EDITOR’S NOTE:
1. A handful of major authors are outside the Main Alphabetical List. The reason is simple: their entries are so massive that they would create an obvious
alphabetical imbalance.

2. It is a real pity that quotation and reference inadvertences are legion in one or two authors. Such inaccuracies are marked here with bold, red, underlined.

Literary Allusions in Finnegans Wake 9

If I taught Burgess anything, that was paradigmatic reading. I
discovered it by myself when I was nine, learning the French
irregular verbs in the morning with my private French tutor—a
Paris actress in distress—and the German declension in the
evening with a famous German university professor, who was
teaching indiscriminately Greek, Latin, French, English and, of
course, German, and who had narrowly escaped being put to
prison by the Communists. He was Max Richter, author of the
famous juxtæ. They both made me discover the elegance of
symmetry in the language irregularities, and the beauty of it all
