Our Exagmination Round His Factification for Incamination of Work in Progress (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781025377445)

"Our Exagmination Round His Factification for Incamination of Work in Progress" is a landmark collection of critical essays designed to analyze and defend James Joyce's complex and experimental "Work in Progress," which would eventually be published as "Finnegans Wake." Featuring contributions from a circle of Joyce's contemporaries-including Samuel Beckett, William Carlos Williams, and Frank Budgen-this volume offers an unparalleled look into the intellectual environment that fostered one of the most challenging works in the Western canon.

The essays within this collection explore the linguistic innovations, historical frameworks, and mythological structures that Joyce employed to redefine the boundaries of narrative and language. By addressing the revolutionary use of multilingual puns and cyclical history, the contributors provide essential context for understanding Joyce's avant-garde vision. This work remains a crucial resource for scholars and readers of modernism, serving as both a historical defense of Joyce's genius and an insightful guide to the dense, dream-like world of his final masterpiece. It captures a pivotal moment in literary history when the traditional novel was being dismantled and reconstructed in bold new ways.
