WAKE: Cold Reading Finnegans Wake

A cold reading of James Joyce’s "Finnegans Wake" just to hear it out loud.

  1. 14 小時前

    Bonus: Zoe Patterson and Joyce Reading Groups

    After months of pondering the motivations of those who choose to take up the mantle of the Wake, and particularly those who get together with like-minded individuals to drink and read and discuss, we finally decided to get to the bottom of the phenomenon. Zoe Patterson is a PhD Candidate at Trinity College Dublin, whose doctoral studies centre on James Joyce reading groups. We talk about the varying usefulness of reading guides (which of course we here at WAKE pretend don't exist), people who jump on the "Joyce Train" halfway through the journey, how reading groups can resemble both Bible Study and Addiction meetings, and end on the earth-shattering revelation that this very podcast has now become academically relevant.

    Episode 33: 3.3 (Part 3), pp516-532

    Numerologists rejoice: WAKE has hit the master number, and to celebrate, our old pal JJ has chosen to drop the subtlety and let his freak flag fly! Leonard Cohen may have said there was a crack in everything, but we don't want to know what people would accuse HCE of doing with it. Join us to discuss the Smashing Pumpkins, one man shows, adaptation theory, Yinzers and their Jawns, hundred year old pornography, and whether or not Toby and TJ have become... gasp... purists?

    Bonus: Guinness and Finnegans Wake (or, Guinnessan’s Slake)

    There are few things more synonymous with Ireland as a creamy, rich pint of Guinness. Plenty of time has been spent on James Joyce’s relationship with the black stuff, yet few have really considered just how much of a role Guinness plays in Finnegans Wake. Through dozens of allusions, references, and cunning puns, the pride of St. James’s Gate bears out an outsized presence through the dream-life of HC Earwicker, and for this special New Years Eve episode, Toby and TJ take a break from reading the Wake to clean a glass, pour to the harp, let it settle, top it off, then try to split the G. Our hearts are full, and our glasses are too: let’s raise a glass to Joyce, the Wake, and a potential future Guinness sponsorship for the podcast! Sláinte!   This week’s readers: Toby Malone, TJ Young References: FWEET: http://www.fweet.org/cgi-bin/fw_grep.cgi?srch=guinness&cake=&icase=1&accent=1&beauty=1&hilight=1&escope=1&rscope=1&dist=4&ndist=4&fontsz=100&shorth=0  Peter Chrisp on Joyce and Guinness: https://peterchrisp.blogspot.com/2019/01/the-frothy-freshener-james-joyces.html  Dannen, Catherine Gubernatis. “The Facts and Fiction Behind ‘the Free, the Flow, the Frothy Freshener’: The Guinness Company and the Story of Joyce’s Lost Ad.” James Joyce Quarterly, vol. 48, no. 4, 2011, pp. 711–26.

    Bonus: A Very Joycean Christmas

    Break out Mr. Tunney the grocer’s Christmas almanac, clear your schedule for Edwin Hamilton's Christmas pantaloonade and the Christmas pantomime Sinbad the Sailor, it’s time for a twelfth night feast dance with the Morkan Sisters, with the chrism for the christmass: in other words, it’s the WAKE Christmas episode! As we take a break on the reading for the holiday period, Toby spends a little bit of time considering how James Joyce approached Christmas in all four of his major works, through the eyes of wistful schoolboys, red-faced drunken uncles, dreamers and roamers, with quaintly underwhelming gifts, half-hearted sobriety pledges, and epiphanies on mortality. Happy holidays from everyone at WAKE: we hope you get your holly and ivy for him and for Christmas!

    Episode 32: 3.3 (Part 2), pp496-516

    It’s always a treat when your smartest friend can join you for a chat: especially when it's the kind of smartest friend who makes you feel smarter yourself. Yes, award-winning visionary Neil Wechsler is back with us again to read a part of 3.3, roll past the 500 page mark, and to get deep into the weeds on meaning, immersion, expectation, and whether or not it’s actually a bad thing to be pretentious. It’s likely a good thing that we gave ourselves a pass on pretentiousness, because then we immediately get right into name-checking Socrates, Freud, Borges, Albee, Camus, and Lorde as we consider what it looks like as denizens at ‘the middle’ of the Wake. Come listen to our exagmination of the facts “thus being reduced to nothing,” and then, when all is said and done, stop to consider what it all would sound like... underwater.

    Episode 31: 3.3 (Part 1), pp474-496

    Under a full moon and with a pint of Guinness in hand, WAKE welcomes our very first Dublin-based reader, as correctly-accented Sarah Kane joins Toby and TJ to kick off Chapter 3.3. Sarah tells us all about participating in Bloomsday as a neophyte Joycean (“a lifeguard that can’t swim”), slips into a Joyce fugue state regardless of best laid plans, and reminds us that a cold read is really just what the kids nowadays call Rawdogging. With the glorious Irishness of it all to bring us through, we discuss Joyce reading groups, Sweny’s Pharmacy, Anthony Burgess, and, in a bombshell twist none of you saw coming, TJ's authentic Irish heritage. This week's readers: Sarah Kane, Toby Malone, TJ Young Progress: 496 pages complete, 132 pages to go; 78.98% read.

    Bonus Episode: Ana Dahlberg

    Grab your torches and buffs, it's time for another episode of Survivor: Finnegans Wake edition... Experts say that the best way to manage unprocessed trauma is to talk it through, to normalise what you've experienced. Here at WAKE we are all about offering all angles and perspectives on Finnegans Wake: and it was only a matter of time until we interviewed someone who did not enjoy the experience! Fascinating polyglot Ana Dahlberg is a professed lover of Joyce, a participant in Bloomsday festivities, and is a certified member of an extremely exclusive club: she has survived finishing Finnigans Wake. Today, we talk to Ana about her experience, which ran the gamut of emotions, from frustration to exasperation to bewilderment to rage, and all the way back again, in such a fashion that the only way she could describe it was to suggest Morrissey write a song about her and the book that just doesn't care what she thinks. In this delightful, non-reading episode, join Toby and TJ with Ana, with the rarest of insights about how it feels to actually finish the Wake (spoiler: not as satisfying as you'd hope).

    Episode 30: 3.2 (Part 2), pp448-473

    No one ever likes to WAKE alone, but sometimes the occasion calls for it. On a dark day in WAKE-world, Toby takes the reins solo to deal with the apuckalips, or at least what feels like it. Along the way, Jaun's entirely inappropriate conversation with Issy provides a distraction, tempered by side discussions of chaos theory, John Cage, Idiocracy, and hope for the future.
