Modern Literature and the Death Penalty, 1890-1950 by Katherine Ebury (review)

1 Frank Budgen, James Joyce and the Making of “Ulysses” and Other Writings, ed. Clive Hart (London: Oxford Univ. Press, 1972), p. 69. 2 See, for example, Ian Gunn and Clive Hart, James Joyce’s Dublin: A Topographical Guide to the Dublin of “Ulysses” (New York: Thames and Hudson, 2004), and John McCourt, The Years of Bloom: James Joyce in Trieste, 1904-1920 (Madison: Univ. of Wisconsin Press, 2000). Andreas Fischer cites Jean-Michel Rabaté’s “Joyce the Parisian” as an example of work that addresses Joyce’s Paris years, but one might also consider the more recent book-length study by Catherine Flynn—James Joyce and the Matter of Paris (Cambridge: Cambridge Univ. Press, 2019). Rabaté’s “Joyce the Parisian” is in The Cambridge Companion to James Joyce, ed. Derek Attridge (Cambridge: Cambridge Univ.
