Armand Petitjean (1913-2003), the author of this unpublished essay, was an intellectual and critic whose work has not yet received full recognition for its depth and significance. Between 1933 and 1935 Petitjean produced a typescript in English called Essay on the Situation of Joyce, which Joyce himself described as "an amazing study of W[ork]. I[n]. P[rogress]". Petitjean frequented James Joyce in Paris and played a rather important role in the latter's life until Joyce's death in 1941.This edition contains an introduction which outlines the genesis of the Essay and the connected dealings of its author with important figures from the French literary scene of the 1930s. Along with other sources, this section relies upon numerous unpublished letters from Petitjean and Joyce's international milieu. It describes how the essay fits into its contemporary literary context and highlights the significance of the text in the reception of Joyce.***The existence of Armand Petitjean's Essay on the Situation of Joyce was known to the author's closest circle, but it has remained unpublished to this day, to the regret of Joyceans. The publication of this text from the beginning of the 1930s provides us with essential information on the genesis of Work in Progress / Finnegans Wake and on the Joycean community in Paris.A historical overview, analysis, commentary and annotations make up the rest of this volume, which presents unpublished material such as letters from Sylvia Beach, T.
