Hardcover. W. B. Yeats went to great lengths to design his self-image which biographers have been slow to challenge. Following on from Blood Kindred (2005), Mc Cormack’s new study of the poet’s idealist views concentrates on the role of J. M. Hone in introducing him to George Berkeley’s philosophy in the mid 1920s and to contemporary Italian thinkers such as Giovanni Gentile and Mario Manlio Rossi. The notion of sacrifice is examined and, by way of contrast, work by Synge, George Moore and Samuel Beckett is shown to challenge the demand for sacrifice which underlies many powerful philosophies of culture. This is a detailed and yet wide-ranging critique of twentieth-century Irish literature, illuminating both well-known and obscure figures.

Hardcover. In 1929, ten years before James Joyce completed Finnegans Wake, Sylvia Beach published a strange book with a stranger title: Our Exagmination Round His Factification for Incamination of Work in Progress. Worried by the confusion and attacks that constituted the general reception of his ‘Work in Progress’ (the working title for Finnegans Wake), Joyce orchestrated this collection of twelve essays and two ‘letters of protest’ from such writers as Samuel Beckett, Stuart Gilbert, Eugene Jolas, Robert McAlmon, and William Carlos Williams. Eighty years later, Joyce’s Disciples Disciplined reads the Exagmination as an integral part of the larger composition history and interpretive context of Finnegans Wake itself.
