Book Synopsis Joyce's Abandoned Female Costumes, Gratefully Received by : Elisabeth Sheffield
Book excerpt: While Sheffield's study shares a common presupposition of these recent interpretations, it challenges the idea that the move Joyce makes with this alignment is one that puts him on the side of woman. Sheffield contends that Joyce is not expressing his solidarity with woman or "womanly thought" in opposition to a masculine literary and philosophical tradition, but rather relying on ancient stereotypes to personify a dangerously "other" form of writing.
