"James Joyce novelist born at Rathgar a suburb of Dublin and educated at Irish Jesuit colleges. Dissatisfied with the intellectual atmosphere of Dublin he left Ireland in 1902 and spent most of the remainder of his life abroad chiefly in Trieste Zürich and Paris contending for many years with poverty suffering latterly from severe eye trouble and struggling to obtain the publication of his works." The Oxford Companion to English Literature 421-422 "A largely autobiographical novel. it portrays the childhood school days adolescence and early manhood of Stephen Dedalus later one of the leading characters in Ulysses. Stephen's growing self-awareness as an artist forces him to reject the whole narrow world which he has been brought up. rather than following a clear narrative progression the book revolves around experiences that are crucial to Stephen's development as an artist; at the end of each chapter Stephen makes some assertion of identity. Through his use of stream of consciousness technique Joyce reveals actual materials of his hero's world the components of his thought processes." Benét 822. Slocum and Cahoon A11. HBS 69673. $20000.

1983réf. 63362Worcester: American Antiquarian Society 1983. cloth dust jacket. 8vo. cloth dust jacket. xii 322 pages. First edition. Fine in fine dust jacket. These essays have been written by leading scholars on early bookselling reading habits and the impact of printing in early America. Printing history in its broadest context may be viewed as a distinct form of cultural history a synthesis combining the attention to ideas that is central to intellectual history with the emphasis on patterns of behavior and organization characteristic of social history. This work encourages new approaches to the study of early printing including the fusion of bibliographical analysis and the broadly cultural approach of the French historians of books and society. Together the essays demonstrate how the world of print changed between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries - both shaping and reflecting the larger American culture. Titles of the papers presented here include "The Uses of Literacy in New England 1600-1850" "The Anglo-American Book Trade before 1776" "The Wages of Piety: The Boston Book Trade of Jeremy Condy" "The Colonial Retail Book Trade: Availability and Affordability of Reading Material in Mid-Eighteenth Century" Virginia" "Bibliography and the Cultural Historian: Notes on the Eighteenth-Century Novel" "Early Music Printing and Publishing" Books and the Social Authority of Learning: The Case of Mid-Eighteenth-Century Virginia" "Elias Smith and the Rise of Religious Journalism in the Early Republic" and "Print and the Public Lecture System 1840-1860." Most of the essays were originally prepared for an October 1980 conference of the same title sponsored by the American Antiquarian Society. Small embossed private ownership stamp on first blank page.
