Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

JAMES JOYCE (1882-1941), one of the most influential and innovative writers of the 20th century, born at Dublin and educated at the Jesuit schools Clongowes Wood College, Belvedere College and University College where he studied English, French and Italian. He went to Paris for a year in 1902, where he lived in poverty, served as a journalist, teacher and in other occupations, and discovered Dujardin´s novel “Les Lauriers sont coupés” (1888), the source of his use of stream of consciousness. His first published work was a volume of verse, “Chamber Music” (1907), followed by “Dubliners” (1914), a volume of short stories. “A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man”, an autobiographical work, was published serially in the Egoist, 1914-15. With strong backing from Yeats and Pound, Joyce received a grant from the Royal Literary Fund in 1915. Despite increasing recognition, he continued to struggle against poverty and also suffered from growing eye trouble. He was also troubled in later years by his daughter´s mental illness. “Ulysses” was published in Paris on 2 February 1922, and was received as a work of genius. “Finnegans Wake” appeared in 1939. Both works revolutionized the form and structure of the novel, decisively influenced the development of the stream of consciousness and pushed language and linguistic experiment to the extreme.
