James Joyce Und Die Gegenwart by Hermann Broch
A compact critical study that analyzes the work of a leading modernist novelist and situates his narrative experiments—stream-of-consciousness, polyglot language, mythic structuring and parody—within the broader intellectual and moral crisis of contemporary culture. It reads his major texts as aesthetic attempts to reconceive language and consciousness, arguing that formal innovation serves both epistemological and ethical ends: to represent fragmented experience, restore communal myths, and renew human understanding. The book defends the writer’s methods against conservative misreadings, explores the role of symbol and ritual, and presents his fiction as a prophetic cultural response that reshapes perception and responsibility in the modern age.
