He was instrumental in the modernist avant-garde and is known as one of the twentieth century's most influential and influential writers.
Joyce is best known for Ulysses (1922), a monumental work in which the events of Homer's Odyssey are mirrored in a variety of literary styles, most notably stream of consciousness.
The short-story collection Dubliners (1914), as well as Finnegan's Wake (1939), are two other well-known works.
His other writings include three books of poetry, a play, his published letters, and occasional journalism. Joyce was born in Dublin into a middle-class family.
Despite the chaotic family life imposed by his father's volatile finances, he briefly attended the Christian Brothers-run O'Connell School before excelling at the Jesuit schools in Clongowes and Belvedere.
He went on to study at University College Dublin. Joyce and his partner (and later wife) Nora Barnacle immigrated to continental Europe in 1904 in his early twenties.
They lived in Trieste, Paris, and Zürich.
Although the bulk of his adult life was spent in another country, Joyce's fictional universe revolves around Dublin and is populated largely by characters that closely resemble family members, rivals, and acquaintances from his time there.
In particular, lysses are planned with precision in the city's streets and alleyways.
He elucidated this preoccupation briefly, saying, "For myself, I always write about Dublin" because if I can get to the heart of any of the world's cities.
The universal is contained in the particular.
Early life
Joyce was born on February 2nd, 1882, at 41 Brighton Square, Rathgar, Ireland, to John Stanislaus Joyce and Mary Jane "May" (née Murray). He was the eldest of ten living siblings. He was baptized with the name James Augustine Joyce according to the Roman Catholic Church in Terenure's nearby St Joseph's Church on Friday, February 5th, 1882 by Rev. Brute. O'Mulloy is the author of a book entitled John O'Mulloy. Philip and Ellen McCann were his godparents. John Stanislaus Joyce's family came from Fermoy, County Cork, where they owned a small salt and lime factory. Joyce's paternal grandfather, James Augustine, married Ellen O'Connell, the daughter of John O'Connell, a Cork alderman who owned a drapery business and other Cork City real estate. Ellen's family identifies with political king Daniel O'Connell, who had helped guarantee Catholic emancipation for the Irish people in 1829. Seán Mór Seoighe, the Joyce family's ostensible ancestor, was a stonemason from Connemara.
In 1887, Joyce's father was appointed rate collector by Dublin Corporation. The family travelled to Bray, a fashionable small town, 12 miles (19 km) from Dublin. Joyce was first attacked by a dog at this time, sparking his lifelong fear of dogs. He later developed a fear of thunderstorms, which he acquired through a superstitious aunt who had referred to them as a sign of God's fury.
Joyce wrote the poem "Et Tu, Healy" about Charles Stewart Parnell's death in 1891, which was published and distributed to friends. The poem reflected the emotions of elder Joyce, who was furious over Parnell's apparent betraying by the Irish Catholic Church, the Irish Parliamentary Party, and the British Liberal Party, which culminated in a collective failure to ensure Irish Home Rule in the British Parliament. Joyce's expression of betrayal, particularly in the church, gave the appearance that he expressed in his life and art.
His family started to fall into poverty in the first year, owing to his father's inebriation and financial mismanagement. In November 1891, John Joyce's name was announced in Stubbs' Gazette, a blacklist of debtors and bankrupts, and he was temporarily suspended from work. He was dismissed with a reduced pension in January 1893.
Joyce began his studies at Clongowes Wood College, a Jesuit boarding school near Clane, County Kildare, in 1888, but he was forced to leave in 1891 because his father could no longer pay the fees. He lived at home and briefly attended the Christian Brothers O'Connell School on North Richmond Street, Dublin. Joyce's father had a chance to speak with Jesuit priest John Conmee, who knew the family. Joyce and his brother Stanislaus were able to attend Belvedere College, which was free to attend since 1893. Joyce, now 13 years old, was chosen by his peers in 1895 to become a Sodality of Our Lady. Joyce spent five years at Belvedere, his intellectual development was guided by the Ratio Studiorum's commitment to Jesuit education. In his last two years, he demonstrated his writing ability by winning first place in English composition in his final two years before graduating in 1898.
