• W2479894901 abstract "As the son of a profligate wastrel (and a bit of a wastrel himself were it not for his literary abilities), Joyce writes of money and debt with an obvious intimacy. Issues of money and debt inform his writing and, indeed, his writing practice. In Ondt and the the avaricious Ondt chastises the wasteful Gracehoper for his rampant profligacy: Flunkey Footle furloughed fool, writing off his phoney. But Conte Carme makes the melody that mints the money. Ad majorem l.s.d.1 Divi gloriam (fw 418.02-4). Whereas the Gracehoper wastes, pines, and squanders, the Ondt makes the melody that makes money for the greater glory of ... pounds, shillings, and pence. Money is the arbitrator of meaning and the value of this Oneness is cold, hard cash. Money makes money ... of us all. Unlike the reckless Gracehoper, the Ondt invests and reaps the resultant rewards. What I would like to propose is that Joyce's notetaking and writing practice are not without affinities to the Ondt's prudent avarice, although they are also not untainted by a certain expenditure.Frank Budgen provides a rare first-hand account of Joyce's notetaking habits during the composition of Ulysses:As far as concerns the need for tablets [...] Joyce was never without them. And they were not library slips, but little writing blocks specially made for the waistcoat pocket. At intervals, alone or in conversation, seated or walking, one of these tablets was produced, and a word or two scribbled on it at lightning speed as ear or memory served his turn. No one knew how all this material was given place in the completed patter of his work, but from time to time in Joyce's flat one caught glimpses of a few of those big orange-coloured envelopes that are one of the glories of Switzerland, and these I always took to be storehouses of building material. The method of making a multitude of criss-cross notes in pencil was a strange one for a man whose sight was never good.1Joyce is thus like Shem, a malestimated notesnatcher (fw 125.21-22), swiping and storing notes, hoarding material for possible, subsequent use. Only one of the small notebooks Budgen describes has survived, Buffalo V.A.2.a (originally catalogued as VIII.A.5). Luca Crispi writes:This notebook is unlike all the other extant Ulysses notebooks in that it is a 'first-order' notebook; that is, Joyce compiled it directly from the various sources he was reading. As such, this early notebook is different in kind from all the other extant Ulysses notebooks that are compilations of diverse notes, which Joyce re-sorted in new constellations in these extant notebooks.2Although this is the only extant first-order Ulysses notebook, there were many others; in a letter to Ettore Schmitz of January 1921 Joyce estimated that the briefcase containing his notes weighed almost 5 kg (Letters 1, 154). Collating Budgen's account with Crispi's analysis, we can see that Joyce's notetaking progressed through various discrete stages: notes taken directly from his reading would then be selected and copied into other notebooks, where they would be categorised under various headings (either by subject or by episode),3 and then these might be further re-copied and re-sorted into other notebooks or notesheets before eventually winding up in a draft of the text. Seen from a different perspective, Joyce mines his source-texts for lexical nuggets, which he immediately collects in a so-called first-order notebook, this material then circulates through various other notebooks before being eventually harvested into the text. The text of Ulysses reaps what Joyce sowed (and re-sowed) into his notes. Of course, not all collected material is harvested; much (if not most) of the material Joyce collected from his source texts never makes it to the final text. As a notetaker, Joyce is greedy and takes more than he needs. The process of re-sorting his notes across different notebooks is his means of winnowing out (and also, perhaps, figuring out) what he needs. …" @default.
