Издания и произведения

Первый в истории европейской литературы сборник рассказов, объединенных темой, по выражению самого автора, "паралича" личности и смерти души в консервативной и отсталой ирландской столице начала ХХ века. В нем работа и домашняя жизнь, будни и праздники обитателей Дублина — мрачного города, за кирпичными фасадами которого буднично и повседневно происходят убийства и самоубийства человеческих душ. Добропорядочные представители среднего класса и бедняки, политики и пьяницы, буржуа и "творческая интеллигенция", священники и миряне, мужчины и женщины. Все они, в сущности, неплохие люди, но всем им Джойс беспощадно выносит приговор: они мертвы.…

В "Дублинцах", сборнике рассказов, написанных в 1904-1907 годах, но изданных только в 1914-м, нам явлен великолепный мастер прозы. Пусть это еще не вполне тот Джеймс Джойс, который стал главой европейского модернизма - ведь пока не написан "Улисс" и даже "Портрет художника в юности" еще впереди, - однако автор уже пробует свою технику "потока сознания", и в этих опытах внутренняя жизнь героев представлена с необычайным проникновением. Сильнейшее влияние этой книги на литературу ХХ века отмечается множеством критиков и прозаиков, и подобно тому, как русские классики "вышли из гоголевской "Шинели"", можно утверждать, что англоязычная…

In this powerfully influential series of short stories, James Joyce captures uneasy souls, shabby lives and innocent minds in the dark streets and homes of his native city. In doing so, he conjures uncertainties and desires, illumines moments of joy and sorrow otherwise lost in private memory, and pierces the many mysteries at the heart of things.

Джеймс Джойс - не только один из самых известных классиков мировой литературы XIX-XX веков, но и ярчайший представитель модернизма, обладающий изысканным слогом. "Дублинцы" - это сборник из 15 рассказов ещё молодого, но уже бескрайне талантливого Джойса. В импрессионистической манере автор рассказывает о жизни в столице Ирландии. Тут и мелкие серые людишки, и важные павы, и плоская обыденность будней, и возвышенная и нежная романтика былых дней… Читайте зарубежную литературу в оригинале!

Dubliners, a collection of fifteen short stories, first published in 1914, form a naturalistic depiction of Irish middle class life in and around Dublin in the early years of the 20th century.

У «Дублінцях» (1914) Джеймса Джойса (1882 – 1941) читач не знайде авангардного експериментаторства «Улісса» та безоглядної сповідальності «Портрету митця замолоду». Однак насичений психологізм оповіді, емоційність фрази, увага до компрометуючих деталей, небажання вдаватися в ідеалізацію та моралізаторство, готовність шокувати «набожних та благочестивих», як і усвідомлення того, що колір батьківщини – не завжди блакитний відтінок неба, але також монотонна сірість дощового дня та брудно-коричнева багнюка дублінських вулиць – усе це дозволяє безпомилково упізнати стиль пізніше знаменитого на весь світ автора, а заразом робить цю збірку малої…

Джеймс Джойс — классик англо-ирландской литературы, оказавший колоссальное влияние на прозу XX века. В историю мировой литературы он вошел как автор романа «Улисс», ставшего «евангелием» модернизма и положившего начало литературе «потока сознания». Сборник психологически тонких новелл «Дублинцы» — первое зрелое произведение Джойса. «Моим намерением, — писал Джойс, — было написать главу из духовной истории моей страны, и я выбрал местом действия Дублин, поскольку, с моей точки зрения, именно этот город является центром паралича». Паралич для Джойса — это символ ненавистных ему пороков современной ирландской жизни: косности, низкопоклонства,…

First published in 1914, Dubliners depicts middle-class Catholic life in Dublin at the start of the twentieth century. Themes within the stories include the disappointments of childhood, the frustrations of adolescence, and the importance of sexual awakening. Joyce was twenty-five years old when he wrote this collection of short stories, among which 'The Dead' is probably the most famous. Considered at the time as a literary experiment, Dubliners contains moments of joy, fear, grief, love and loss, which combine to form one of the most complete depictions of a city ever written, and the stories remain as refreshingly original and surprising…

Cideb’s unabridged study edition of Joyce’s Dubliners comes complete with a full critical introduction which places the author in the short-story tradition before going on to examine ‘Joyce as Experimentalist’. Emphasis is placed on the author’s various narrative techniques and this allows the reader to see this ‘highly original work’ not only as the reflection of a real world but also as a sophisticated literary construction.

For the centennial of its original publication, an irresistible Deluxe Edition of one of the most beloved books of the 20th century—featuring a foreword by Colum McCann, the bestselling author of Let the Great World Spin and TransAtlantic Perhaps the greatest short story collection in the English language, James Joyce’s Dubliners is a vivid and unflinching portrait of “dear dirty Dublin” at the turn of the twentieth century. These fifteen stories, including such unforgettable ones as “Araby,” “Grace,” and “The Dead,” delve into the heart of the city of Joyce’s birth, capturing the cadences of Dubliners’ speech and portraying with an…

Джеймс Джойс (1882–1941) — один из самых знаменитых писателей XX века, представитель модернизма, в значительной степени повлиявший на мировую культуру. Он и в наше время остается одним из самых широко читаемых англоязычных прозаиков. В 1998 году английское издательство Modern Library составило список «100 лучших романов Новейшей библиотеки», в который попали все три романа Джеймса Джойса: «Улисс» (номер 1 в списке), «Портрет художника в юности» (номер 3) и «Поминки по Финнегану» (номер 77). В 1999 году журнал Time включил писателя в список «100 героев и кумиров XX века». Роман «Улисс» был назван «демонстрацией и подведением итога под всем…

'Snow was general all over Ireland. It was falling on every part of the dark central plain, on the treeless hills, falling softly upon the Bog of Allen and, farther westward, softly falling into the dark mutinous Shannon waves'. From a child grappling with the death of a fallen priest, to a young woman's dilemma over whether to elope to Argentina with her lover, to the dance party at which a man discovers just how little he really knows about his wife, these fifteen stories bring the gritty realism of existence in Joyce's native Dublin to life.

Although ranging considerably in tone, mood and milieu, the fifteen short stories included in this collection all centre around the city of Dublin and its inhabitants at the beginning of the twentieth century. From the unsettling adventure of two truant schoolboys to the crafty schemes of two con men, from a young woman's refusal to abandon Ireland and elope with a sailor to a man's moment of clarity during an annual dance party, these stories offer a moving portrait of an entire world and era which are about to disappear.

From a child grappling with the death of a fallen priest, to a young woman's dilemma over whether to elope to Argentina with her lover, to the dance party at which a man discovers just how little he really knows about his wife, these fifteen stories bring the gritty realism of existence in Joyce's native Dublin to life. With Dubliners, James Joyce reinvented the art of fiction, using a scrupulous, deadpan realism to convey truths that were at once blasphemous and sacramental.

HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. ‘One by one they were all becoming shades. Better pass boldly into that other world, in the full glory of some passion, than fade and wither dismally with age.’ Revealing the truths and realities about Irish society in the early 20th century, Joyce’s Dubliners challenged the prevailing image of Dublin at the time. A group portrait made up of 15 short stories about the inhabitants of Joyce’s native city, he offers a subtle critique of his own town, imbuing the text with an underlying tone of tragedy. Through his various characters he displays the…

This title is edited by Hans Walter Gabler. It comes with introductions by Scarlett Baron and John Banville. In this powerfully influential series of short stories, James Joyce captures uneasy souls, shabby lives and innocent minds in the dark streets and homes of his native city. In doing so, he conjures uncertainties and desires, illumines moments of joy and sorrow otherwise lost in private memory, and pierces the many mysteries at the heart of things.

Joyce's first major work, written when he was only twenty-five, brought his city to the world for the first time. His stories are rooted in the rich detail of Dublin life, portraying ordinary, often defeated lives with unflinching realism. He writes of social decline, sexual desire and exploitation, corruption, and personal failure, yet creates a brilliantly compelling, unique vision of the world and of human experience.

Dubliners is a wonderfully engaging and accessible collection of stories by James Joyce, an author famed for being difficult to read. It contains fifteen stories, among them The Dead, made into a memorable film by John Huston. This beautiful new edition, with an introduction by John Boyne, was chosen as the One Book, One City title for Dublin in 2012.

James Joyce was the singular figure of modernism, and to this day his grand vision looms large over contemporary literature and the entire Western canon. His stylistic innovations were revolutionary, yet nowhere is Joyce more accessible than in this volume of short stories, a brilliant collection that celebrates, critiques, and immortalizes the place that Joyce knew better than anyone else: Dublin. From the young boy encountering death in the opening story, “The Sisters,” to the middle-aged protagonist of its haunting finale, “The Dead,” considered one of the greatest short stories of all time, Dubliners is a vivid portrait of the city in…

'I regret to see that my book has turned out un fiasco solenne' James Joyce's disillusion with the publication of 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, including two entire stories. Although only 24 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 civilisation 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, reveal to…

James Joyce’s groundbreaking collection of short stories about the beloved city of his birth. Perhaps the greatest short story collection in the English language, James Joyce’s Dubliners is both a vivid and unflinching portrait of “dear dirty Dublin” at the turn of the twentieth century and a moral history of a nation and a people whose “golden age” has passed. His richly drawn characters—at once intensely Irish and utterly universal—may forever haunt the reader. In mesmerizing writing that evokes rich imagery, Joyce delves into the heart of the city of his birth, capturing the cadences of Dubliners’ speech in remarkably realistic…

Dubliners is arguably the best-known and most influential collection of short stories written in English, and has been since its publication in 1914. Through what Joyce described as their "style of scrupulous meanness," the stories present a direct, sometimes searing view of Dublin in the early twentieth century. The text of this Norton Critical Edition is based on renowned Joyce scholar Hans Walter Gabler’s edited text and includes his editorial notes and the introduction to his scholarly edition, which details and discusses Dubliners’ complicated publication history. "Contexts" offers a rich collection of materials that bring the…

Dubliners was completed in '05, but British & Irish publishers & printers found it so offensive & immoral it was suppressed. It finally came out in London in '14, just as Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man began to appear in the journal Egoist under Ezra Pound's auspices. The 1st three stories might be incidents from a draft of Portrait of the Artist & many of the characters who figure in Ulysses 1st appear here, but this isn't a book of interest only because of its relationship to Joyce's life & mature work. It's one of the great story collections in the English language--a brilliant, unflinching, often tragic portrait of early…

Основная тема сборника рассказов "Дублинцы" - мятущееся сознание, полное противоречий и комплексов. Издание сопровождается подробными комментариями и предназначено для всех читающих по-английски или изучающих этот язык.

Living overseas but writing, always, about his native city, Joyce made Dublin unforgettable. The stories in Dubliners show us truants, seducers, gossips, rally-drivers, generous hostesses, corrupt politicians, failing priests, amateur theologians, struggling musicians, moony adolescents, victims of domestic brutishness, sentimental aunts and poets, patriots earnest or cynical, and people striving to get by. In every sense an international figure, Joyce was faithful to his own country by seeing it unflinchingly and challenging every precedent and piety in Irish literature.

Dubliners is a collection of 15 short stories by James Joyce, first published in 1914. The fifteen stories were meant to be a naturalistic depiction of the Irish middle class life in and around Dublin in the early years of the 20th century. The stories were written at the time when Irish nationalism was at its peak, and a search for a national identity and purpose was raging; at a crossroads of history and culture, Ireland was jolted by various converging ideas and influences.

'Don't you think there is a certain resemblance between the mystery of the Mass and what I am trying to do? ...To give people some kind of intellectual pleasure or spiritual enjoyment by converting the bread of everyday life into something that has a permanent artistic life of its own' - James Joyce, in a letter to his brother. With these fifteen stories James Joyce reinvented the art of fiction, using a scrupulous, deadpan realism to convey truths that were at once blasphemous and sacramental. Whether writing about the death of a fallen priest ("The Sisters"), the petty sexual and fiscal machinations of "Two Gallants," or of the Christmas…

"James Joyce's collection of short stories, 'Dubliners', is the first of his four masterpieces. Gaslit, turn-of-the-century Dublin is the setting of these fifteen explorations of human behaviour. The stories, which end with the brilliantly elegiac 'The Dead', are both simple and complex. Linked by theme, detail, character and place, together they form a timeless circular novel. There is something more. Behind everything Joyce wrote lay a shadowy world - Dublin's customs, gossip, music, misery, its jokes and idioms, its sins and its social nuances. It was a world that had a unique physical, mental and literary landscape - one now almost…

Though James Joyce began these stories of Dublin life in 1904 when he was twenty-two and completed them in 1907, their unconventional themes and language led to repeated rejections by publishers and delayed publication until 1914. In the century since, his story “The Dead” has come to be seen as one of the most powerful evocations of human loss and longing that the English language possesses; all the other stories in Dubliners are as beautifully turned and as greatly admired. They remind us once again that James Joyce was not only modernism’s chief innovator but also one of its most intimate and poetic writers. In this edition the text…

James Joyce has been hailed as one of the great literary rebels of our time. He rebelled against social and literary conventions, against Catholicism, and against Dublin, the city at the center of this magnificent collection of stories. In Dubliners, Joyce paints vivid portraits of the denizens of the city of his birth, from the young boy encountering death in the fist story, “The Sisters,” to the middle-aged Gabriel of the haunting final story, “The Dead.” This collection is both unflinchingly realistic portrait of “dear dirty Dublin” and, as Joyce himself explained, a window through which his countrymen could get “one good look at…

Dubliners is a collection of 15 short stories by James Joyce, first published in 1914. They form a naturalistic depiction of Irish middle class life in and around Dublin in the early years of the 20th century. The initial stories in the collection are narrated by child protagonists, and as the stories continue, they deal with the lives and concerns of progressively older people. This is in line with Joyce's tripartite division of the collection into childhood, adolescence, and maturity.

Dubliners - James Joyce's stories of his native homeland - performed by a cast of 15 different actors originating from Ireland. Unabridged. The fifteen stories that make up this brilliant audio roam over a human landscape that stretches from the bleakest of despair to the most blinding of epiphanies. First published in 1914, the stories are as lucid and accessible as they are memorable poignant. As you listen to the cast of internationally famous stage and screen actors perform Dubliners, both the spiritually deadening atmosphere that drove Joyce from his homeland and the irresistible emotional pull it always kept on him to the end…
