They analyze \u003ci\u003eDubliners, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Giacomo Joyce, Ulysses\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eFinnegans Wake\u003c\/i\u003e in light of the legal contexts of Joyce's day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTopics include marriage laws, the Aliens Act of 1905, laws governing display and use of language, minority rights debates, municipal self-government, rentier culture, and regulations on alcohol consumption and licensing. This volume also highlights Joyce's own fascination with law and legal inquiry and explores how, by adopting a unique visual and linguistic style, Joyce constructed an authorial identity that mirrored the process of trademark. It also offers a deeper understanding of Judge John Woolsey's decision in the Ulysses obscenity case and reveals the many ways copyright has affected publication of Joyce's work and the scholarly and aesthetic use of his words. These discussions show how reading Joyce alongside the law enriches both legal studies and literary scholarship.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eContributors: \u003c\/b\u003e Janine Utell - Carey Mickalites - Steven Morrison - Tekla Mecsnober - Richard Cole - Celia Marshik - Andrew Gibson - Robert Brazeu - Adrian Hardiman - Anne Marie D'Arcy - Terence Killeen - Jonathan Goldman - Joseph Hassett - Kevin Birmingham - Robert Spoo - Amanda Golden\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJonathan Goldman, assistant professor of English at New York Institute of Technology, is the author of Modernism Is the Literature of Celebrity and coeditor of Modernist Star Maps: Celebrity, Modernity, Culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 306\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.81 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 14, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42130626936967,"sku":"9780813054742","price":137.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/27d0e4a8761e8bdff1583ae7b1bc5c0b.webp?v=1732612446","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/joyce-and-the-law-hardcover","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
