Abstract

James Joyce and Ireland
Murphy, Maurice | October 16, 1929 issue

add to cart   close window

James Joyce has done more for Ireland than any other man of letters. It is not at all inconsistent with Irish character that in Ireland he is looked upon as a kind of pariah, not only by the peasantry but by many otherwise intelligent people. A recent article in an American magazine by an Irish journalist speaks of Joyce as an intelligent but mentally perverted friend. The Irish, like most people who are generally amenable and tolerant, are adamant and uncompromising where some pet theory or principle is concerned, and Joyce has not only exploded their most cherished illusion but has also renounced Catholicism.
