Cover of Marcia Lemos: Literature against Paralysis in Joyce and His Counterparts (PDF)

Despite his criticism, in Dubliners and elsewhere, James Joyce wrote of nothing but his "Dear Dirty Dublin" (Ulysses, 1922). UNESCO City of Literature since 2010, Dublin is indeed the birthplace of, or the inspiration for, many literary masters and masterpieces. When readers and scholars around the world celebrate the 100th anniversary of Ulysses, this collection, which brings together essays on the work of selected Irish writers (including Joyce), analyses how Irish literature disrupts both paralysis and entropy, making sense of our human "chaosmos" (Finnegans Wake, 1939) by juxtaposing local and universal concerns.
