This is a major scholarly collection of international research on the reception of James Joyce in Europe.This collection of essays prepared by an international team of scholars, critics and translators, records the ways in which James Joyce's work has been received, translated and published in different areas of Europe. Joyce is now widely considered one of the most influential writers of the twentieth century. The impact of his work has been significant not only in the English-speaking world, but also in many European literatures. The essays in this collection explore the reception of Joyce in Germany, Russia, Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, Italy, France, Spain, Greece and Ireland.Our knowledge of British and Irish authors is incomplete and inadequate without an understanding of the perspectives of other nations on them. Each volume examines the ways authors have been translated, published, distributed, read, reviewed and discussed in Europe. In doing so, it throws light not only on the specific strands of intellectual and cultural history but also on the processes involved in the dissemination of ideas and texts.

"This sumptuous, richly informative and engrossing collection of essays has a great deal to tell us. It is a very fine advertisement for reception studies, and should convince any doubters of their intrinsic usefulness. It is of major significance to anyone concerned with modern European cultural history. The volumes are packed with intriguing details...Part of the appeal of these volumes, then, lies in the 'magpies' nest' effect, the sheer, glittering heterogeneity of interesting material with which they present us...[A] splendid collection of essays." Andrew Gibson, Comparative Critical Studies "meticulously detailed, wide-ranging study...The Reception of James Joyce in Europe...offers a rich, suggestive and densely informative contribution both to our understanding of Joyce and to our sense of a shared European literary heritage. It raises a wealth of questions about Joyce and how he has been received." Katherine Mullin, Journal of European Studies "...the work stands as a gripping analysis of the kaleidoscope responses to Joyce throughout Europe's communities across numerous historical and political periods. "...The Reception of James Joyce in Europe offers a remarkable collection of scintillating essays providing rigorous information and scholarly illumination. The work makes a major contribution to Joyce studies, enriching the field with new perspectives from reception studies, comparative literature, and translation studies. Ultimately, The Reception of James Joyce in Europe undermines those attitudes and critical tendencies that have turned Joyce into the patrimony of an exclusive Anglo-American club. This is a highly recommended book for scholars willing to experience a (European) epiphany."- M. Teresa Caneda Cabrera, James Joyce Quarterly, Vol. 44 No. 1 James Joyce Quarterly"
