Emendations to the Transcription of Finnegans Wake Notebook VI.B.29

 

Mikio Fuse and others

 

These emendations to the published version of VI.B.29 were made by a small group of genetic scholars, chief among them Mikio Fuse. The emendations were first offered and discussed on an internet discussion group and later incorporated by the editors of the notebooks in the document below.

This list contains excerpts from the printed edition, with the emendations and additions highlighted in red and followed, also in red, by the name of the person who made the suggestion. Emendations include punctuation, errors of transcription or convention, but sometimes also new sources, annotations and locations in Finnegans Wake and the draft history.

 (b)            oClondalkin

Scandinavian Kingdom 20: Northern history states that in one of his viking expeditions Olaf took Dublin, and was made king of it, and of the "Dyflinarskidi," a territory around the city, and this statement is corroborated by Irish annals–and that he was made King of Dublin, and "of the land in Ireland called Fingal"–that he built a "Dun" at Clondalkin, and that he "exacted rent (scatt) from the Irish." Fingal being the northern part of the Dflinarskidi, and Clondalkin being in the southern part, about four miles from the city fortress.

(h)        oRutten

Not found in Scandinavian Kingdom.

Note: This note may be related to the change of the spelling of the word 'rotten' on FW 535.20, which was still spelled like that on level 12 (47484b-362, JJA 59:90). On level 13 (47484b-403, JJA 59:126) however, the word was first typed as "r*tten" and later changed to "rutten" and subsequently changed back to "rotten". This entry may therefore refer to either of these changes.

Note: From this point the entries are in hand 'A'.

History of Galway 2-3: English settlers [...] were called by the native Irish Clan-na-Gall, the Foreign clan, sept, or colony [...] the place was from thenceforth named Ballinagall, or Gallibh, the Foreigners' town [...] Ware [...] says, that the river Galvia, or Galiva [...] seems to have given name to the town [...] De Burgo asserts, that Gallimh, the name of the town in Irish, is the same as locus anglorum, i.e. residence of the English [...] Vallancey [...] was finally of the opinion, that the town received its name from a company of merchants that settled there; Gael, derived, according to him, from Gaelis, or Geilis, traffick or commerce, signifying a merchant, and ibh, in Irish, signifying tribes or families, whence Gailibh, tribes of merchants.

Note: 'Galliv' would be the approximate English pronunciation of the variously-spelt Gallibh, Gailibh and Gaillimh in the above citation.

History of Galway 22n: In their proper places, throughout this work, will be found several curious rules and bye laws, of the old corporation, prohibiting all intercourse with the native Irish. In 1518, they ordered that none of the inhabitants should admit any of the Burkes, M'Williams, Kellys, or any other sept into their houses. "That neither O, ne Mac, shoulde strutte ne swagger, throughe the streetes of Gallway;" and the following inscription, was formerly to be seen over the west gate; "From the ferocious O'Flaherties / Good Lord deliver us."

(a)        time of mind

History of Galway 87: This byelaw being in force, one Thomas Fitz-Simon, a Dublin merchant, in the year 1548, imported a parcel of cloth into the town, which, after paying the accustomed legal duties, was found to be forfeited under this corporate regulation, and was accordingly seized by John Lynch and Edward Lynch, then customers of the town. The importer's only remedy was by complaint to the chancellor of Ireland, the sole resource in those times for many cases, which at present, can be redressed by the common law. The corporation, in their defence, represented that none, except the inhabitants, were allowed to sell any wares within the town, except in gross; and that even for such wares sold in gross custom should be paid according to the ancient form, "used tyme of minde," and confirmed by their charters.

11th EB, 'Dublin' 619d-620a: The alternative title of Dublin University or Trinity College, Dublin (commonly abbreviated T.C.D.), is explained by the fact that the university consists of only one college, that of "the Holy and Undivided Trinity." [...] [MIKIO] The corporation [of Trinity College, Dublin] consists of a provost, 7 senior fellows, 25 junior fellows and 70 scholars.

Dublin Historical and Topographical 7: [...] in 938, at the great battle of Burnanburh (Brumby, near Beverley), Aulaf suffered a signal defeat. Five kings and seven earls were amongst the slain, and Aulaf, son of Godfrey, fled to Ireland with the remnant of his followers, as graphically described in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle [...] "Departed the Northmen in nailed ships / Drear remnant of darts on the sea of Dyng, / O'er the waters deep Dublin to seek, / Back to land of the Erse, depressed in mind."

VI.C.09.054(k)-055(c)

 (e)       beget children to / propagate children

Dublin Historical and Topographical 7-8: Aulaf appears temporarily to have reoccupied the city, but in 945 once more retook Dublin, only to be defeated and slain the following year by Congalac in the great battle of Ath Cliath, wherein '1600 man were lost, wounded and captives, in revenge of Muirceartach, son of Niall Glundub, slain by him some time before.' Of this was said: 'The Thursday of Congalac [GL1] of chiefs / At Ath Cliath was a conflict of heroes; / As long as his children live to propagate children / They shall bring the foreigners all kinds of trouble.'

The strange-looking sum of 1s. 1d. represents the Irish shilling or 'thirteen,' previously referred to (p. 95), and mention of which occurs in a once-popular street ballad, in the lines: 'I gave the Captain six thirteens, / to carry me over to Park Gate.'

(b)        fairly complete ruin

Dublin Historical and Topographical 336-7: Further along the coast is Dalkey, 'occupying the site of a fortified town which began to decay some 400 years ago. Its port was in mediaeval times not only the Kingstown of that age for travellers, but also the place of disembarkation for merchandise coming to Dublin, and the ancient town, which contained seven strong castles, was used as a safe place of storage for the goods until the merchants found it convenient to remove them to Dublin. Only two of the seven castles now remain. One formerly known as "the Goat's Castle" now forms portion of Dalkey Town Hall; the other is a "fairly complete ruin".' [MIKIO]

 (f)       oAs dainty a fine / way

Neighbourhood of Dublin 255: For hundreds of years this has been one of the principal highways leading out of the city, and so far back as 1634, a traveller wrote of it:–"As dainty a fine way as I ever rode, and a most pleasant country."

MS 47477-136, TsMT: When you'll next have the mind to retire to be wicked this is as dainty a way as any. | JJA 51:128 | 1931-1932 [MIKIO] | II.1§6B.2|- | FW 248.28

(g)        othe mind to retire / to be wicked

Neighbourhood of Dublin 266: [description given by Archbishop King in a letter, dated 1275, published in Mant's History of the Church of Ireland]: "Glasnevin was the receptacle for thieves and rogues. The first search when anything was stolen, was there, and when any couple had a mind to retire to be wicked there was their harbour.

(d)            bkbroken-hearted / villain

Neighbourhood of Dublin 410-11: In another poem called "The Chase of Lough Lean" (Killarney), Oisin, who had travelled to Killarney to visit St. Patrick, recounts to him at great length the mighty deeds of the Fena and their hounds, and being indignant at the inhospitable treatment he received from the saint's housekeeper, says:– "I have often slept abroad on the hills, under the grey dew [frost] on the foliage of the trees, and I was not accustomed to a supperless bed while there was a stag on "yonder hill." St. Patrick replies:–"Thou hast not a bed without food, for thou gettest seven cakes of bread, a large roll of butter [miscaun], and a quarter of beef every day." To which Oisin rejoins:– "I saw a berry on the rowan tree [mountain ash] larger twice than thy roll, and I saw an ivy leaf larger and wider than thy cake of bread, and I saw a quarter of a blackbird which was larger than thy quarter of beef. It is this that fills my soul with sadness to be in thy house, poor-hearted wretch that thou art !"

Note: The glosses between square brackets appear in the source.

The entry has been crossed through and used in 535.19-20, but this phrase was already part of the text of III§3B since January 1926. It is most likely that the phrase in the source reminded Joyce of the similar one in his text. In level 14 this phrase was crossed through and changed into 'brokerheartened shugon'.

(e)             ohairy fellows (poilus)

Neighbourhood of Dublin 412: The description of the subsequent adventures of the party in Glennasmole, with giants, "gruagachs" (hairy fellows), and enchantments, however interesting from a mythological point of view, is full of tiresome iteration, without any topographical allusion that would justify further quotations.

Note: OED2, poilu: colloq. [Fr., hairy, virile.] "A soldier in the French army, esp. one who fought in the war of 1914-18." [MIKIO]

(g)        Janua Linguarum

Note: From this point the entries are in hand 'A'.

Janua Linguarum is the title of a book by the Irish jesuit William Bathe. The Catholic Encyclopedia writes that the book "was designed to facilitate the study of languages and thus to aid missionaries, confessors, and students both young and old. For this purpose, 1330 short sentences were grouped under certain headings, the Latin and Spanish on opposite pages, with an index giving the translation of the Latin words - in all about 5300. The work went through many editions in which its method was applied, by various combinations, to eleven languages, including Greek and Hebrew. It was printed at London (1615), Leipzig (1626), Milan (1628), Venice (1655), and by 1637 it had been published in Bohemian, Illyrian, and Hungarian. An English edition (London, 1617) bore the title, "The Messe of Tongues (Latin, French, English, Hispanish)."

(f)        Tiptoft

Story of Dublin 45: The Wars of the Roses in Ireland, as in England, form a dark, unrelieved picture of murder and faction. Once the incoming viceroy, Tiptoft, "the butcher," Earl of Worcester, seized his predecessor, the Earl of Desmond, and had him beheaded. [...] The murder of Desmond was a barbarous revenge for the slight he had put upon [the queen]. Without the knowledge of Edward, Tiptoft, when leaving for his province, received from the queen a command to compass, by whatever means he might, the death of the outspoken Irishman.

Note: Although it is unlikely that this is the direct source, in chapter IV of Walter Harris's The History and Antiquities of the City of Dublin of 1766, we find the following: 'Rochel-lane, called in the antient records of (Christ-church, Vicus Rupellae, and Vicus de la Rochel, had its name from the Rochel merchants inhabiting there, and extended from St Nicholas-street to Corn-market E. and W. on the south side of the flesh shambles, which before. and in the reign of queen Elizabeth (Stanihurst ut supra), were kept in High-street; and upon their removal in the reign of king James I. a range of buildings was erected, and joined to those which formed the north side of Rochel-lane, which from its course on the back of High-street, took the name or Back-lane, by which it is known at this day.'

The chronicler piously adds that "the holy Mother of God on that day manifested her mercy to the townsmen, and delivered them from their foes." The Danes went from the town and ravaged the neighbourhood, so that in the end the king and his witan agreed to give sixteen thousand pounds to be relieved of the presence of the enemy. This was the origin of the Danegelt.
