Joyce told several people that he'd included 500 river names, but readers have since tracked down more than twice that number. There are 1117 rivers listed in Raphael Slepon's Finnegans Wake Extensible Elucidation Treasury. Joyce would have been delighted to learn this, but perhaps not surprised. In his 1924 Fair Copy, Anna Livia refer to her husband as 'my old Dane.' Harriet Shaw Weaver then sent a letter to Joyce in which she told him that the Dane was a river in Cheshire. He replied:
To Harriet Shaw Weaver, 13 January 1925
The list, based on Roland McHugh's Annotations to Finnegans Wake, doesn't say where the rivers are. When we looked for the Cheb, the first one on the list, no river came up on google. But after I shared this post on Twitter/X, Ronan Crowley (@Yellworque) found the Cheb, a river in what was then Czechoslovakia. It’s the old Bohemian name for the Eger or Ohre. Thanks Ronan!
DAVY CUNNINGHAM, RIVER MONITOR
At our first meeting, Davy Cunningham, who designs the lighting for operas when he's not reading Joyce, generously volunteered to be our river monitor. Every week, he would check the fweet list and try to locate the rivers, posting the results to the group's Facebook page. He's agreed to let me share his findings here.
'Some of the names are not rivers, but towns or mountains. I imagine this is because, when a name is written on a map, it's not always clear what it refers to. Many of them, particularly in Australia and Africa, are colonial in origin. Since many of the African countries have become independent since 1939, many of these colonial names have been replaced. As Joyce got many names from the index of an atlas the compiler of that index may have made some mistakes. Also, some alphabets don't have some letters, while others have additional letters, so spelling in transliteration becomes flexible. In the US many river names are taken from Native American languages. In other examples, where names are conveyed orally, misunderstandings occur, or the same river has different names in different languages.
Joyce was really only interested in the sound of the words, and their use to him in forming the word-play of the Wake. I don't think he cared much where they were in the world, except maybe the Irish ones.
Some names are very hard to search for, eg Error (p198 - L12). Try asking Google.
I have in one case, p197 - L26 Quagua, included a link to an old sketch map, where the name is written along the bends of the river.
In another case, Trader Beck (p198 - L6), I can find a company of that name in the US, but no river.'
