Stephen Dedalus and James Joyce

Troy, William | February 14, 1934 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on novelist James Joyce's novel "Ulysses" and its autobiographical hero Stephen Dedalus. The most common confusion into which the discussion of the work has fallen is the result of the failure to distinguish between Stephen Dedalus, who is one of its three principal characters, and James Joyce, who is its author. It is a confusion that it is not very difficult to understand, for Stephen Dedalus is not only one of the most perfectly realized characters in modern fiction but also the character with whom the modern reader can most easily identify himself.
