"Between 1968 and 1970, I participated in one hundred eighty-five hours of tape-recorded conversations with the sculptor Jacques Lipchitz, then nearing eighty years of age. ... The autobiographical information contained on these tapes is valuable for two reasons. In the first place, it provides insights into the drives and preoccupations of a major twentieth-century artist. ... Secondly, and perhaps of equal importance, Lipchitz was witness to some of the most significant moments in the history of twentieth-century art, and his memories extend beyond himself to more general currents of thought during this period.

Solid hardcover.; "This book attempts to guide this reader, whether neophyte or relatively experienced Joycean, through this literature about Joyce, to solve the puzzle of his critical reputation by pointing out the value and usefulness of each item and, occasionally, by suggesting what could or should be ignored, yet always with the final intention of equipping this reader for the vastly more important, fundamental business of returning to the literature of Joyce. To be an efficient guide, this volume must necessarily be selective. I have, however, included all English and foreign-language books, essay collections, monographs, pamphlets, and special periodical issues concerned with Joyce and his works." - Preface. ; Garland Reference Library of the Humanities; Ex-Library; Vol. 328; 390 pages .

Love, Ken". "All the elements that have been mentioned thus far - the social unrest, economic expansion, shogunal ambitions, samurai greed, itinerance, and peasant strivings toward greater autonomy - were parts of a unity. The Muromachi period was blessed with its share of creativity and innovation in its various institutions, but condemned to constant turmoil by an inability to curb the negative consequences of the very liberality that allowed those innovations to take place. In Muromachi Japan the freedom of movement and opportunities for personal advancement by the sword resulted in an anarchy which benefited…

The following chapters necessarily explore various correlations between prejudice and art that are to be found in Victorian novels, and the effect these have on Jewish characters, rather than merely apply a rigid theory to texts, resulting in an overly simple view of the nature of Jewish characters in Victorian novels. For the Victorian novel is far from a set genre, and there is a great deal of diversity among the artistic techniques of the various authors, as well as among their social visions and moral precepts." - author's Preface.
