122 Young James Joyce




The History of Literature show

Summary: We often think of James Joyce as a man in his thirties and forties, a  monkish, fanatical, eyepatch-wearing author, trapped in his hovel and his own mind, agonizing over his masterpieces, sentence by sentence, word by laborious word. But young James Joyce, the one who studied literature in college and roamed the night-time streets of Dublin with his friends, laughing and carousing and observing the characters around him, was a different person altogether – or was he? Host Jacke Wilson takes a look at the James Joyce who studied his fellow Dubliners – and then wrote a masterful collection of short stories that he named after them.<br> Help support the show at <a href="http://www.patreon.com/literature">patreon.com/literature</a>. Learn more about the show at <a href="http://www.historyofliterature.com/">historyofliterature.com</a>.
