19. Barrington, Sir Jonah: Recollections of My Own Times. N—536.32: Zerobubble Barrentone, Jonah Whalley. (These names have other references as well but it is likely that they are intended to refer to this author. Joyce told Gorman that his father had a copy of the book, and it is the likeliest source for the story of ‘Borumborad’(492.22).)
20. Basile, Giambattista: II Pentamerone. N—374.31: Basil; 463.22: Basilius; 335.2: madjestky (Punning on Basileus, ‘king’, in a passage about folk-stories.

(Alluding to etching?) Q—72.13: miching Daddy; 253.16: Noodynaady; 30.4: enos; 57.7: Zoans; Hear the four of them! (Although a good deal has been written about Joyce’s use of Blake in the Wake I can find few signs of it, and think that Joyce had left Blake and gone on to other mystics, for whom Blake had prepared him. But Joyce may have remembered such lines as: ‘Eno, a daughter of Beulah . .. took an atom of space & opened its centre Into Infinitude’; and ‘Wondering she saw her woof begin to animate, & not/As Garments woven subservient to her hands, but having a will/Of its own perverse and laboured’—Vala, or The Four Zoas.)

    N—66.23: Cox’s wife, twice Mrs. Hahn; 393.23: her mudhen republican name (Madame Blavatsky’s maiden name was Hahn-Hahn. Hahn is German for cock, and this gives Joyce a tie-up with the hen that found the letter. ‘Twice’ and ‘republican’ refer also to the bigamous marriage of Madame Blavatsky in America). T—Mahamawetma, pride of the province. QT—242.36...243.1...15...22...27: Madame Cooley-Couley ... hundreads elskerelk’s yahrds of annams call away . . . tschaina . . .the devlins . . . mahatmas (The ‘Mahatma Letters’ were supposed to be written by Tibetan ‘masters’ one of them was called ‘Morya’, 53.30; 316.21); 137.25: his year-letter concocted by master hands (They were said to be conveyed from Tibet by tele- kenesis or osmosis); 198.21: telekenesis (This follows ‘reussischer Honddu jarkon’, i.e. Russian Hindu jargon); 585.22: Anunska . . .annastomoses; 615.5: anastomosically assimilated (The recipient, A.

E. and W. L. Hare, q.v.) Madame Blavatsky seems to be a fink between the hen and A.L.P. who wrote ‘lettering you erronymously’—617.30).

    is mainly to Swift’s Journal).
95. Digby, Sir Kenelm: Works. (On Alchemy.) N—313.26: that is Twomeys that is Digges that is Heres. (This is probably Digby, Hermes, and perhaps Thomas of Bologna—three alchemists—as Tom, Dick and Harry; i.e. any writers on Alchemy.)

(‘Jim the Penman’ was James Townsend Savard. A play Jim the Penman, by Sir Charles Young, bears little relation to the facts of Savard’s life, but neither this nor the book seems to have been used by Joyce.)
98. Dio Cassius: Roman History. N—391.23: poor Dion Cassius Pooseycomb (With Boucicault). (Perhaps confused by Joyce with Diodorus Siculus who gave 1138 years as the whole period of his History (I, 5, 1), frequently used the word epiphany for the appearance of a god (I, 23, 5, etc.), and gave the famous description of the trouble after a cat was killed in Cairo (I, 83, 8-9) which seems to be alluded to in 509.19: Who kills the cat in Cairo coaxes cocks in Gaul).

102. Donnelly, Ignatius: The Great Cryptogram. N—281, note 3: Donnelly (This note is to: ‘But Bruto and Cassio are ware only of trifid tongues.’ Joyce conceals the name ‘Bacon’ near many of his references to Shakespeare, and there is probably a cryptogram in this section of the Wake).
103. Dostoyevsky, Fedor Mikhailovich: Crime and Punishment. Q—235.32: Lady Marmela Shortbred will walk in for supper with her marchpane switch on, her necklace of almonds and her poirette Sundae dress with bracelets of honey . . . (Marmaledoff in C. and P. says that he has drunk all his wife’s belongings—‘I have actually drunk her stockings and her shoes ... I even drank her little Angora shawl.’ Joyce’s Marmela seems prepared for such treatment). 472.21: you of the boots; 489.23: In his hands a boot (‘Your boot...the whole day you held it in your hands’, p. 95); 343.11: A forward movement. . . and dispatch (p. 254); 467.1...4...7: the misery billy-boots ... go to a general and I’d pray confessions for him... blood...greeping hastily down his blousyfrock; 517.6: to wend himself to a medicis (Quoting Raskolnikov’s advice when Svidrigailov described how his dead servant came at his bidding.—Crime and Punishment, ‘Everyman’ Ed., pp. 218-19). Q—156.10: raskolly.
104. Doughty, Charles Montagu: Adam Cast Forth. N—363.21: doughdoughty (I suspect that this is a criticism of Doughty’s prose); 361.35: Back to Droughty! The water of the face has flowed.

The name Doyle occurs often in the Wake, usually with no reference to Conan Doyle); 574~5(?): Doyles; 617.14: Conan Boyles (Doyle’s Hist, of Spiritualism is not named in the Wake; but it is a standard work and may have been Joyce’s source for the following, in which the reference to the Wake is given in the form usually adopted here, and the reference to the Hist, of Sp. with the volume and page numbers: 528.14: Eusapia II, 1-20 494.14: Eva II, 92, 95 482.17: Mrs. Hayden I, 36 546.33 Red Indians I, 31; Chapters 4 and 10 of The Land of Mist are amongst the possible sources for pp. 481-500.)

107. Dryden, John: All for Love. ‘Alexander’s Feast’. T—569.32: all for love. Q—346.8: never elding still begidding (But Joyce may have been thinking of Petronius, Hoc non deficit, incipitque semper, which he would know from Jonson’s translation.) 366.11: on with the balls did disserve the fain.

Repeated as here, a formal ending to an Upanishad. “The Peace which passeth understanding” is our equivalent to this word’. Joyce also parodied this in a letter to Miss Weaver, ‘Shan’t we? Shan’t we? Shan’t we?’—Letters, p. 231); 135.6: washes his fleet in annacrwatter; whou missed a porter . . . (The Waste Land, 199-201).

131. Galen, Claudius: Works. N—184.13... 17: lithargogalenu ... cocked and potched in an athanor (I am not sure whether Joyce is considering Galen as an Alchemist or referring to the public burning of his works by Paracelsus. But Alchemy certainly comes into the passage); 424.7: Then he went to Cecilia’s treat on his own to pick up Galen (‘Cecilia’s treat’ is Cecilia Street, for which the entry in the old Dublin Street Directory reads: ‘4, 5 and 6, School of Medicine of Apothecaries’ Hall. Site of Crow- street Theatre Royal and anciently that of the Monastery of the Holy Trinity.’ The School of Medicine fits Galen; Crow Theatre fits ‘Cecilia’s treat’ (cf. ‘King’s treat’), and the Monastery of the Holy Trinity is referred to in ‘on his solo’ and the previous sentence).

Give you the fantods seemed to him. (The title of Hermann und Dorothea is made to suggest German diarrhoea; but the passage occurs in the schoolroom section and ends with a quotation from Huckleberry Finn to whom any form of education ‘gave the fantods’, so it must not be taken as Joyce’s verdict on Goethe). T—71.8: Contrastions with Inkermann (Conversations with Eckermanri). Q—479.29: Weissduwasland. QT—292.22: the crame of the whole faustian fustian, whether your launer’s lightsome or your soulard’s schwearmood. (Laune=mood; Schwermut=melan- choly; Leichtsinn= levity.

Q—88.5: as to whether he was one of those lucky cocks for whom the audible-visible-gnosible-edible-world existed (But Joyce is probably referring to the quotation in Wilde’s De Profundis of ‘Je suis un homme pour qui le monde exterieur existe’, which the Goncourreport Gautier to have said).
143. Goodrich, Samuel Griswold (‘Peter Parley): Peter Parley's Tales about Ancient Greece, etc. T— 240.27: Anaks Andrum parleyglutton; 276, note 4: Parley; 288, note 6: Creeping Crawleys petery parley (These books were used at Clongowes when Joyce was there).

     TN—137.35...138.1: the single maiden speech ... to her Grand Mount . . . hebrew set to himmeltones or the quicksilversong of qwaternions (Three Hamiltons are named here to personify the confusion: ‘Single-speech’ Hamilton is followed by Anthony of the ‘Grand Mount’; and we then meet ‘Quaternions’, a method of mathematical analysis invented by Sir William Rowan Hamilton).
156. Hare, Harold Edward, and William Loftus: Who wrote the Mahatma Letters ? (This seems to be one of Joyce’s sources for information about Madame Blavatsky, and the word ‘hare’ may include their name whenever it occurs.) N—83.1...2: hares . . . between hopping and trapping (With an Alice allusion); 285.4: hare and dart (With the
     German hier und dort, ‘here and there’); 118.24: the hare and turtle pen and paper, the continually more or less intermisunderstanding minds of the anticollaborators ...; 238.21: May he colp, may he colp her, may he mixandmass colp her! Talk with a hare and you wake of a tartars (One of the implications of this is that a Hare has proved the Russian to be guilty. They describe the ‘miracles’ which attended the delivery of the Mahatma letters. A cup was produced from a mound; a broken china saucer was repaired by means of a sliding panel in a supposedly sealed cupboard; a little bell which occasionally rang was concealed in Madame Blavatsky’s skirts—these incidents are described by the Hares and have echoes in the Wake). Q—8.12: the
     Cup and Soracer (The cup and saucer); 243.22: tschaina; 353.36: crockery; 336.4: sorracer; 357.20: sliding panel; 205.12: Which leg is it? The one with the bells on it?

159. Harvey, William: Works. N—462.12: harvey loads of feeling (Harvey’s Works include an account of his post-mortem examination of Old Parr. ‘The fall. . .of a once wallstrait oldparr’ (3.18) alludes to Harvey’s suggestion that Parr’s death at the age of 151 was brought on by his having to do penance for incontinence. Joyce combines Harvey here with Harley, of Mackenzie’s Man of Feeling, who was so sensitive that he died when his proposal of marriage was accepted). 
160. Hawthorn, Nathaniel: The Maypole of Merry mount. The Scarlet Letter. N—204.19: a whole drove of maiden hawthorns blushing and looking askance upon her. T—205.7: And here is her nubilee letters too. Ellis on quay with scarlet thread. Linked for the world on a flushcoloured field (The ‘Scarlet letter’ was sewn on Hester’s dress but she felt as if it had been branded on the flesh—hence ‘flushcoloured’. There is
     also a reference to a Dublin quay, and to the ‘scarlet thread’ of Rahab, the harlot—Joshua 2:18). T—375.27: nonstop marrimont!
161. Healy, Timothy Michael: Letters and Leaders of My Day. NQ—24.18: Healiopolis (See main text. Joyce knew this book well but disliked Healy). NT—176.12: Heali Baboon and the Forky Theagues. N—329.34: Healy.
162. Hegel, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich: Works. N—107.36: Hallhagal; 416.32: The June snows was flocking in thuckflues on the hegelstomes (Hegel was a voluminous writer— hence ‘tomes’—who taught that the order and connection of our thoughts are involved in the order and connection of things, and presupposed that Being and Knowing are identical. The atmospheric conditions in the Wake become chaotic to refute—or perhaps confirm this—as ‘the June snows . . . flocking’ on to the volumes of Hegel’s works suggest that Joyce’s concepts of Knowing and the universe are less tidy than Hegel’s).
163. Hemans, Mrs. Felicia Dorothea: Poetical Works. N—397.31: Mrs Shemans. Q—385.32: the Moreigner bowed his crusted hoed and Tilly the Tailor’s Tugged a Tar (Parodies the first fine of ‘Bernado del Carpo’: ‘The warrior bowed his crested
     head and tamed his heart of fire’). T—342.9: a middinest from the Casabianca.
164. Hermes Trismegistus: The Smaragdine Tablet. N—(?) 81.7: Anton Hermes; (?) 313.27: that is Heres (In a passage alluding to alchemy). NTQ—263.21: The tasks above are as the flasks below saith the emerald canticle of Hermes (Probably quoted
     from A. Symons, see main text: ‘The Structural Books’).
165. Herodotus: History. NT—13.20: our herodotary Mammon Lujius in his grand old
     historiorum. N—275, note 5: hairyoddities (The note is to ‘Things of the past’); 614.2: horodities. Herrera y Tordesillas, Antonio de: General History of the .. . West
     Indies. N—512.18: the herreraism of a cabotinesque exploser (In a passage
     containing the names of many explorers of America).

167. Heywood, Thomas: A Woman Killed with Kindness. T—430.32: the killingest ladykiller all by kindness.
168. Hibbert, H. G.: A Playgoer’s Memories. N—388.29: howldmoutherhibbert (With old Mother Hubbard. Joyce is likely to have used some book to refresh his memories of the stage and this seems to be the most likely one. Many topics mentioned in the Wake are explained there; John McDougall; Sweeney Todd; old pantomimes; and an opera bouffe by Charles Collette called Cryptoconchoidsiphonostomata (135.16), which was followed by Trial by Jury on the stage, and so gives Joyce a good name
     for a nameless crime—are all chatted upon amiably by Hibbert).
169. Hindu Scriptures. T—365.4: daimond cap daimond . . . panthoposopher (Possibly a reference to The Diamond Sutra); 80.24: Agni. ..Mithra . . . Shiva; 303.13: Upanishadem! Q—596.24: 
170. Atman.Hogg, James: The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner. N—69.19: hogg it and kidd him; 60.11: Golforgilhisjurylegs ... Up hog and hoar hunt (The devil in A Justified Sinner is called Gilmartin. Gill in the Wake seems always to mean a devil. See A Census, p. 46); 366.26: oggog hogs in the humand . . . scotchem! 487.7: thogged; 533.35: hoggs (See main text: ‘The Structural Books’).
171. Holmes, Oliver Wendell: The Professor at the Breakfast Table. The
     Autocrat at the Breakfast Table. NT—458.23: Homesworth breakfast tablotts (With Harmsworth). T—434.31: the autocart of the bringfast cable; 124.9: a grave
     Brofesor; ath e’s Brek-fast-table. (See Muggleton for quotations.)
172. Home, John: Douglas. AT—627.24: You’re but a puny. Home! Q—569.35: My name is novel and on the Granby in hills; 570.1: Mine name’s Apnorval and
     o’er the Grandbeyond Mountains (Joyce’s favourite example of a bad writer).

174. Hopkins, Gerard Manley, S.J.: Works. N—26.2: Hopkins and Hopkins. Q—594.16: A flesch and rasch, it shall come to pasch, as hearth by hearth leaps live. (Suggests
     Hopkins’s ‘World’s wildfire leave but ash In a flash, at a trumpet crash . . .’— That Nature is a Heraclitean Fire). Q—293 margin: Spring of Sprung Verse. 
175. Horace: Odes. Satires. Ars Poetica. N—307 margin: Horace; 319.21: Horace (Horace seems to be the name of the tailor who made the suit for the Norwegian captain and to be combined with Horus. But quotations from Horace are fairly
     numerous and rather obvious). Q—54.5: Favour with your tongues! (Odes, III, 1, 2); 57.22: an exegious monument aerily perennious (Odes, III, 30, 1); 58.18: Eheu, for gassies! (Odes, II, 14, 1); 116.30: sesquipedalia (Ars Poetica, 97); 168.13: Sacer esto ? (Sat. II, 3, 161—but this also occurs in The Law of the Twelve Tables)', 280.31: that
     fount Bandusian shall play (Odes III, 30, 1); 551.13: pelves ad hombres sumus (Odes, IV, 7, 16).

     ‘when called Alf’; A.E. is the ‘no street’, Baron Haussmann was responsible for paving many streets). T—386.5: duckasaloppics (From Salop=Shropshire. Cf. Pound, ‘Mr Housman . . . seems hardly to consider any verse save that having good heavy swat on every alternate syllable’—Literary Essays, p. 72).

     puns upon Hume, home and humus.)
180. Humphreys, Henry: The Justice of the Peace in Ireland (4th ed. 1871). NT—134-34: Humphrey’s Justesse of the Jaypees; 275, note 4: Humphrey’s Justice of the Piece.

T—462.1: maitre d'autel (Combines both titles); 465.2: Julia Bride (A story in The Altar of the Dead). Q—464.36: I’m proud of you french (French is a character of whom
     Julia Bride says she is proud); 536.17: husband her verikerfully (Vereker is a writer, the secret of whose works is never penetrated in ‘The Figure in the Carpet’, one of the stories in The Altar of the Dead. It was so involved that the difficulties seemed insuperable until ‘some day somewhere when he wasn’t thinking, they fell, in all their superb intricacy, into the one right combination. The figure in the carpet came out.’ This is another image for the Wake—but the solver dies before he can explain his discovery).
186. Jarry, Alfred: Works.
