초록

Joyce’s Finnegans Wake, a complex experimentation of more than 40 languages, is infamous for its esoteric text. Therefore, the early study guides published on Finnegans Wake tended to be limited to plot summaries and character analyses. However, in order to approach the universe of Finnegans Wake, it is not useful to repeat the overall plot summary from a macroscopic perspective; instead, it is more helpful to give close attention to words by words from a microscopic perspective. In this stance, this essay aims at analyzing Book I Chapter 8 as a template as closely as possible. I have chosen Book I Chapter 8 because this chapter is more readable than any other of Finnegans Wake. More importantly, the way in which the washerwomen narrate and gossip about HCE and ALP reflects how Joyce re-narrates Irish orthodox history as an alternative historiography. Accordingly, this essay, based upon a close interpretation of the text, tries to read the washerwomen’s gossip and chattering as a postcolonial echo rewriting histories of Ireland.

Abstract

Joyce’s Finnegans Wake, a complex experimentation of more than 40 languages, is infamous for its esoteric text. Therefore, the early study guides published on Finnegans Wake tended to be limited to plot summaries and character analyses. However, in order to approach the universe of Finnegans Wake, it is not useful to repeat the overall plot summary from a macroscopic perspective; instead, it is more helpful to give close attention to words by words from a microscopic perspective. In this stance, this essay aims at analyzing Book I Chapter 8 as a template as closely as possible. I have chosen Book I Chapter 8 because this chapter is more readable than any other of Finnegans Wake. More importantly, the way in which the washerwomen narrate and gossip about HCE and ALP reflects how Joyce re-narrates Irish orthodox history as an alternative historiography. Accordingly, this essay, based upon a close interpretation of the text, tries to read the washerwomen’s gossip and chattering as a postcolonial echo rewriting histories of Ireland.
