    The Lexicogrammatical Company that James Joyce Keeps

    No full text
    This chapter analyses how James Joyce has been represented in the British press by investigating a large corpus of British newspapers from 1993 and 1995, using the tools of corpus-assisted discourse analysis (for example, see Morley and Bayley eds 2009) and accordingly its focus goes beyond the nine-word window typical of a great deal of corpus linguistics. The chapter first describes the corpus we used for the study, the procedures used to narrow down the data, and the quantitative data resulting from a query for ‘Joyce’. Secondly, it offers an analysis of the semantic sets that are associated with mentions of his name, which means searching through the concordances not for collocates but for co-occurrences of items with similar meanings or with similar grammatical configurations. Finally, it probes what is at stake in the use of a word that does not refer to the author himself, but rather is applied primarily to objects represented as similar to him – Joycea

    A reading of selected writings of James Joyce in relation to the works of Gilles Deleuze (and Félix Guattari)

    No full text
    Chapter One consists in a more complete survey of the writings of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari on the works of James Joyce than has previously been available, together with an overview of Deleuzian philosophy. The focus in the first chapter is on Deleuze and Deleuze and Guattari's reading of philosophers and writers alike as 4 symptornatologists' of their times and the ethico-political beliefs which they implicitly share with Joyce. I relate this to Hardt and Negri's political speculations. The conceptual 'tools' which make up 'schizoanalysis' are set out. The second chapter uses these tools in a 'symptomatological' diagnosis by first setting out and then going beyond Joyce's depiction of the 'paralysis' of the populace in Dubliners and A Portrait to his fuller understanding of our problematic situation in modernity depicted and diagnosed in the masochism of Bloom in Ulysses. In Chapter Three, I look at the epiphany, Deleuze's concept of Joyce's 'epiphanic machine', 'duration' as understood by Bergson and Deleuze, and the Deleuzian concept of 'affect' as potentially liberatory insights, after the preceding focus on negative 4 symptornatological' diagnoses. Together with a critique of the prevailing views of Joyce's epiphany I analyse three stories in Dubliners as illustrative of Deleuze's understanding of the concept of the epiphany. In the fourth and fifth chapters I focus on Issy in the Wake read in terms of the 'bird-girl' of A Portrait and couple this with the Deleuzian concept of the 'girl' as a crucial, but misunderstood, node in what can be seen as the 'rhizomatic assemblage' or 'network' constituting the 'epiphanic machine' of the Wake. In Chapter Four, after first setting out the range of readings of Issy available in current Joycean criticism, I look at 'The Mime of Mick Nick and the Maggies' (FW219.18-252.21) in terms of a further Joycean challenge to modernity's 'oedipalising' tendencies through Izod/ Issy. Here, I place a final emphasis on the significance of incest and the incest taboo in 'the Mime' as the culmination of Joyce's 'symptomatological' diagnosis of modernity, and in counterbalancing this, his use of the 'affect' of colour to offer us a productive 'line of flight'. In Chapter Five I recapitulate on Deleuze's highlighting of the letter in his positive comments on the Wake and then, by using some established discussions in Joycean criticism as an introduction, engage in a reading of Issy's letter (FW 279F 1) as the Wakean 'line of flight' by reading 'her' as liberatory 'desiring machine' with all of its ethico-political potentialities

    The treatment of family life and relationships in the works of James Joyce from Dubliners to Ulysses

    No full text
    PhDJoyce's treatment of family life and relationships reveals both a continuing concern with many of the same themes and a distinctive development from Dubliners to Ulysses. Throughout the works he is concerned with such matters as the nature of blood links, the tension between the needs of the individual and the needs of the family, and the quality of human affection, filial, parental, and sexual. While the early works, Dubliners, Stephen Hero, and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, present the family as a social institution of some importance, Ulysses shows it to be associated with universal principles of prime importance. Moreover, while the first three works present a largely unfavourable and somewhat restricted view of family life, Exiles and Ulysses develop extensively both the fundamental value of family relationships and the complexities of emotion and motive inherent in them. The early concern with the limitations of family life corresponds to similar concerns in contemporary writers whom Joyce admired, Joyce's declared intentions in writing his own works, and his somewhat unhappy experiences with his own family. The shift to a more favourable and more complex view of family life in the later works corresponds to his evident maturation and to his increased recognition of the value of his own family life. Thus Joyce's treatment of family life and relationships is central to his development as man and artist. While many critics have noted that the family is indeed important in Joyce's works, none has examined the subject systematically or treated many of the matters considered in this thesis

    A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1

    No full text
    Spectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1

    Extracting Boer-Mulders functions from p+D Drell-Yan processes

    We extract the Boer- Mulders functions of valence and sea quarks in the proton from unpolarized p + D Drell- Yan data measured by the FNAL E866 Collaboration. Using these Boer- Mulders functions, we calculate the cos2 phi asymmetries in unpolarized pp Drell- Yan processes, both for the FNAL E866/ NuSea and the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider experiments. We also estimate the cos2 phi asymmetries in the unpolarized p (P) over bar Drell- Yan processes at GSI.Astronomy & AstrophysicsPhysics, Particles & FieldsSCI(E)37ARTICLE5null7
