The publication of James Joyce's Dubliners in 1914 was the result of ten years battling with publishers, resisting their demands to remove swear words, real place names and much else. Although only twenty-four when he signed his first publishing contract for the book, Joyce already knew its worth: to alter it in any way would "retard the course of civilization in Ireland." Joyce's aim was to tell the truth-- to create a work of art that would reflect life in Ireland at the turn of the last century and by rejecting euphemism, to reveal to the Irish their unromantic reality, which would lead to the spiritual liberation of the country. Each of the fifteen stories offers glimpses into the lives of ordinary Dubliners-- a death, an encounter, an opportunity not taken, a memory rekindled - and collectively they paint a portrait of a nation. This edition is introduced and annotated by Jeri Johnson, who gives a witty and informative insight into the context, meanings, and reception of Joyce's work.

据说“不做无聊之事,何遣有涯之生”。倚声家自张门面之意,倒也不失为恬然自适。厕上读小说诚然煮鹤焚琴,然小说确可算得上发端于无聊的罢,陈思王“澡迄敷粉”、“科头拍袒”对着邯郸淳跳丸击剑所诵的“诽优小说”虽不是现代意义上的叙事体小说,其消遣之作用、娱情之雅意实...

评分大学时候翻过《尤利西斯》,五六十页的样子,没有耐性读完。日常生活中你留给别人的第一印象很关键,好恶常由此决定。读书,与作家相遇,也是这个道理。80年代生人大都不喜鲁迅,一定程度是学生时代逢先生作品必要背诵留下的阴影。初看《尤利西斯》,宛如天书,我甚至想自...
评分和许多准备阅读乔伊斯著名短篇小说集《都柏林人》[Dubliners] 的人一样,我的首选是《阿拉比》(Araby)。摄氏33度闷热的晨,在冷气充溢的KFC的角落,一口气读完了《阿拉比》原版。很自然地就想说点什么。小说鉴赏一般都可以从叙事视角、背景氛围、情节结构、人物塑造以及主题思...
