Trajectory of Art of Exile from Joyce's Ulysses to Beckett's
Concentric: Literary and Cultural Studies 35.1 March 2009: 205-228 Exile, Cunning, Silence: Trajectory of Art of Exile from Joyce’s Ulysses to Beckett’s Trilogy Li-ling Tseng Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures National Taiwan University, Taiwan Abstract Toward the end of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Stephen proclaims his famous defensive formula for future (Irish) art: “silence, exile, and cunning” (247). Stephen’s resolution to exile himself from a forcible religious, nationalistic, and aesthetic identification initiated in Portrait is faithfully materialized by Stephen’s several attempts of literary creation in Ulysses. Forced to roam Dublin city on Bloomsday, the new hero Bloom is living his every moment in exile. Ulysses exemplifies Joyce’s (via Stephen’s) art of exile in featuring the two main male characters as ideologically exiled beings and in spelling out through their cunning characterization a (living and writing) style of exile. It is established that a father-son-like relationship exists between Joyce and Beckett. In spite of Beckett’s protest against critics’ comparing him to Joyce, the route of exile initiated by Stephen on Joyce’s behalf is decisively taken up again and developed thoroughly in Beckett’s major oeuvres, The Trilogy. While the act of exile involves more the physical distancing from the socio-political Dublin city setting as maneuvered by Stephen and Bloom in Ulysses, Beckett’s Trilogy carries out a thoroughgoing exile or abstraction from a specific geopolitical setting, be it a city (i.e. Dublin) or a country (i.e. Ireland). My paper aims at examining Beckett’s diverse interaction with and influence under this Stephen-Joyce legacy in each of his Trilogy stories, primarily focusing on how Stephen’s formula has been experimented to be de-politicized and re-politicized in Beckett’s three works. -
The Performance of Joyce: Stage Directions in Dubliners, Exiles
The Performance of Joyce: Stage Directions in Dubliners, Exiles, and “Circe” BA Thesis English Language and Culture, Utrecht University Lotte Murrath 6145752 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. David Pascoe Second Reader: Dr. Onno Kosters June 2021 Murrath 1 Abstract James Joyce (1882-1941) was drawn to theatre and performance. He was particularly fascinated by the effect of stage directions, which he remediated from the play to different genres such as short stories and prose. This thesis investigates the way in which Joyce has been influenced by playwrights such as Bernard Shaw and Henrik Ibsen, and how they contributed in shaping Joyce in, and outside of, his writing. The curious use of stage directions written in the past tense will be explored in “The Boarding House” and “The Dead”. Subsequently, the effect of sound and the construction of interior spaces on the experienced reliability of Joyce’s works will be charted. Additionally, the credibility of Joyce’s descriptions in the phantasmagoria of “Circe” will be examined. This will determine his proficiency in establishing the ultimate form of realism through the use of stage directions.

The Snotgreen Sea: Water As Metaphor in Joyce's Ulysses 57
FACTA UNIVERSITATIS Series: Linguistics and Literature Vol. 11, No 1, 2013, pp. 55 - 66 THE SNOTGREEN SEA: WATER AS METAPHOR IN JOYCE'S ULYSSES UDC 821.111.09-31 Joyce J. Danica Igrutinović Faculty for Media and Communication Studies, Belgrade, Serbia E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. This paper explores the metaphorical meanings of water in Joyce’s Ulysses within the mythology of water newly established in Modernism via interpretations of ancient myths by the first anthropologists and psychologists. Special regard is accorded to the symbolic journey over water, in which the hero is disintegrated, but then also regenerated by water. Water in Ulysses is associated with exile from home, sanity, and stability, towards all that is primitive, irrational, or otherwise disturbing. As Protean prime matter, water is animalistic and feminine, and connected with sexuality, procreation, and motherhood. The Hades of ‘Hades’ and the Hell of ‘Circe’ are entered through water and contain all the watery horrors of the material. Death by water, which might bring regeneration with it, is amply alluded to and linked with lustral waters and baptism. Treasure yielded and represented by water includes unity, art, and the waters of life. It is suggested in the novel that a middle way might be found between the extremes of spirit and matter, objectivity and subjectivity, Scylla and Charybdis. Key words: water, metaphor, Ulysses The era of Modernism commenced with an enhanced interest in the disturbing but fundamental 'others' – the material, the animalistic, the primitive, and the unconscious – opposed to the stable world of civilization and reason. These were seen as forming the dark, fluid, and chaotic basis of the world and humankind, and were commonly associated with water. -

The Transformative Energy of Children's Literature
Notes 1 Breaking Bounds: The Transformative Energy of Children’s Literature 1. I do not recognise Karin Lesnik-Oberstein’s insistence that the majority of academics who write about children’s literature are primarily concerned with finding the right book for the right child (Children’s Literature: New Approaches, 2004: 1–24). 2. Although publishing for children includes many innovative and important non- fictional works, my concern is specifically with narrative fictions for children. 3. See Rumer Godden’s entertaining ‘An Imaginary Correspondence’ featuring invented letters between Mr V. Andal, an American publisher working for the De Base Publishing Company, and Beatrix Potter for an entertaining insight into this process. The piece appeared in Horn Book Magazine 38 (August 1963), 197–206. 4. Peter Hunt raises questions about the regard accorded to Hughes’s writing for children suggesting that it derives more from the insecurity of children’s literature critics than the quality of the work: ‘It is almost as if, with no faith in their own judgements, such critics are glad to accept the acceptance of an accepted poet’ (2001: 79–81). 5. See Reynolds and Tucker, 1998; Trites, 2000 and Lunden, 2004. 6. Although writing in advance of Higonnet, Rose would have been familiar with many of the examples on which Pictures of Innocence is based. 7. By the time she reaches her conclusion, Rose has modified her position to empha- sise that ‘children’s literature is just one of the areas in which this fantasy is played out’ (138), undermining her claims that the child-audience is key to the work of children’s literature in culture. -
THE THEME of CLASS in JAMES JOYCE's DUBLINERS by David
THE THEME OF CLASS IN JAMES JOYCE'S DUBLINERS by David Glyndwr Clee B.A., University of British Columbia, 1963 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of ENGLISH We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA May, 1965 In presenting this thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements for an advanced degree at the University of British Columbia, I agree that the Library shall make it freely available for reference and study. I further agree that per• mission for extensive copying of this thesis for scholarly purposes may be granted by the Head of my Department or by his representatives. It is understood that copying or publi• cation of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department of FJlglish The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada Date June k, 1965 ABSTRACT There is evidence throughout the stories, and in Joyce's letters, to show that Dubliners should be considered as a single entity rather than as a series of unconnected short stories. This thesis examines Joyce's presentation of Dublin's middle class as a unifying principle underlying the whole work. Joyce believed that his city was in the grip of a life-denying "paralysis", and this thesis studies his attempt in Dubliners to relate that paralysis to those attitudes towards experience which his Dubliners hold in c ommon. The stories in Dubliners are grouped to form a progression from childhood through adolescence to maturity and public life. -

Despite the pressures of many pending student papers and a newborn son, Dr. Walkiewicz always found time for me. He returned my chapters with not only remarkable speed, but more importantly with precise and professional editing, contributing significantly to the content and readability of this study. His gentle tact and seemingly limitless expanse of knowledge made the nearly impossible an achievable task. A large portion of the success of this study is due to Dr. Walkiewicz's hand; the faults to my own. I also want to extend my sincere appreciation to the members of my examination committee for their helpful comments: Dr. Tom Warren for his continued sense of good humor and support, Dr. Mary Rohrberger for her willingness to join the committee at such a late date, and Dr. Ed Lawry for his insightful and kind comments as the outside member. -

Music in Dubliners

It has been accepted for inclusion in Colby Quarterly by an authorized editor of Digital Commons @ Colby. Haas: Music in Dubliners Music in Dubliners by ROB ERTHAAS AM ES JOY e E was a musician before he ever became a writer. 1 He learned music as a child~ perfonned it for his family, friends~ and the public as a young Jman, and loved the arthis whole life long. The books ofHodgart and Worthington and of Bowen have traced how deeply and pervasively its role is felt throughout Joyce's fiction. 2 The great novels ofhis maturity, Ulysses and Finnegans Wake. contain more than a thousand musical episodes, incidents, and allusions. If Joyce's early fiction has less than this profusion~ it is perhaps simply because at the time he was not yet so bold an experimenter in literary style. The early works were~ nevertheless, produced by a man who was actively studying music, who was near his peak as a musical performer, and who still at times contemplated making music his life ~s career. When Joyce introduces music in his writing~ it is with the authority and significance ofan expert; and it is surely worth OUf while as readers to attend to it. In the present essay I would like to focus on the music inJoyce's early volume ofshort stories, Dubliners. -

Ibsen in IrelandBy GioHuh... I like this play a lot more than I expected to, and a star's worth more than the previous three reviewers. I understand that there's infinitesimally little chance that I'll ever see it staged, alas, and that even Ibsen is out of theatrical fashion these days, and yet if I were a theater manager, I'd give it a whirl. It's quite obviously modeled on Ibsen, but it doesn't suffer from that! In fact, it's damned good "Ibsen" -- and since English was Joyce's tongue, it reads more naturally than most of the translations of Ibsen from Norwegian. The dialogue is supple, the characterizations quite subtle, and the "social themes" are well and slyly embedded in the drama. The language reminds me of the delicacy of Joyce's short stories in Dubliners. "Exiles" isn't a melodrama, it isn't preachy or verbose like GB Shaw, and it doesn't belabor itself like Eugene O'Neill. And it doesn't "end" with all questions answered. What's not to like???I'm not going to reveal the plot or the themes.
