"amsolookly kersse": Clothing in Finnegans Wake (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783838316499)

"amsolookly kersse" Clothing in Finnegans Wake uses rhetorical theory, specifically, the relationship between the author, audience, and text as a paradigm for understanding clothing as a visual form of rhetoric. This in-depth study of clothing provides readers with a new way of understanding Joyce's most complex text. Whereas critics often see the characters as conflated, an examination of what each character wears reveals distinct personalities. Furthermore, clothing is a subject that allows for discussion of class, gender, politics, age, ethics, identity, art, and even religion in conjunction with each of these characters.
