Aesthetics of Joyce`s novels culminates in their intertextuality. Each of his works appears to be the widest reservoir of texts of our cultural and literary systems, the most comprehensive encyclopedia of western culture, where recurring segments taken from different sources are included. In particular, Joyce elaborates the intertextual strategy within his single works themselves as well as among his various works. The procedure of communicating ideas across the borders of a text`s isolated sections and separated texts is familiar to all readers of Joyce, whose works are more or less regularly interspersed with recurrent themes and motifs, inner correspondences, and various other types of verbal crosscuttings. Each of Joyce`s fiction also is open-ended. By reshaping these various techniques and artistic strategies aesthetically, Joyce makes his fiction a harmonious wholeness. Therefore, we could re-read all of his novels as a text. The characteristics of Joyce`s novels make possible the attainment of their aesthetical form, individually or as a whole. |
