Inhaltsangabe

In this highly autobiographical novel, Joyce introduces us to Stephen Dedalus, the character who reappears in his widely acclaimed work, ULYSSES. A PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST portrays Stephen's childhood and youth in Dublin as he struggles to rid himself of the religious, political and moral constraints of his background and forge his own identity as an artist and as a man.

The novel raises questions of origin and source, authority and authorship and the relationship of an artist to his family,culture and race. It is also an important portrayal of Ireland and Irishness in the late nineteenth century.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

James 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 none the less 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 his fiction. He is best known for his landmark novel Ulysses (1922) and its controversial successor Finnegans Wake (1939), as well as the short story collection Dubliners (1914) and the semi-autobiographical novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916). James Joyce died in Zürich, on 13 January 1941.
