Let's talk about this stuff more via email.PQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14491626995530401441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244755472982220611.post-31460215003207812972015-08-19T07:01:14.511-05:002015-08-19T07:01:14.511-05:00Dali and Joyce is an interesting pairing.

Potts, p.99<br /><br />He's probably talking about surrealist automatic writing rather than painting there.<br /><br />Abebooks has seven copies of the Black Sun booklet! http://www.abebooks.co.uk/book-search/title/tales-told-of-shem-and-shaun/author/james-joyce/Peter Chrisphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11206688095197843271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244755472982220611.post-46314073847757572412015-08-18T09:48:48.660-05:002015-08-18T09:48:48.660-05:00Lawrence's cursive inscriptions were written i...Lawrence's cursive inscriptions were written in pencil and most of his notes were of things you might look up on Wikipedia or Gifford's annotations, like who some historical figures are or places in Dublin.<br /><br />If I had $2,500 to spare I'd snatch up one of those Black Sun booklets right now. <br /><br />And yes the Crosbys are of great interest to me. Currently writing a book on Joyce & Salvador Dali and Caresse Crosby forms an interesting link between them.

Did you get to read any of Lawrence's annotations in his copy of Ulysses, PQ? <br /><br />The Joyce Tower in Dublin also has a few standalone Wake publications, including Harry Crosby's Black Sun Press edition of Tales Told of Shem and Shaun. He was an extraordinary character. There's a fascinating biography of him by Geoffrey Wolff, "Black Sun: The Brief Transit and Violent Eclipse of Harry Crosby.'Peter Chrisphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11206688095197843271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244755472982220611.post-16592942767250319792015-08-17T12:10:56.888-05:002015-08-17T12:10:56.888-05:00No, the way I remember it was T.E.
