Djuna Barnes, a forgotten genius? 17 Aug 2006 Listen to this item The American novelist Djuna Barnes wrote 'Nightwood' which has been described as one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century, ranking alongside the work of James Joyce or T.S Eliot, yet few have heard of it. Barnes was a famous figure in Paris in the 1920's and 30's, and now one of her earlier books, The Ladies' Almanack, has been re-issued. It's a tongue in cheek parody of her life in Paris and the sexual exploits of the women she met there. In her life time she never gained the fame and success of many of her contemporaries and ended her days at the age of 90 in relative obscurity and poverty. Nicola Swords spoke to Dr Daniela Caselli from Manchester University and to the publisher Douglas Messerli who met Barnes in 1973. The Ladies' Almanack is published by Carcanet ISBN: 1857548272 The BBC is not responsible for the content of external websites.

Parodying Lesbiansim: Deconstruction in Djuna Barnes's Ladies Almanack Djuna Barnes’s Ladies Almanack can be read as a lesbian text. If we want to classify it as such, we first have to clarify what the term ‘lesbian’ means. According to Judith Butler, “‘to be’ lesbian seems to be more than a simple injunction to be become who or what I already am [It] is a production ” (13). If we assume that lesbianism, or sexuality in general, is a production and thus socially constructed, we can further conclude that this construct leaves room for subversion and resistance. In the following, I want to analyze in what ways Barnes uses imitation and parody in her Ladies Almanack to undermine ostensibly natural categories. Critics have often read Ladies Almanack as a joyous celebration of lesbianism (cf. Jay, 191). I would argue, however, that in this book, Barnes (intentionally or unintentionally) parodies all forms of sexual orientation and thus decomposes the illusion of the stability of sexual identity. Unlike other women who “upon reaching a certain Age, discard Duster, Offspring and Spouse, Evangeline Musset, who is described as “one Grand Red Cross for the Pursuance, the Relief and the Distraction” of girls ( LA 6), was born a lesbian. She was intended to be a boy and therefore, when she “came forth with an Inch or so less than this, she paid no Heed to the Error” (

Samuel Beckett has been and remains one of my main research interests. My book on Beckett and Dante - Beckett's Dantes. Intertextuality in the Fiction and Criticism (Manchester University Press, 2005) - focuses on Beckett's prose work and argues that the intertextual relationships between Beckett and Dante can help us rethink the role of authority in literature. I am also interested in Beckett's late theatre and in the role of manuscripts in Beckett criticism. At present I am completing a book on Djuna Barnes - Djuna Barnes's Bewildering Corpus: Unreadable Simplicity - which adopts an intertextual approach to her writings and is informed by gender and queer theory.

Jamie McDaniel Dr. Marling ENGL 520 16 May 2003 Fatal Attraction: Djuna Barnes's Child Vamp "By this I mean that I am debating with myself whether I shall place myself in some good man's hands and become a mother, or if I shall become wanton and go out in the world and make a place for myself." -Olga, "The Diary of a Dangerous Child" In her journalistic career, Barnes interviewed a number of screen and stage vamps and major Hollywood players, such as the Russian actress Alla Nazimova ; opera and burlesque star Lillian Russell ; Arthur Voegtlin, artistic director of New York City's Hippodrome theatre; director D. W. Griffith ; and Florenz Ziegfield , the manager of the Follies. Most of Nazimova's film roles were of "exotic and spellbinding temptresses," and Barnes complimented her on her ability "to look 'dangerous' and inexact" ( Interviews 353; 355). When Barnes asked him what he wanted to produce on his stage, Voegtlin remarked that "it's only in the back streets that you get the vampires" (

Messerli, a writer in his own right, resigned his post as assistant professor of English at Temple University in 1983 to devote himself fulltime to the press, which moved during the mid-1980s to its present Los Angeles location on Wilshire Boulevard in the Gertrude Stein Plaza. To date, Sun and Moon has published more than 125 major works of drama, fiction and poetry and has distributed another 400.

Study Sheet: Djuna Barnes' Nightwood T. S. Eliot's Introduction , etc. Keep in mind Eliot's view that Nightwood "is not a psychopathic study" (xv) during your reading. His assumption that readers might conclude otherwise is probably well founded, but how would you paraphrase his counter-reasoning? Do you agree with his view? To what extent does Eliot invoke features of Modernism that we have discussed? In your reading of the novel, what Modernist features do you find? Here are Barnes' thoughts on the title of her novel: "'Nightwood,' like that, one word, it makes it sound like night-shade, poison and night and forest, and tough, in the meaty sense and simple yet singular" (qtd. in Plumb 151). Watch for references to "night" and "wood." How does the title resonate in the novel, especially in "Watchman, What of the Night?"? (You should know that there is a coded biographical element here: Thelma Wood was the woman on whom Barnes based Robin Vote.) There is some indication in Barnes' letters that she thought Dr. O'Connor was the center of the novel, and Eliot also has high praise for the portrayal of this character. To what extent does he strike you as the center of the novel? Why would Barnes grant this character so much importance when he is not, at least apparently, at the center of the action? A friend of Barnes, Emily Coleman, suggested that "Most of the book is sentimental shit of the worst kind" (qtd. in Herring 204). Other critics have found the novel satiric, tragic, grotesque, or baroque (or, worse, rococo). What qualities of the novel's style and tone particularly strike you?
