Ellen Carol Jones: 'Joysis Crisis compellingly documents how Joyce’s revolution of the word—the “impossible philosophy” of a creativity that is negative and yet also “porous to transcendence”—“wrestles with reality itself,” resulting in truth-telling about the divine and the human. In judicious, enlightening readings spanning Dubliners to Finnegans Wake, Joseph S. O’Leary argues that Joyce’s texts stage a crisis that is both binding and freeing: “an event in writing and language, but also a religious event, a sexual event, and a collective crisis of his city and nation, or of European civilization.” Joyce seeks through his art to grasp the ungraspable world, “a micro and a macrocosm ineluctably constructed upon the incertitude of the void,” to reveal the real, even if that real is “unmasterable by historical vision or philosophical reason, or even language itself.” His art is a labor of transformation and a labor of redemption, sounding the depths of existence, revealing the spectrum of suffering humanity, transmuting that suffering through agonistic yet redemptive writing, and translating historical material into something rich and strange: a visionary aesthetic labor that is “a parable of the eschatological transformation that religions yearn for.”'
