James Joyce and the Politics of Egoism by Jean-Michel Rabaté, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

In James Joyce and the Politics of Egoism a leading scholar approaches the entire Joycean canon through the concept of "egoism". This concept, Jean-Michel Rabaté argues, runs throughout Joyce's work, and involves and incorporates its opposite, "hospitality", a term Rabaté understands as meaning an ethical and linguistic opening to "the other". Rabaté explores Joyce's complex negotiation between these two poles in a study of interest to all scholars of modernism. | James Joyce and the Politics of Egoism by Jean-Michel Rabaté, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
