Beskrivning
This book suggests that James Joyce, like Yeats and his fellow Revivalists, was attracted to the west of Ireland as a place of authenticity and freedom. It shows how his acute historical sensibility is reflected in Dubliners, posing new questions about one of the most enduring collections of short stories ever written. The answers provided are a fusion of history and literary criticism, using close readings that balance techniques of realism and symbolism. The result is an original study that shines new light on Dubliners and Joyce’s later masterpieces.

Recensioner i media

Journey Westward is a welcome addition to recent historicist work that focuses on contextualizing Dubliners’ position in the Irish Literary Revival. Journey Westward is certainly a useful resource for those seeking to place Joyce’s early work within the context of Revival and also for those interested in Irish literary antecedents of the collection.
