A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is the first novel of Irish writer James Joyce. A Künstlerroman written in a modernist style it traces the religious and intellectual awakening of young Stephen Dedalus Joyce's fictional alter ego whose surname alludes to Daedalus Greek mythology's consummate craftsman. 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. A Portrait began life in 1904 as Stephen Hero—a projected 63-chapter autobiographical novel in a realistic style. After 25 chapters Joyce abandoned Stephen Hero in 1907 and set to reworking its themes and protagonist into a condensed five-chapter novel dispensing with strict realism and making extensive use of free indirect speech that allows the reader to peer into Stephen's developing consciousness. American modernist poet Ezra Pound had the novel serialised in the English literary magazine The Egoist in 1914 and 1915 and published as a book in 1916 by B. W. Huebsch of New York. The publication of A Portrait and the short story collection Dubliners 1914 earned Joyce a place at the forefront of literary modernism. James Augustine Aloysius Joyce 2 February 1882 – 13 January 1941 was an Irish novelist poet and literary critic. He contributed to the modernist avant-garde movement and is regarded as one of the most influential and important writers of the 20th century. Joyce's novel Ulysses 1922 is a landmark in which the episodes of Homer's Odyssey are paralleled in a variety of literary styles particularly stream of consciousness. Other well-known works are the short-story collection Dubliners 1914 and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man 1916 and Finnegans Wake 1939. His other writings include three books of poetry a play letters and occasional journalism. Joyce was born in Dublin into a middle-class family. He attended the Jesuit Clongowes Wood College in County Kildare then briefly the Christian Brothers-run Connell School. Despite the chaotic family life imposed by his father's unpredictable finances he excelled at the Jesuit Belvedere College and graduated from University College in Dublin in 1902. In 1904 he met his future wife Nora Barnacle and they moved to mainland Europe. He briefly worked in Pula and then moved to Trieste in Austria-Hungary working as an English instructor. Except for an eight-month stay in Rome working as a correspondence clerk and three visits to Dublin Joyce resided there until 1915. In Trieste he published his book of poems Chamber Music and his short story collection Dubliners and he began serially publishing A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man in the English magazine The Egoist. During most of World War I Joyce lived in Zürich Switzerland and worked on Ulysses. After the war he briefly returned to Trieste and then moved to Paris in 1920 which became his primary residence until 1940. Ulysses was first published in Paris in 1922 but its publication in England and the United States was prohibited because of its perceived obscenity. Copies were smuggled into both countries and pirated versions were printed until the mid-1930s when publication finally became legal. Joyce started his next major work Finnegans Wake in 1923 publishing it sixteen years later in 1939. Between these years Joyce travelled widely. He and Nora were married in a civil ceremony in London in 1930. He made a number of trips to Switzerland frequently seeking treatment for his increasingly severe eye problems and psychological help for his daughter Lucia. When France was occupied by Germany during World War II Joyce moved back to Zürich in 1940. He died there in 1941 after surgery for a perforated ulcer less than one month before his 59th birthday. Ulysses frequently ranks high in lists of great books of literature and the academic literature analysing his work is extensive and ongoing. Many writers filmmakers and other artists have been influenced by his stylistic innovations such as his meticulous attention to detail use of interior monologue wordplay and the radical transformation of traditional plot and character development. Though most of his adult life was spent abroad his fictional universe centres on Dublin and is largely populated by characters who closely resemble family members enemies and friends from his time there. Ulysses in particular is set in the streets and alleyways of the city. Joyce is quoted as saying 'For myself I always write about Dublin because if I can get to the heart of Dublin I can get to the heart of all the cities of the world. In the particular is contained the universal'.</p> Jonathan Cape. hardcover
