Description for Joyce and the Science of Rhythm (New Directions in Irish and Irish American Literature)
Hardcover. Joyce and the Science of Rhythm situates the modernist writings of James Joyce within the context of the scientific discourse on 'rhythm' that emerged in the late nineteenth century. Series: New Directions in Irish & Irish American Literature. Num Pages: 223 pages, biography. BIC Classification: D; DS; JFC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 219 x 153 x 19. Weight in Grams: 402.
This book situates Joyce's critical writings within the context of an emerging discourse on the psychology of rhythm, suggesting that A Portrait of the Artist dramatizes the experience of rhythm as the subject matter of the modernist novel. Including comparative analyses of the lyrical prose of Virginia Woolf and the 'cadences' of the Imagists, Martin outlines a new concept of the 'modern period' that describes the interaction between poetry and prose in the literature of the early twentieth century.
