In James Joyce and the Politics of Egoism 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". Rabaté explores Joyce's complex negotiation between these two poles in a study of interest to all scholars of modernism.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"Rabate is at ease with all of Joyce's fiction, from Dubliners to Finnegans Wake, and he can walk down the paths of theory without becoming convoluted and fuzzy. His approaches to Joyce, in their general intellectual sweep and sensitivity, begin to rival those of Fritz Senn...Highly recommended for those interested in Joyce in particular and modern literature in general." CHOICE
"James Joyce and the Politics of Egotism is...exactly the sort of smart, free-associating affair that serious Joyce scholars will immediately recognize as both on scholarship's cutting-edge and thoroughly 'Joycean' in spirit." English Literature in Transition, 1880-1920
