Sommario/riassunto |
|
This volume sheds light on how the text and physical design of Joyce's 'Ulysses' and 'Finnegans Wake' reflect changes that transformed Europe between World War I and II. Looking beyond the commonly studied Irish historical context of these works, Tekla Mecsnóber calls for more attention to their place among broader cultural and political processes. |
