SAINT-AMOUR. 330 $aJoyce, Benjamin and Magical Urbanism offers for the first time a sustained exploration of parallels between the fiction of James Joyce and the cultural criticism of Walter Benjamin. Benjamin is perhaps modernism?s most eloquent theorist, Joyce its finest writer of fiction; both haunted the same Paris streets at the height of the modernist moment, and both developed accounts of the flaneur?s encounter with the city, with commodity culture and with others, that were revolutionary in their day and continue to set the agendas for culture and cultural critique. To place some of the work of each side by side is to make evident their affinities: the skills of each as new cartographers of the urban, the interest of each in ethnicity, nationalism, and exile, the way in which the ?Profane illumination? celebrated by Benjamin meets the ?Epiphany? of Joyce?s A Portrait , as each rethought the epistemology of insight in the modernist moment. This collection explores these parallels between two of the greatest modernists, casting the aesthetic strategies of Joyce in the light of the aesthetic critique of Benjamin, opening up the politics of the one in the light of those of the other, and discerning the parallels between Joyce?s version of a modern urban world in which self and society effect an uneasy rapprochement and Benjamin?s modernist scenarios in which the aura might still linger. This collection discovers extraordinary parallels between the two writers who, writing in Paris, offered new accounts of urban selfhood and survival to the world. 410 0$aEuropean Joyce studies ;$v21. 606 $aUrbanization in literature 606 $aMagic in literature 606 $aMagic realism (Literature) 615 0$aUrbanization in literature. 615 0$aMagic in literature. 615 0$aMagic realism (Literature) 676 $a305.868/073 701 $aBoscagli$b Maurizia$01492145 701 $aDuffy$b Enda$01492146 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910789709303321 996 $aJoyce, Benjamin and magical urbanism$93714444 997 $aUNINA
