SEMINAR PROFILE

H21 -
James Joyce: A Survey

This seminar will examine some of the compelling works of James Joyce with particular consideration given to his roots in Dublin and his complex relation to Ireland. We will begin with a selection of stories from Dubliners, go on to consider A Portrait of the Author as a Young Man and end with selections from Ulysses. We will be particularly interested in the variety of styles Joyce uses and how and why he incorporates characters from earlier works into Ulysses. We will also look at the role of Dublin itself as a character in Joyce's works and how Joyce's view of the city does and does not change as his work progresses.
