520 In James Joyce and the Politics of Egoism, first published
in 2001, a leading scholar approaches the entire Joycean
canon through the concept of 'egoism'. This concept, Jean-
Michel Rabaté argues, runs throughout Joyce's work, and
involves and incorporates its opposite, 'hospitality', a
term Rabaté understands as meaning an ethical and
linguistic opening to 'the other'. For Rabaté both
concepts emerge from the fact that Joyce published crucial
texts in the London based review The Egoist and later
moved on to forge strong ties with the international Paris
avant-garde. Rabaté examines the theoretical debates
surrounding these connections, linking Joyce's engagement
with Irish politics with the aesthetic aspects of his
texts. Through egoism, he shows, Joyce defined a literary
sensibility founded on negation; through hospitality,
Joyce postulated the creation of a new, utopian
readership. Rabaté explores Joyce's complex negotiation
between these two poles in a study of interest to all
Joyceans and scholars of modernism
