Modernists at Odds: Reconsidering Joyce and Lawrence
Modernists at Odds: Reconsidering Joyce and Lawrence

Abstract
This collection pairs two canonical figures generally treated as polar opposites—James Joyce and D. H. Lawrence. Despite their well-known differences in style, personally and professionally their lives and careers bear striking similarities. Both Joyce and Lawrence wrote across genres, including essays, plays, poems, short stories, and novels and incorporated music and singing into their writing; thematically, they engage in many of the same social concerns—sterility, political apathy, spirituality, and cultural paralysis. Both authors are towering figures in twentieth-century legal history for the infamous obscenity trials of their major works (Ulysses and Lady Chatterley’s Lover). In their personal lives, both men were plagued by debilitating illnesses, tumultuous relationships, financial struggles, and chose a life of exile for personal and political reasons, which greatly shaped their bodies of work. While these areas have been well explored in the scholarship of each respective writer individually, approaches that jointly consider these issues in concert do not exist. This volume reexamines Joyce and Lawrence together by thematic categories, including religious/myth structures, social constructs, and cultural pastimes; the contributors find fresh and invigorating ways to reassess the writers, their contexts, and their art.
