1939Best.-Nr. 140930New York: Modern Language Association of America March 1939. The truly rare original offprint with only two copies listed by WorldCat worldwide Harvard and National Library of Israel of this groundbreaking early article on James Joyce published two months before the final release of Finnegans Wake. Joseph Prescott was to become a major voice in Joycean studies in particular through his book Exploring James Joyce 1964. A contemporary reviewer of Exploring James Joyce vaunted him as a pioneer "in the American academic study of James Joyce as author of a scholarly article in 1939 and of the first PH.D. thesis six years later. For two decades Joseph Prescott has been recognized as the man who knows most thoroughly the text of Ulysses." Kain pp. 253-6. James Joyce: A Study in Words was published two months before the final release of Finnegans Wake appraising Joyce's development through Dubliners the Portrait and Ulysses to the "Work in Progress". Notably unawed by his subject Prescott sensitively weighs Joyce's relationship to language opening wryly: "The writings of Joyce show a progression from an early interest in words through a mature use of them to the excessive fondness of old age". His final paragraph constitutes a striking satire on the logical conclusion of Joyce's development: "To such writing there is one final conclusion. Joyce will call his next work something like Tabula Rasa and regale the reader with hundreds of pages of closely bound paper each one of which will be innocent of printer's ink a commodity so ubiquitous and domineering in the past that no literature has yet escaped it. Disciples will swarm to the defence of the Master and learned commentaries will be spun out to show how superbly how flawlessly how incomparably James Joyce has rendered for all time the picture of the mind at that obscure moment in our embryological past before we are ushered in the world of sensation and idea - in short the perfectly blank mind. The era of technique will then not be at an end but at its culmination and all men will follow the Master varying perhaps only in the number of pages or again according to the intensity of their artistic vision in the degree of the whiteness of the page. And it shall come to pass in that day that the great writer shall consort with the little and wolf shall dwell with the lamb and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall read them."

Svevo considers Joyce's experience in Trieste where the two first met while examining Joyce's body of work particularly Ulysses. These friends met in 1907 when Ettore Schmitz-better known by his pseudonym Italo Svevo-took English classes from Joyce an expatriate 20 years his junior. The two developed a friendship largely built upon mutual support of each other's literary endeavors. It was Joyce who urged Svevo to continue writing and Svevo who served as a primary model for Leopold Bloom in Ulysses. With the help of Joyce and his new literary fame Svevo's most celebrated work La Coscienza di Zeno was published in 1923. First Edition. Original Wrappers. Near Fine/Dust Jacket Included.

1969Armin Arnold James Joyce. New York, Frederick Ungar Publishing 1969 italian, 125 ST1142 Opera con copertina morbida in brossura.
2022br. In questo classico della biografia letteraria, l'opera e la vita di James Joyce vengono raccontate, analizzate e commentate seguendo il filo di una passione rigorosa e priva d'indulgenza. Monumentale e minuzioso, lo studio di Richard Ellmann ricostruisce l'intricata rete che lega il vissuto all'arte, la singolarità del quotidiano alla vastità proteiforme del genio. Da Dublino a Trieste, da Parigi a Zurigo, emergono così i contorni di un'esistenza sfuggente, fatta di scelte spesso discutibili, amicizie perdute, difficoltà economiche e dolori insanabili come quello per la schizofrenia della figlia. La grandezza dello scrittore non è scalfita dai difetti dell'uomo, ma si nutre proprio dell'intransigenza di Joyce nel non cedere a compromessi, nel mettere il proprio lavoro davanti a tutto, pagandone sempre il prezzo. Ellmann organizza con intelligenza critica l'enorme quantità di aneddoti, fornisce chiavi preziose per la comprensione delle opere e restituisce al lettore l'immagine compiuta di uno dei grandi del Novecento. Con un articolo di Dwight Macdonald.
