More about the book

Challenging established views, this book reexamines the connections between James Joyce's work and the Irish Revolution, arguing that Joyce was deeply intertwined with the cultural and political events of his time. Luke Gibbons posits that both Joyce and Ulysses emerged from a modern Ireland that was actively participating in revolutionary change, rather than being detached from it. By situating Joyce within a broader modernist context, including influential figures across Europe and America, Gibbons reframes the narrative of Irish history and modernism, positioning them at the forefront of global decolonization.
