Onetwo moremons more: LDS Allusions in the Works of James Joyce, with Brigham Barnes

Independent scholar Brigham Barnes explores allusions to Mormonism, Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, and the Book of Mormon in James Joyce's novels Ulysses and Finnegans Wake, leading to a larger discussion of how Mormon Studies might expand to embrace artworks by members of the Church and also works about our culture, texts, and people by others. Music includes exclusive content of a bootleg recording of an excerpt from Murray Boren's opera, The Dead, adapted from Joyce's short story.Liked this episode? Send us a text.
