具体描述
Originally published in serial format, "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man," is the semi-autobiographical portrayal of James Joyce's early upbringing as an Irish Catholic in late 19th century and early 20th century Dublin. At the center of the novel is the protagonist Stephen Dedalus whose life is depicted from its various stages starting in childhood and moving through early adulthood. The language of the novel changes throughout the book to correspond with the artistic development of Stephen Dedalus as he ages and matures. "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" is a masterful depiction of the process of self-discovery that is indicative of the early stages of everyone's life.
作者简介
詹姆斯·乔伊斯(1882—1941)是爱尔兰著名的现代派小说家，他历时七载完成了代表作《尤利西斯》(1922)。小说的主人公布卢姆是都柏林一家报纸的广告推销员，作者用许多逼真的细节描写这个彷徨苦闷的小市民和他寻欢作乐的妻子莫莉以及寻找精神之父的青年学生斯蒂芬这三个人一昼夜中的经历，实质上是现代西方社会中人的孤独与绝望的写照。作者把小说的主人公和荷马史诗《奥德修记》中的英雄尤利西斯(即奥德修斯)相比拟．把他在都柏林的游荡和尤利西斯的十年漂泊相比拟。
乔伊斯在《尤利西斯》中广泛运用了“意识流“的创作手法，形成一种崭新的风格，成为现代派小说的先驱。他不仅在遣词造句方面刻意创新，而且运用了大量的典故、引语和神话。小说出版后，其中某些词句被认为“淫秽”而受到指摘，因此长期被禁止在英美发行，直到1933年这部巨著才得以公开与英美读者见面。
译者研究本书多年，其译文忠实流畅，而且还对众多典故、引语等作了详尽的注释。

曾经充满豪情壮志地取下书架上的《尤利西斯》，但最终还是灰溜溜的还回去了。乔伊斯在我的心中一直是那么生涩、孤独、狂妄，然后还有一些些失落，至少我不敢那么轻易地靠近他。冲着“艺术家”的名目，花了两天的时间看了这本《一个青年艺术家的画像》，看着一个颖悟的男孩子对...

评分读乔伊斯读得太晚，一如我的冗杂浑沌的人生，早早蜷于幻想，耽于审美。 一面如此渴求着真实，一面却缘木求鱼般久久踯躅在封闭、自溺的体系。 执着于愿望，却忽视了能力；逃避丑恶，却也逃避了责任；厌弃功利，却甚或因此早早迷失自我的方向。 乔伊斯的身上有如此深厚、宽广...

This book has a kind of power to encourage you to find out whom you really are in spite of the obstacles. By the way, I felt sorry for Stephen Dedalus's indifferent attitude toward his family members.
