Sobre el autor
James Joyce (1882–1941), the emblematic figure of modernist literature, was an Irish novelist, short story writer, and poet known for his complex narrative techniques, innovative use of stream of consciousness, and profound exploration of the human psyche. Joyce is lauded for his pioneering contributions to English literature, primarily through his magnum opus ‘Ulysses’ (1922), which is considered one of the most influential novels of the 20th century. His literary style is characterized by its intricate wordplay, symbolic density, and daring linguistic experiments. Before his groundbreaking work on ‘Ulysses’, Joyce had already asserted his literary prowess with the publication of ‘Dubliners’ (1914), a collection of short stories capturing the everyday life of Dublin’s inhabitants. Additionally, his semi-autobiographical novel, ‘A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man’ (1916), charts the intellectual and spiritual development of a young man, Stephen Dedalus, who is a thinly veiled alter ego of the author himself. ‘Exiles’ (1918), though less known compared with his other works, is Joyce’s only play and reflects his continued exploration of themes of love, betrayal, and self-exile. His last work, ‘Finnegans Wake’ (1939), with its innovative narrative structure and multilayered language, represents the culmination of his experimental style. Joyce’s work continues to be both celebrated for its deep narrative structure and combed through by scholars for its textual intricacies and innovations in literary form.
