“Your friend if ever you had one”– The Letters of Sylvia Beach to James Joyce
Giving her back her voice, the long-lost letters of Sylvia Beach to James Joyce uniquely document her unwavering support even beyond her role as publisher of Ulysses, while also revealing her difficulties with his demanding personality and signs of their eventual breach.
Retranslating Joyce for the 21st Century
The essays in Retranslating Joyce for the 21st Century straddle the disciplines of Joyce studies, translation studies, and translation theory. The newest scholarly developments in these fields are well reflected in recent retranslations of Joyce’s works into Italian, Portuguese, French, Hungarian, Dutch, Turkish, German, South Slavic, and many other languages. Joyce critics and Joyce translators offer multi-angled critical attention to the issues of translation and retranslation, enhanced by their diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds and innovative methodologies. Because retranslations of Joyce have also exerted significant influence on target language cultures, students and readers of Joyce and, more broadly, of modernist and world literature, will find this book highly relevant to their appreciation of literature in translation.
Translation and Literary Studies
By nature a transdisciplinary area of inquiry, translation lends itself to being investigated at its intersection with other fields of study. Translation and Literary Studies seeks to highlight the manifold connections between translation and notions of gender, dialectics, agency, philosophy and power. The volume also offers a timely homage to renowned translation theorist Marilyn Gaddis Rose, who was at the forefront of the group of scholars who initiated and helped to institutionalize translation studies. Inspired by Gaddis Rose’s work, and particularly by her concept of stereoscopic reading, the volume is dynamically complementary to the burgeoning contemporary field of global comparative literature, underscoring the diversity of critical literary thought and theory worldwide. Arranged thematically around questions of translation as literary and cultural criticism, as epistemology, and as poetics and politics, and dealing with works within and beyond the Western tradition, the essays in the volume illustrate the multi-voiced spectrum of literary translation studies today.

Métamorphoses d'Arachné
Le mythe d'Arachné, la jeune fille transformée en araignée pour avoir défié Minerve en la surpassant dans l'art du tissage, a été très commenté dans les domaines littéraire et artistique depuis le Moyen Age, tantôt d'un point de vue négatif, tantôt positif. Le point sur les débats esthétiques majeurs qui ont ponctué l'histoire de la littérature européenne jusqu'au XIXe siècle.
Nocturne de l’âme moderne
Inachevé et posthume, ce recueil en prose paru en 1869 est l’emblème de la modernité. La nouveauté de sa forme surprend par ses ruptures, du poème au conte, du discours à la fiction. Entre lyrisme et cynisme, sarcasme et mélancolie, il dessine la figure de l’artiste en promeneur solitaire de la métropole industrielle, baignant dans un univers hostile à l’idéal. C’est dans le renversement de cet exil que la littérature puise sa force de résistance. S’invente une poétique ou le prosaïque, la rêverie et l’ironie font pièce a la misère, la médiocrité ou la folie, dans le heurt d’images urbaines traversées par l’angoisse du Mal. Esquisses, scènes fugitives, ekphraseis contemporaines, promeuvent la poésie insolente d’un bizarre crépusculaire, au miroir d’un spleen dont l’intensité déchirante fait signe jusqu’à nous.
