1. A publication in post-First World War Paris

Abstract

‘A publication in post-First World War Paris’ provides an overview of James Joyce’s major works, including Ulysses, Dubliners, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and Finnegans Wake. The theme of exile is central to much of Joyce’s work, as well as questions of sexuality and the rejection of the Catholic Church. The concern with sexuality led many to try and censor Joyce’s work. Thus, his work was often subjected to censorship and criticism. Despite being considered to be the greatest master of prose fiction writing in English, Joyce’s work had to overcome innumerable legal difficulties to find an audience.
