7.621 "Put us all into it"
the Dublin literary crowd had a pretty solid tradition of writing (and gossiping) about each other, so Joyce's works were just taking this tradition to a much deeper level of honesty, and turning his attention from the 'stars' (eg Yeats, Moore, Russell) to the ordinary

7.830 "transported"
WB Yeats had cited the same address, delivered in October 1901, in a 1916 memoir [wbya101] probably read by JAJ: "I am carried to another age, a nobler society, and another Lord Chancellor is speaking. I am at the Court of the first Pharaoh... 'If you have any spirituality as you boast, why not use our great empire to spread it through the world, why still cling to that beggarly nationality of yours? What are its history and its works weighed with those of Egypt?' ...I see a man at the edge of the crowd; he is standing listening there, but he will not obey... had he obeyed he would never have come down the mountain carrying in his arms the Tables of the Law in the language of the outlaw."JF Taylor was Yeats' lifelong nemesis in debate.
