Antheil also set to music all the poems in Joyce's Chamber Music.
Pound wrote a book on Antheil called Antheil and the Treatise On Harmony, published 1925, the same year as a draft of 17 Cantos, the first volume of Canti and perhaps a key to the style. See also Pound's Machine Art. The same year Pound also wrote his only opera, Viollon.
"The
sound of any pitch, OR ANY COMBINATION OF SOUNDS, can be followed by
any other sound or combination provided the TIME interval be properly
gauged." -- Pound |

Reading Finnegans Wake with not exellent Engish goes not very easy.
Reading
with a lot of unkown words makes the foggy sense. Yet it exists, as
stays some sensation (sometimes CutUp like) - and may alter reader state
Reading, permanently looking throght dictionaries, comes slow and breaks the sensation.
Did Joyce suppose, how people will read Wake - thouse, who don't know all used languages?
Seems
like a space of information - and known languages seem to narrow the
window - what will we see? and if "as above, so below" works, maybe?
Joyce said once he expected the reader to devote his or her whole life to the study of Finnegans Wake. But he was joking [I hope!]. |
