My primary areas of research are in the works of James Joyce and Samuel Beckett and, by extension, in European Modernist studies more generally. My contributions to this field focus on Joyce and Beckett's manipulation of languages and literary styles and my work is informed by a number of theoretical and critical perspectives, such as genetic criticism (the study of literary manuscripts), textual studies, deconstruction, and translation studies I am currently working on three different large-scale projects. The first is an edition of all-new annotations to Joyce's Ulysses, which updates the work I did for the Alma Classics edition of Ulysses (published in 2012 and revised in 2015 and 2017). The new edition is 620,000 words, which is more than double the length of the Alma edition. It is currently in production at Oxford University Press; the final manuscript was submitted in December 2019 and will be published both in print and on the Oxford Scholarly Editions Online platform in the early autumn of 2021 (the Covid-19 crisis has delayed publication by about six months). My next project is a monograph on the nature of the political in Joyce and Beckett's works, primarily Finnegans Wake and How It Is. The aim of this project is to use Joyce and Beckett to think through a conceptualisation of the political that is not simply partisan or ideological, but rather to be understood in terms of community and communication. This book begins with a genealogy of philosophical considerations on the nature of the political from Aristotle, through Hobbes and Hegel, and to Jean-Luc Nancy, John Rawls, and Richard Rorty. My final project is editing the first ever collection of Joyce's own translations, which span his career as a writer. Because Joyce's translations have never been collected before into one volume, they represent the only aspect of his output that has been almost entirely ignored by critics.
