| BEASTCAST! Lex and Alice quiz Adam about his novel Beasts of England | 03 May 2024 | 01:20:22 | |
In this special episode, the Bloomcasters take on their trickiest task yet : criticizing one of their own. Adam Biles’ “Beasts of England”, a canny and hilarious sequel to George Orwell’s “Animal Farm”, has received rave reviews and is already heading into translation in France and India -- but is it really any good? Bloomcasters Alice and Lex take the reins, pushing Adam into the darkest corners of his fascination with farmyards and political arcana. How does one pen a sequel to a classic? What can satire show us about our dysfunctional age that no other genre can? Which pig is Boris Johnson, and does it matter in the least? The gloves are off the trotters, and the true beasts are revealed. We hope you enjoy it. * Alice McCrum is a Ph.D. student in the Department of History at Princeton University. Before starting her graduate work, Alice lived in Paris, where she taught at the Sorbonne, studied public policy at Sciences Po-Paris, and directed cultural programming at the American Library in Paris. Lex Paulson is Director of Executive Programs at the UM6P School of Collective Intelligence (Morocco) and lectures in advocacy and human rights at Sciences Po-Paris. Trained in classics and community organizing, he served as mobilization strategist for the campaigns of Barack Obama in 2008 and Emmanuel Macron in 2017. He served as legislative counsel in the 111th U.S. Congress (2009-2011), organized on six U.S. presidential campaigns, and has worked to advance democratic innovation at the European Commission and in India, Tunisia, Egypt, Uganda, Senegal, Czech Republic and Ukraine. He is author of Cicero and the People’s Will: Philosophy and Power at the End of the Roman Republic, from Cambridge University Press, and is co-editor of the Routledge Handbook of Collective Intelligence for Democracy and Governance. Adam Biles is an English writer and translator based in Paris. He is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company. In 2022, he conceived and presented Friends of Shakespeare and Company read Ulysses—an epic, polyphonic celebration of James Joyce’s masterwork. Feeding Time, his first novel, was published by Galley Beggar Press in 2016. It was published by Editions Grasset in France in 2018 to great critical acclaim. His second novel, Beasts of England, was published in September 2023 by Galley Beggar Press, and will be published in 2025 by Editions Grasset. It was selected as a "2023 highlight" by The Guardian. A collection of his conversations with writers, The Shakespeare and Company Book of Interviews, was published by Canongate in October 2023 Hosted on Acast.

| BLOOMCAST | HOLIDAY SPECIAL | THE DEAD | 05 Jan 2024 | 01:40:37 | |
Our Bloomcasters reconvene on January 6th, “Joycension Day”, to discuss The Dead : the final piece in Joyce’s Dubliners, described by T. S. Eliot as "one of the greatest short stories ever written". Leaning heavily as always on the wisdom of honorary Bloomcasters Declan Kiberd and Colm Toibin, they cover orchestrated dinner parties, ego death, the circularity of human life, the music of words, and much more. Carrying forth a Bloomcast tradition, they also play a festive game, populating competing dinner parties with characters from Dubliners and Ulysses. Happy New Year (and Joycension Day)! * Mentioned in the podcast: ‘The Dead’, by James Joyce: https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Dubliners/The_Dead Prof. Declan Kiberd, ‘Dubliners: The First 100 Years,’ at the James Joyce Center (2014): https://youtu.be/A5qhK7LH6co?si=1zFc7EH7AOpuL1mq Dubliners, with an introduction by Colm Toibin (Canongate): https://canongate.co.uk/books/1488-dubliners/ London Review of Books. ‘Arruginated’, by Colm Toibin: https://www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v45/n17/colm-toibin/arruginated John Huston’s 1987 film adaptation of ‘The Dead’: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rkos62UPwVk “The Lass of Aughrim,” from the Huston film: https://youtu.be/I1CP5Lz2iHE?si=yfxE-koZ3PVngWIc Annie Baker’s Infinite Life: https://www.nationaltheatre.org.uk/productions/infinite-life/ Circles by Ralph Waldo Emerson: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/2944/2944-h/2944-h.htm#link2H_4_0010 * Alice McCrum is a Ph.D. student in the Department of History at Princeton University.

| Bloomcast │ Episode 2 │ Calypso, Lotus Eaters, and Hades | 11 Feb 2022 | 01:14:16 | |
Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922.
In episode two, your hosts provide zippy overviews of Calypso, Lotus Eaters and Hades; respond to listener comments, discuss the centenary; and mull over the arrival of Leopold Bloom (Who is he? Why do we follow him to the outhouse?), animal consciousness, reincarnation, and the point of interior monologue. Guided by Kevin Birmingham, Montaigne, Aristotle, Samuel Beckett, Homer, William James, and (as ever) Frank Budgen, they reflect too on how trauma lives within us, what Bloom can teach us about life and death, and the difference between fictional and historical narratives.
Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you’d like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com
A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris.
In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy.
Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company, Paris. He is the author of the novel Feeding Time, available in French as Défense de nourrir les vieux. * Discover more about Shakespeare and Company here: https://shakespeareandcompany.com Buy the Penguin Classics official partner edition of Ulysses here: https://shakespeareandcompany.com/d/9780241552636/ulysses Find out more about Hay Festival here: https://www.hayfestival.com/home Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company.

| Pages 65 - 74 │ Calypso, part I │ Read by Eddie Izzard | 08 Feb 2022 | 00:23:39 | |
Pages 65 - 74 │Calypso, part I│Read by Eddie Izzard As a dramatic actor, Eddie picked up a Tony nomination for best actor in 2003 for her performance in A Day In The Death Of Joe Egg on Broadway. She was seen recently acting alongside Dame Judi Dench, playing Edward VII to Judi’s Queen Victoria, in Stephen Frears’ Victoria & Abdul. Eddie is also one of the most challenging and respected comedians of her generation, having picked up two Emmys in 1999 and is now performing standup in four languages and has performed in forty five countries. Eddie has therefore been unusual in developing a stellar reputation as a dramatic actor and as a standup comedian. On March 20, 2016, Izzard completed running 27 marathons in 27 days in South Africa as a tribute to Nelson Mandela and raised over £2.6 million ($3.3 million) for Sport Relief, a charity that helps improve the lives of people in impoverished countries. In 2009, Izzard ran 43 marathons in 51 days through England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland for charity and helped raise £1.8 million ($2.7 million) for Sport Relief. In January 2020 Eddie ran the first part of his 'Make Humanity Great Again' journey, an epic charity challenge running through 29 European capital cities over 29 days. And in January 2021 she ran 32 marathons in 31 days in COVID safe conditions on a treadmill at the Riverside Studios in London, again raising money for charity for the Make Humanity Great Again fund. https://www.eddieizzard.com/en * SUBSCRIBE NOW FOR EARLY EPISODES AND BONUS FEATURES All episodes of our Ulysses podcast are free and available to everyone.

Bloomcast │Episode 1│Telemachus, Nestor, and Proteus
Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922.
Voilà! Here is episode one, in which they discuss: the reasons to read Ulysses (and how not to); Joyce's ambitions, gifts, and wiles; the historical, cultural, and biographical context of the novel; the women that brought his epic to life; as well as the first three episodes of the novel,, featuring Stephen Dedalus, Buck Mulligan, William Shakespeare, Leo Taxil, and the most famous nose-picking in Western literature.
Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you’d like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com
A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris.
In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy.
Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company, Paris.

| Bonus Bloomcast: Declan Kiberd, author of Ulysses and Us | 10 Jun 2022 | 01:09:54 | |
In this special episode Alice, Lex and Adam geek out with the man who—Joyce aside—has probably been cited more than any other in our podcast: Professor Declan Kiberd. Professor Kiberd is the author of Ulysses and Us: The Art of Everyday Living, as well as the introduction to the Penguin Classics official partner edition. Buy Ulysses and Us: https://shakespeareandcompany.com/I/9780571242559/ulysses-and-us-the-art-of-everyday-living * In Ulysses and Us, Declan Kiberd argues that James Joyce's Ulysses offers a humane vision of a more tolerant and decent life under the dreadful pressures of the modern world. As much a guide to contemporary life as it is virtuoso work of literary criticism, Ulysses and Us offers revolutionary insights to the scholar and the first-time reader alike.
Leopold Bloom, the half-Jewish Irishman who is the hero of James Joyce's Ulysses, teaches the young Stephen Dedalus (modelled on Joyce himself) how he can grow and mature as an artist and an adult human being. Bloom has learned to live with contradictions, with anxiety and sexual jealousy, and with the rudeness and racism of the people he encounters in the city streets, and in his apparently banal way sees deeper than any of them. He embodies an intensely ordinary kind of wisdom, Kiberd argues, and in this way offers us a model for living well, in the tradition of the literature upon which Joyce drew in writing Ulysses, such as Homer, Dante and the Bible. Declan Kiberd is the author of Inventing Ireland: The Literature of the Modern Nation, which won the Irish Times Prize in 1995. It is one of the most influential works on Irish culture published in the last twenty years. His Irish Classics came out in 2000 and won the prestigious Lannan Prize in the USA. He is the Professor of Anglo-Irish Literature at University College Dublin and is a widely respected broadcaster, critic and reviewer. * A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris.

| Bonus Episode: Lex Paulson on Cicero and the Future of Democracy | 15 Jun 2023 | 01:00:03 | |
A few weeks back we had our dear friend, Bloomsday MC, and eminent Bloomcaster Prof. Lex Paulson as a guest in the library to give a talk on Cicero, drawing on his book Cicero and the People’s Will: Philosophy and Power at the End of the Roman Republic, recently published by Cambridge University Press. Anyone who has listened to Bloomcast will know that Lex is not just a great speaker, but also a great thinker, and this talk is both an exquisite example of his work, and an insight into some of the ideas that shaped his particular and insightful approach to James Joyce’s masterwork. We were so pleased to have Lex with us that evening, and are delighted to be able to release this talk on Bloomsday. Enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | |||

| 📘 BONUS EPISODE📘 A Conversation with Ambassador Dan Mulhall on “Ulysses: A Reader’s Odyssey” | 20 May 2022 | 00:49:14 | |
In this special bonus episode Lex Paulson speaks with Daniel Mulhall, author of Ulysses: A Reader’s Odyssey and Ireland’s ambassador to the USA. Buy Ulysses: A Reader’s Odyssey here: https://shakespeareandcompany.com/I/9781848408296/ulysses-a-readers-odyssey * Marking the centenary of Ireland’s – and possibly the world’s – most famous novel, this joyful introductory guide opens up Ulysses to a whole new readership, offering insight into the literary, historical and cultural elements at play in James Joyce’s masterwork. Both eloquent and erudite, this book is an initiation into the wonders of Joyce’s writing and of the world that inspired it, written by Daniel Mulhall, Ireland’s ambassador to the United States and an advocate for Irish literature around the world. One hundred years on from that novel’s first publication, Ulysses: A Reader’s Odyssey takes us on a journey through one of the twentieth century’s greatest works of fiction. Exploring the eighteen chapters of the novel and using the famous structuring principle of Homer’s Odyssey as our guide, Daniel Mulhall releases Ulysses from its reputation of impenetrability, and shows us the pleasure it can offer us as readers. * Daniel Mulhall was born in Waterford. He has spent more than 40 years in Ireland’s diplomatic service, and is currently Ireland’s ambassador in the United States. He has written and lectured around the world on the subject of Irish literature, and in particular the work of James Joyce, and has worked tirelessly throughout his career to further the impact and reach of Irish writing around the world. In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | |||
