{"product_id":"joyce-race-and-finnegans-wake-len-platt-9780521120340","title":"Joyce, Race and 'Finnegans Wake'","description":"Len Platt charts a fresh approach through one of the great masterpieces of twentieth-century literature. Using original archival research and detailed close readings, he outlines Joyce's literary response to the racial discourse of twentieth-century politics. Platt's account is the first to position Finnegans Wake in precise historical conditions and to explore Joyce's engagement with European fascism. Race, Platt claims, is a central theme for Joyce, both in terms of the colonial and post-colonial conflicts between the Irish and the British, and in terms of its use by the extreme right. It is in this context that Joyce's engagement with race, while certainly a product of colonial relations, also figures as a wider disputation with rationalism, capitalism and modernity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Len Platt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521120349\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521120340\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.74lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.51d","brand":"Len Platt","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44919646191871,"sku":"9780521120340","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e3f77ed0-fbb5-4318-b7b1-56a540df8bb4.jpg?v=1710359081","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/joyce-race-and-finnegans-wake-len-platt-9780521120340","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
