The stories within \u003ci\u003eDubliners\u003c\/i\u003e are rooted in the rich detail of Dublin life, portraying ordinary, often defeated lives with unflinching realism. Joyce writes of social decline, sexual desire and exploitation, corruption and personal failure, yet creates a brilliantly compelling, unique vision of the world and human experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Joyce redeems his Dubliners, assures their identity, and makes their social existence appear permanent and immortal, like the streets they walk' Tom Paulin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a new introduction and notes by Anne Fogarty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAutorenportrait\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eJames Joyce was born in Dublin on 2 February 1882, the eldest of ten children in a family which, after brief prosperity, collapsed into poverty. He was nonetheless educated at the best Jesuit schools and then at University College, Dublin, and displayed considerable academic and literary ability. Although he spent most of his adult life outside Ireland, Joyce's psychological and fictional universe is firmly rooted in his native Dublin, the city which provides the settings and much of the subject matter for all of his fiction. He is best known for his landmark novel \u003ci\u003eUlysses\u003c\/i\u003e (1922) and its controversial successor \u003ci\u003eFinnegans Wake\u003c\/i\u003e (1939), as well as the short story collection \u003ci\u003eDubliners\u003c\/i\u003e (1914) and the semi-autobiographical novel \u003ci\u003eA Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man\u003c\/i\u003e (1916). James Joyce died in Zürich, on 13 January 1941.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWeitere Angaben\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eBuch (Paperback), B-format paperback, Englisch, 368 Seiten\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Weltbild.ch: Bücher \u0026 Outlet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65926532301149,"sku":"K095631580","price":12.3,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0911\/8915\/0045\/files\/9563158000001A.jpg?v=1789464678","url":"https:\/\/weltbild.ch\/products\/dubliners-james-joyce-9780241405918","provider":"Weltbild.ch Bücher \u0026 Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
