In my own fashion : the life history of Joyce Leininger
No full texttextThe social, religious, and political struggles of Joyce Leininger, a
woman who was born without hands and with legs that extended just below
her knees. Joyce led an extremely successful and productive life despite all of
the barriers put in her way by society’s negative view of her physical
difference. Joyce became a teacher, wife, and mother of three children.
Joyce’s youngest child is the author of Joyce’s life history and the experiences
of all Joyce's children, in relationship to how society treated them and their
mother because of her physical condition.Curriculum and Instructio
Joyce, Michael; 1989-10-03
No full textBiography: Michael Joyce (born 1945) is a professor of English at Vassar College, New York, US. He is also an important author and critic of electronic literature.
Joyce\u27s afternoon, a story, 1987, was among the first literary works of hypertext fiction to present itself as undeniably serious literature, and experimented with the short-story form in novel ways. It was created with the then-new Storyspace software, deployed the ambiguity and dubious narrator characteristic of high modernism, along with some suspense and romance elements, in a story whose meaning could change dramatically depending on the path taken through its lexias on each reading. For instance, a hard-to-find series of lexias presented a new set of facts about the narrator\u27s actions which affects the reader\u27s judgment of the narrator. In The New York Times, Robert Coover called afternoon the granddaddy of hypertext fictions , while The Toronto Globe and Mail said that it is to the hypertext interactive novel what the Gutenberg bible is to publishing. His Twilight, A Symphony (1996) was his second hypertext novel.
Joyce\u27s published books include War outside Ireland: a novel (1982), Of two minds: hypertext pedagogy and poetics (1995), Othermindedness: the emergence of network culture (2000), Moral tales and meditations: technological parables and refractions (2001) and Foucault, in Winter, in the Linnaeus Garden (2015). He is a graduate of the Iowa Writers Workshop. He has been a Professor of English and Media Studies at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie.
Joyce has collaborated with Los Angeles-based visual artist Alexandra Grant. The work Grant has made based on his texts ( The Ladder Quartet and the Six Portals ) has been exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles and Honor Fraser Gallery in Los Angeles.

New Dimensions in a Classic Novel: James Joyce
No full textJames Joyce is a fascinating writer, but he can be a most difficult author to teach. In her dissertation, Lynn Bongiovanni brings a recent viewpoint – empire theory – to bear on this most singular author and finds an interesting paradox. While Joyce inveighed against imperial rule – in this case, Ireland’s “colonization” by the British – he was capable of celebrating the fruits of empire in his writings. Just as you and I may deplore the consequences of what might be called the modern technology “empire,” even as we happily use our refrigerators and computers, Joyce had his own conflicted attitude towards empire.
In this brief excerpt from Prof. Bongionvanni’s full dissertation¸ and in her interview, the author begins to set out the structure and overview of Joyce’s conflicted politics. In the later parts of her dissertation, she goes into detail, using specific passages from Joyce’s prose to illustrate her thesis
James Joyce: From Hero to Author of the Bildungsroman
No full textWhen James Joyce went to Paris as a young man in 1902, he followed a narrative arc fundamental to the European Bildungsromane. Comparing Joyce’s motives and decisions with those of his fictional predecessors in novels by Stendhal, Honoré de Balzac, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, and others, I argue that he acted at first as an unwitting and unreconstructed hero of the genre but that, as he wrote the last two stories for Dubliners in 1906-1907, he earned greater perspective over his life and writing. Little Chandler, Gallaher, and Gabriel Conroy proved to be especially important catalysts for a Joyce in evolution from hero to author of his own Bildungsroman

"Joyce e il cinema delle origini: Circe", by Marco Camerani
No full textThe connection between Ulysses and the seventh art has been widely discussed by scholars who have looked at the filmic interpretations of the novel or investigated the potential of film production as a form of intersemiotic translation that may serve as an analytical tool. Marco Camerani’s book adopts a reverse—albeit complementary—viewpoint and, instead of seeing cinema as the recipient of ideas and inspirations from Ulysses, focuses on the influence of cinema on Ulysses, in particular, on the “Circe” episode. Camerani is not the only author to have looked at film in Joyce rather than Joyce in film. His book, however, has two added values: on the one hand, as suggested by the title, it offers a systematized collection of the references to early movies and their structural patterns that can be traced in “Circe,” and, on the other, the volume presents the results of such research in a thoroughly enjoyable way that makes it appealing to both Joycean and film scholars, as well to a more general readership
