Reviews
"[Armand] presents an important new understanding of the relationship of Joyce’s work to the evolution of hypertext from mechanization and the new electric media. . . . [Strongly recommended] for its rigorous and illuminating understanding of the importance of technology to Joyce and for the understanding of Joyce’s affinities with major movements of the first half of the twentieth century."
—James Joyce Quarterly

Description
Louis Armand maps out a parallel development in Joyce’s uses of language in Finnegans Wake, arguing that Joyce’s writing provides a model for rethinking the relationship between technology and all forms of cultural production.
