Bøger af James Joyce

Publicado en 1914, Dublineses es uno de los libros de relatos más unitarios y perfectos alumbrados por un autor. Pese a gravitar en su totalidad en torno a Dublín y sus personajes enmarcados en un periodo histórico muy concreto (el que habría de anteceder en breve a la independencia de la católica Irlanda respecto al protestante Reino Unido, y sobre todo Inglaterra), James Joyce (1882-1941) muestra en los quince cuentos que integran la obra una sensibilidad y penetración difícilmente igualables a la hora de captar la naturaleza humana en sus distintas edades y condiciones, así como en el laberinto de las relaciones personales y sociales. La impecable estructura del libro, que parte de las primeras experiencias infantiles para ir recorriendo el arco de la existencia humana, culmina en esa obra maestra que es el relato titulado Los muertos sin duda alguna una de las cumbres del género.

Dubliners is a collection of fifteen short stories by James Joyce, first published in 1914. They form a naturalistic depiction of Irish middle class life in and around Dublin in the early years of the 20th century.

Experimental novel by James Joyce. Extracts of the work appeared as Work in Progress from 1928 to 1937, and it was published in its entirety as Finnegans Wake in 1939. The book is, in one sense, the story of a publican in Chapelizod (near Dublin), his wife, and their three children; but Mr. Humphrey Chimpden Earwicker, Mrs. Anna Livia Plurabelle, and Kevin, Jerry, and Isabel are every family of mankind. The motive idea of the novel, inspired by the 18th-century Italian philosopher Giambattista Vico, is that history is cyclic; to demonstrate this the book begins with the end of a sentence left unfinished on the last page. Languages merge: Anna Livia has "vlossyhair"--wlosy being Polish for "hair"; "a bad of wind" blows--bad being Persian for "wind." Characters from literature and history appear and merge and disappear. On another level, the protagonists are the city of Dublin and the River Liffey standing as representatives of the history of Ireland and, by extension, of all human history. As he had in his earlier work Ulysses, Joyce drew upon an encyclopedic range of literary works. His strange polyglot idiom of puns and portmanteau words is intended to convey not only the relationship between the conscious and the unconscious but also the interweaving of Irish language and mythology with the languages and mythologies of many other cultures.

La obra monumental de James Joyce. Ulises es el relato de un día en la vida de 3 personajes Leopold Bloom, su mujer Molly y el joven Stephen Dedalus. Un viaje de un día, una Odisea inversa, en la que los temás tópicamente homéricos se invierten y subvierten a través de un grupo decididamente antiheroico cuya tragedia raya la comicidad. Relato paródico de la épica de la condición humana y de Dublín y sus buenas costumbres cuya estructura, desbordantemente vanguardista avisa a cada rato de su dificultad y exige la máxima dedicación. Ulises es un libro altisonante, soez y erudito donde los haya que ofrece una literatura distinta, extraña, ocasinalmente molesta y sin duda excepcional.

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is the first novel of Irish writer James Joyce. A Künstlerroman in a modernist style, it traces the religious and intellectual awakening of young Stephen Dedalus, a fictional alter ego of Joyce and an allusion to Daedalus, the consummate craftsman of Greek mythology. Stephen questions and rebels against the Catholic and Irish conventions under which he has grown, culminating in his self-exile from Ireland to Europe. The work uses techniques that Joyce developed more fully in Ulysses (1922) and Finnegans Wake (1939).

Ulysses has been labeled dirty, blasphemous, and unreadable. In a famous 1933 court decision, Judge John M. Woolsey declared it an emetic book--although he found it sufficiently unobscene to allow its importation into the United States--and Virginia Woolf was moved to decry James Joyce's "cloacal obsession." None of these adjectives, however, do the slightest justice to the novel. To this day it remains the modernist masterpiece, in which the author takes both Celtic lyricism and vulgarity to splendid extremes. It is funny, sorrowful, and even (in a close-focus sort of way) suspenseful. And despite the exegetical industry that has sprung up in the last 75 years, Ulysses is also a compulsively readable book. Even the verbal vaudeville of the final chapters can be navigated with relative ease, as long as you're willing to be buffeted, tickled, challenged, and (occasionally) vexed by Joyce's sheer command of the English language.

Dubliners is a collection of fifteen short stories by James Joyce, first published in 1914. They form a naturalistic depiction of Irish middle class life in and around Dublin in the early years of the 20th century. The stories were written when Irish nationalism was at its peak, and a search for a national identity and purpose was raging; at a crossroads of history and culture, Ireland was jolted by various converging ideas and influences. They centre on Joyce's idea of an epiphany: a moment where a character experiences a life-changing self-understanding or illumination. Many of the characters in Dubliners later appear in minor roles in Joyce's novel Ulysses. The initial stories in the collection are narrated by child protagonists, and as the stories continue, they deal with the lives and concerns of progressively older people. This is in line with Joyce's tripartite division of the collection into childhood, adolescence and maturity.

Con Retrato del artista adolescente, una novela con retazos autobiográficos, James Joyce presenta, de una manera penetrante y divertida, el paso por la crisis de la adolescencia. La obra se puede leer como un Bildungsroman (o novela de la juventud), centrada en la eclosión del artista. En este caso, la tradición católica y la agitación nacionalista surgen en el primer plano de una lucha que, más allá de los convencionalismos, quiere encontrar una forma de expresión que acompañe el protagonista hasta el umbral de la edad adulta.

James Joyce's pivotal collection of fifteen short-stories is lovingly presented in this quality edition. Dubliners is a realistic and unique perspective on Irish middle-class life in the early 20th century, offering a depth of honesty and firsthand experience absent from the history books. Through these stories, Joyce explores much more than a historical representation of Irish life, however. His skill at transforming the human experience into narrative form gives the characters in these short tales a life that transcends their time and place.

Tells of the diverse events which befall Leopold Bloom and Stephen Dedalus in Dublin on 16 June 1904, during which Bloom's wife, Molly, commits adultery. Initially deemed obscene in England and the USA, this novel, revolutionary in its Modernistic experimentalism, was hailed as a work of genius by W B Yeats, T S Eliot and Ernest Hemingway.

From the time of its publication, Ulysses has attracted controversy and scrutiny, ranging from an obscenity trial in the United States in 1921 to protracted textual "Joyce Wars." The novel's stream of consciousness technique, careful structuring, and experimental prose-replete with puns, parodies, and allusions-as well as its rich characterization and broad humor have led it to be regarded as one of the greatest literary works in history.

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is Joyce¿s first novel, published after the previous success of his short story collection Dubliners. The novel is written in a modernist style, with dialog and narration blending together in a kind of stream-of-consciousness meant to invoke the blurriness of memory.Joyce originally planned writing a realist autobiographical novel of 63 chapters titled Stephen Hero. He abandoned the attempt halfway through, and refocused his efforts on Portrait, a shorter, sharper work in the modernist style. His alter-ego remained Stephen Dedalus, named after Daedalus, the mythological Greek craftsman and father of Icarus. Portrait was written while he was waiting for Dubliners to be published, a process that took eight years and so frustrated Joyce that he once threw the manuscript of Portrait into a fire, causing his family to run to save it.The novel closely traces Joyce¿s early years. Like his alter-ego Stephen, Joyce was born into a middle-class family and lived in Dublin as they descended into poverty; he rebelled against his Irish Catholic upbringing to become a star student at Dublin University, and put aside thoughts of priesthood or medicine, the other careers offered him, to become a writer. Joyce doesn¿t shy away from sensitive topics, presenting the discoveries of youth in all of their physical detail, including Stephen¿s teenage visits to prostitutes (which also mirror Joyce¿s youth, and were how he probably contracted the suspected syphilis that plagued his vision and tortured his health for the rest of his life), and the homosexual explorations of children at a Jesuit school.The writing is in the free indirect style, allowing the narrator to both focus on Stephen and present characters and events through his eyes, until the last chapter, where Stephen¿s first-person diary entries suggest he¿s finally found his voice. As the novel progresses, the syntax and vocabulary also grow in complexity, reflecting Stephen¿s own development.Of Joyce¿s three novels, Portrait is the most straightforward and accessible. But it remains just as rich and complex as any masterpiece, with critics across generations hailing it as work of unique beauty and perception.
