Sanatçının Mektupları
Büyük bir yaratıcının mektupları Bu kudretliliğe, bu büyük tour joué’ye, çevrilen bir dümene ve tamamlanan bir büyük tura gülerken işitilebilen bir James Joyce vardır. Ulysses’in dümenlerinden ve turlarından, hilelerinden, kurnazlıklarından ve geri dönüşünden, her şeyden geri döndüğünde tamamladığı büyük turundan söz ediyorum. – Jacques Derrida “Yapmaya çalıştığım şey ile kilisedeki ayin arasında bir benzerlik yok mu sence de? Ben de gündelik hayatın ekmeğini, kalıcı sanat değeri olan bir şeye dönüştürerek insanlara bir tür zihinsel zevk ya da manevi haz vermeye çalışıyorum,” der Joyce, kardeşi Stanislaus’a. Sanatına kutsal bir misyon yükleyen Joyce, hayata uhrevi değil, dünyevi bir büyü verme çabasındadır. Joyce’ta gündelik olanla sanatsal olan, birbirini dışlayan bir çelişki olarak değil, birbirini besleyen bir ilişki olarak durur. İşte Joyce’un gündelik hayatına ışık tutan bu mektuplarda, yalnızca sanatının arkasında yatan özel hayatını değil, aynı zamanda sanatının kendisini okuruz.
James Joyce: Dubliners (English Edition)
"It was Joe Dillon who introduced the Wild West to us. He had a little library made up of old numbers of The Union Jack, Pluck and The Halfpenny Marvel. Every evening after school we met in his back garden and arranged Indian battles. He and his fat young brother Leo, the idler, held the loft of the stable while we tried to carry it by storm; or we fought a pitched battle on the grass. But, however well we fought, we never won siege or battle and all our bouts ended with Joe Dillon's war dance of victory. His parents went to eight-o'clock mass every morning in Gardiner Street and the peaceful odour of Mrs Dillon was prevalent in the hall of the house. But he played too fiercely for us who were younger and more timid. He looked like some kind of an Indian when he capered round the garden, an old tea-cosy on his head, beating a tin with his fist and yelling: «Ya! yaka, yaka, yaka!»

James Joyce - Ulysses
"Mr Bloom reviewed the nails of his left hand, then those of his right hand. The nails, yes. Is there anything more in him that they she sees? Fascination. Worst man in Dublin. That keeps him alive. They sometimes feel what a person is. Instinct. But a type like that. My nails. I am just looking at them: well pared. And after: thinking alone. Body getting a bit softy. I would notice that: from remembering. What causes that? I suppose the skin can't contract quickly enough when the flesh falls off. But the shape is there. The shape is there still. Shoulders. Hips. Plump. Night of the dance dressing. Shift stuck between the cheeks behind." Ulysses chronicles the peripatetic appointments and encounters of Leopold Bloom in Dublin in the course of an ordinary day, 16 June 1904. This is an unabrdged e-book edition of «Ulysses» by James Joyce.
Mi hermano James Joyce
En el centenario de la publicación del «Ulises», la vida de Joyce narrada por su hermano Stanislaus. Recuerdos del entorno creativo y su trágica vida familiar. Ser hermano de un autor famoso confiere grandes obligaciones y muy pequeñas distinciones. El profesor Stanislaus Joyce sobrellevó su carga con nobleza y disconformidad. A pesar de sus reservas, vivió una vida en gran parte moldeada por su hermano, combatió el derecho de los demás a criticar a James y, en el momento de su muerte, llevaba escrita una parte sustancial de las memorias de su vida en común, donde presenta un cuadro de la carrera de James Joyce y de la vida familiar hasta sus veintidós años, con vistazos ocasionales a lo que vendría después. «He leído este libro dos veces y me he sentido fascinado y sorprendido por la personalidad de este hombre (…) víctima de emociones encontradas de cariño, admiración y rivalidad, una lucha en cuyo desarrollo, en ciertos momentos, veía a su famoso hermano con asombrosa lucidez.» T. S. Eliot
Dubliners
Contains Active Table of Contents (HTML) and in the end of book include a bonus link to the free audiobook.
In exploring everyday life and its intersections with death, this enduring collection of stories offers a naturalistic depiction of the working class in early twentieth-century Dublin. Joyce masterfully portrays frustrations and aborted desires to escape the mundane; transformative epiphanies both great and small; and the restraints, loneliness, violence, and contemplations of lives lived.
Though Joyce's subjects were considered as taboo as his language was unsavory, Dubliners was a milestone work praised for its unflinching realism. It remains a transcendent and relatable portrait of the perils—and acceptance—of the human condition.
