Title: James Joyce's Judaic Other (Contraversions: Jews and Other Differences)
Description: Stanford, Stanford University Press, 1999. 194 pp. Good copy. Paperback. The work of Emmanuel Levinas, Sander Gilman, Gillian Rose, Homi Bhabha, among others, is brought to bear on the literature, by Jews and non-Jews alike, that has forged the representation of Jews and Judaism in this century. Joyce was familiar with this literature, like that of Theodor Herzl. Joyce sholarship has largely neglected even these sources, however, including Max Nordau, who contributed significantly to the philosophy of Zionism, and the literature on the psychobiology of race, so prominent in the fin de siècle, all of which circulates around and through Joyce’s depictions of Jews and Jewishness.
