These Fools kick off the new year with an episode on the impact of James Joyce’s ‘Finnegan’s Wake.’ Brian and Boaz discuss Joyce’s innovative use of language, his unique narrative style, the cultural and historical context of this work, and some of the philosophical insights to be drawn from it. From this conversation Brian and Boaz expand on the relationship between language and literature, the impact of language on perception and meaning, the complexities of etymology, and more.
