonging "to no internationally recognizable community whatever," they are thus, Arendt suggests in Responsibility and Judgment, outside "of mankind as a whole." The "future conditional" Joyce envisions, especially in Ulysses, stems from an ethics of commitment to those whose humanity others devalue.

ABSTRACT:This essay draws connections between exiles in Joyce's texts, LÉ James Joyce's rescue missions, and twenty-first-century refugees. Joyce's Ulysses, as a meditation on exile understood expansively and inclusively, foreshadows and anticipates the contemporary refugee crises in Ireland, the rest of Europe, and elsewhere. In Ulysses and other works, Joyce links mythological wanderers (Odysseus-Stephen, Telemachus-Bloom) with historical exiles (the Jewish diaspora, Irish emigrants), bringing our attention to the metaphor of contamination in xenophobic rhetoric in turn-of-the-century Ireland. Ulysses and Finnegans Wake attempt to approximate the condition of cultural and linguistic displacement. The multi-lingual, multi-form, and multivoiced narratives echo the lived experiences of displaced people for whom communication often means survival. Nevertheless, the essay calls for a careful use of language about exile and migration. To discuss Joyce's voluntary migrations East in the context of the experiences of the Jewish diaspora in the twentieth century or the refugees from Somalia, Eritrea, Syria, Afghanistan—or now Ukraine—is to diminish the humanitarian crises and suffering of true exile-refugees.

W we like it or not, modern life is regulated by pace. We measure our existence by the way we feel: how quickly the days slip away; how slow time becomes when we are doing something we do not wish to do; or how fast it goes by when we are with loved ones. Recently I have been watching a television series and found myself complaining that the time skips happened too often and too quickly, leaving the audience baffled. Or I remember when I first read Moby Dick in my undergraduate years and felt quite lost when I began the notorious cetological chapters that halt the narrative. I did not know how to interpret them or what to make of them and their contribution to the narrative. Although I have studied narratology over the years and learned to make sense of the way narrative pacing works, Brian Gingrich’s The Pace of Fiction: Narrative Movement and the Novel has certainly filled in some gaps for me. This study about narrative movement and the novel is comprised of an introduction and five chapters. The introduction lays out the central occupation of the study—“how transformations in pacing made and remade novelistic fiction” (1)—through some fundamental definitions. Many of them are the writer’s own renderings—the term pace meaning, for example, “large-forward-rhythmic-shifting-dynamic-temporal narrative movement” (2). Gingrich also reviews literature on narrative pacing with references to E. M. Forster, Viktor Shklovsky, Erich Auerbach, Roland Barthes, and, extensively, Gérard Genette and his Narrative Discourse.1 The chapters of the book, then, historically trace how narrative pacing has affected and been affected, in turn, by the very fabric of the novel through realism and modernism. The first chapter titled “Narrative Discourse, Literary History” introduces the two most crucial narrative units of pacing, scene and summary, and, along with them, other pacing markers such as ellipses and pauses. The author is careful in this chapter not to assign hasty and rigid definitions, and he acknowledges their limits. He argues that “there is no ground for an analysis of pace that is not of a shifting historical nature” (14). Gingrich then outlines the uses of scene and summary in the classical novel (with examples from Laurence Sterne, James Joyce Quarterly 60.3 2023

Forster, Viktor Shklovsky, Erich Auerbach, Roland Barthes, and, extensively, Gérard Genette and his Narrative Discourse.1 The chapters of the book, then, historically trace how narrative pacing has affected and been affected, in turn, by the very fabric of the novel through realism and modernism. The first chapter titled “Narrative Discourse, Literary History” introduces the two most crucial narrative units of pacing, scene and summary, and, along with them, other pacing markers such as ellipses and pauses. The author is careful in this chapter not to assign hasty and rigid definitions, and he acknowledges their limits. He argues that “there is no ground for an analysis of pace that is not of a shifting historical nature” (14). Gingrich then outlines the uses of scene and summary in the classical novel (with examples from Laurence Sterne, James Joyce Quarterly 60.3 2023","PeriodicalId":42413,"journal":{"name":"JAMES JOYCE QUARTERLY","volume":"60 1","pages":"414 - 418"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43674853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
