Sobre aquest llibre

James Joyce (1882-1941) was an Irish novelist and poet, considered to be one of the most influential writers in the modernist avant-garde of the early 20th century. Joyce is best known for Ulysses, a landmark work in which the episodes of Homer's Odyssey are paralleled in an array of contrasting literary styles, perhaps most prominent among these the stream of consciousness technique he utilized. Other well-known works are the short-story collection Dubliners, and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Finnegans Wake. This edition includes: A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man Ulysses Dubliners The Sisters An Encounter Araby Eveline After the Race Two Gallants The Boarding House A Little Cloud Counterparts Clay A Painful Case Ivy Day in the Committee Room A Mother Grace The Dead Chamber Music Exiles

Sobre l'autor

James Joyce (1882–1941) stands as one of the pivotal figures in the pantheon of modernist literature. Born in Dublin, Ireland, Joyce's work is rooted deeply in the cultural and socio-political landscape of his homeland, yet his influence on the narrative form and the stylistic innovations he employed reached far beyond Irish shores. He initially attended University College Dublin, where he studied modern languages. Following his graduation, Joyce's literary career unfolded amidst the backdrop of his self-imposed exile across various European cities. His oeuvre, though not extensive in quantity, is rich with complexity and depth. Joyce's 'The Collected Works' encapsulate his lifelong literary achievements, showcasing a progression from the relatively conventional narratives of 'Dubliners' to the groundbreaking stream of consciousness technique he mastered in 'Ulysses'. Joyce often pushed the boundaries of what was deemed acceptable in literature, focusing on the mundane to arrive at the profound. His last work 'Finnegans Wake' epitomizes his experimental verve and linguistic inventiveness, albeit rendering it one of the most challenging texts in English literature. Joyce's depiction of universal themes through the lens of Irish identity, his intricate character studies, and his linguistic feats have cemented his legacy as an author whose works are continually analyzed, celebrated, and dissected in the study of literary arts.
