In the first full-length study of Joyce's direct and indirect use of alchemical allusions, DiBernard shows how an awareness of the alchemical metaphor guides a reader through the richness of Finnegans Wake. For example, the alchemical transmutation of lead into gold parallels the transmutation of the dross and commotion of ordinary life into a work of art. This study shows how the themes of Joyce's novel--death and rebirth, the conflict between physical and spiritual, incest, colors, forgery, and the reconciliation of opposites--relate to the alchemical process. The author then presents a theory, based on alchemical metaphor, on the much debated subject of Joyce's view of the artist.

Anglican, Benedictine monk, Dom Gregory Dix (1901-52) was at the heart of studies of liturgy and worship in the Church of England. He was a prolific author whose magnum opus, The Shape of the Liturgy (1945), has remained on the publishers' shelves to this day. A Very Anglican Monk studies many aspects of Dix's life and works.
