James Joyce, página 2 de 24

James Joyces Finnegans Wake is a complex and experimental novel that challenges traditional narrative structure and language. The book is known for its dense, stream-of-consciousness style and its exploration of themes such as the cyclical nature of history, the power of language, and the relationship between dreams and reality. Set in Dublin, the novel unfolds over the course of a single night, with characters and events blending together in a dreamlike manner. Joyces use of language in Finnegans Wake is both playful and innovative, incorporating puns, wordplay, and multiple languages to create a rich and layered text. The novel is considered a masterpiece of modernist literature and a groundbreaking work of experimental fiction. James Joyces own background as an Irish writer and his interest in language and myth influenced his creation of Finnegans Wake. Drawing on his knowledge of Irish history, literature, and folklore, Joyce crafted a novel that defies easy interpretation and invites readers to engage with its complex web of meanings. Fans of experimental literature and those interested in the boundaries of language and storytelling will find Finnegans Wake to be a challenging but rewarding read.

Precursora de Ulises, Dublineses es una obra clave para comprender la compleja narrativa de uno de los escritores más importantes del siglo XX.

Ninguna obra de la literatura universal ha sido tan incomprendida y vilipendiada por falsas premisas y fatuos enconos debido a su supuesta ilegibilidad como "Finnegans Wake" de James Joyce, aunque en un primer momento esta postura seria explicable ya que el autor irlandes se propuso escribir novelas para ser estudiadas durante doscientos años. Lo mismo se dijo del Ulises cuando en 1924 un grupo de notables españoles la declararon intraducible.A diferencia de esos criticos e incluso de admiradores que no pudieron comprenderla, la traduccion de Juan Diaz Victoria del primer capitulo demuestra que Finnegans Wake no solo es traducible, sino perfectamente legible, obviamente con la ayuda de numerosos aunque breves y esclarecedores comentarios al pie, que nos permiten comprender la estructura onirica de la novela, "donde los personajes, los escenarios, los idiomas extranjeros y el lenguaje nativo se ven sometidos a una condicion de deriva casi involuntaria".Finnegans Wake, mas que una obra narrativa, es un gran poema al que no le esta vedado ningun recurso: melodico y desquiciante, tierno y nostalgico, obsceno y confesional; pero sobre todo es una extenuante aventura del lenguaje, la imaginacion y el conocimiento.

La obra monumental de James Joyce. Ulises es el relato de un día en la vida de 3 personajes: Leopold Bloom, su mujer Molly y el joven Stephen Dedalus. Un viaje de un día, una Odisea inversa, en la que los temas topicamente homericos se invierten y subvierten a traves de un grupo decididamente antiheroico cuya tragedia raya la comicidad. Relato parodico de la epica de la condicion humana y de Dublin y sus buenas costumbres cuya estructura, desbordantemente vanguardista, avisa a cada rato de su dificultad y exige la maxima dedicacion. Ulises es un libro altisonante, soez y erudito donde los haya que ofrece una literatura distinta, extraña, ocasinalmente molesta y sin duda excepcional.

Finnegans Wake is a novel by Irish writer James Joyce. It is significant for its experimental style and reputation as one of the most difficult works of fiction in the English language. Written in Paris over a period of seventeen years, and published in 1939, two years before the authors death, Finnegans Wake was Joyces final work. The entire book is written in a largely idiosyncratic language, consisting of a mixture of standard English lexical items and neologistic multilingual puns and portmanteau words, which many critics believe were attempts to recreate the experience of sleep and dreams.[3] Owing to the works expansive linguistic experiments, stream of consciousness writing style, literary allusions, free dream associations, and abandonment of narrative conventions, Finnegans Wake remains largely unread by the general public.

Money - and the social effects of having it or not - is too big a theme in peoples daily lives to be ignored by literature. The writers gave the most varied interpretations and looked from the most different angles to the human relationship with money - but the final thought is always up to the reader.The critic August Nemo selected seven classic short stories on this subject:- The Money Box by W.W. Jacobs- Mammon and the Archer by O. Henry- After the Race by James Joyce- The Rocking-Horse Winner by D. H. Lawrence- Filboid Studge by Saki- Winter Dreams by F. Scott Fitzgerald- The Crocodile by Fyodor Dostoevsky

Ulysses is a modernist novel by Irish writer James Joyce. It was first serialised in parts in the American journal The Little Review from March 1918 to December 1920, and then published in its entirety in Paris by Sylvia Beach on 2 February 1922, Joyces 40th birthday. It is considered to be one of the most important works of modernist literature, and has been called "a demonstration and summation of the entire movement". According to Declan Kiberd, "Before Joyce, no writer of fiction had so foregrounded the process of thinking." Ulysses chronicles the peripatetic appointments and encounters of Leopold Bloom in Dublin in the course of an ordinary day, 16 June 1904. Ulysses is the Latinised name of Odysseus, the hero of Homers epic poem Odyssey, and the novel establishes a series of parallels between the poem and the novel, with structural correspondences between the characters and experiences of Leopold Bloom and Odysseus, Molly Bloom and Penelope, and Stephen Dedalus and Telemachus, in addition to events and themes of the early twentieth century context of modernism, Dublin, and Irelands relationship to Britain. The novel imitates registers of centuries of English literature and is highly allusive. Ulysses is approximately 265,000 words in length and is divided into eighteen episodes. Since publication, the book has attracted controversy and scrutiny, ranging from early obscenity trials to protracted textual "Joyce Wars". Ulysses stream-of-consciousness technique, careful structuring, and experimental prose full of puns, parodies, and allusions as well as its rich characterisation and broad humour, have led it to be regarded as one of the greatest literary works ever written. Joyce fans worldwide now celebrate 16 June as Bloomsday.

Dubliners is James Joyces attempt to portray a slice of life of his beloved capital in fifteen short stories recording events in the lives of its citizens, while the tales themselves progress from a consideration of childhood to maturity, old age and, finally, Death. The book has been described as Joyces masterpiece, and it is certainly the best starting point for entry into the obscure and sometimes bizarre world of Joyces later novels. Dubliners remains accessible to the reader in a way that the seemingly incomprehensible ramblings of Finnegans Wake can never be.
