This second edition of The Cambridge Companion to Joyce contains several new and revised essays, reflecting an increased emphasis on Joyce’s politics, a fresh sense of the importance of his engagement with Ireland, and the changes wrought by gender studies on criticism of his work. The Companion gathers an international team of leading scholars who shed light on Joyce’s work and life. The contributions are informative, stimulating and full of rich and accessible insights which will provoke thought and discussion in and out of the classroom. The Companion’s extensive suggestions for further reading offer readers the necessary tools for further informed exploration of Joyce studies. This volume is designed primarily as a students’ reference work (although it is organized so that it can also be read from cover to cover), and will deepen and extend the enjoyment and understanding of Joyce for the new reader.
