Abstract
ABSTRACT Situated within the broader context of scholarship into the women who published James Joyce’s Ulysses, this essay troubles received narratives about the influence of Emma Goldman and anarchism on Margaret Anderson, Jane Heap and the Little Review. Contrary to biographical narratives that position Anderson’s relationship with Goldman and anarchism as a brief encounter ending in discord, this essay expands on feminist historians’ analyses of the intergenerational feminism shaping the Anderson / Goldman relationship. I argue that Anderson’s public repudiation of anarchism was a failed tactic to avoid the suppression of the journal, while Goldman’s free speech trial in 1917 inspired Anderson and Heap to publish Ulysses despite and even because of the risk of prosecution.
