Dear, Dirty Dubliners
Online/In-Person Course
2 October – 6 November 2024
Every Wednesday, 6-8pm IST
€80 Registration
There is just one week left our popular Dear, Dirty Dubliners course starts. Be sure to register before spots run out!
It will be held online and in-person at the James Joyce Centre every Wednesday, 6-8pm IST starting on October 2nd.
The James Joyce Centre is proud to offer Dear, Dirty Dubliners, a course on Joyce’s first masterwork.
Dubliners, Joyce’s debut collection of short stories, is considered one of the finest short story collections ever written, laying bare the intrigues, dirtiness, and indignities of life in Dublin at the turn of the 20^th century. Joyce got at the “heart” of Dublin with penetrating insights into its denizens, using innovative styles and techniques that would come to define the Modernist movement and beyond.
Dear, Dirty Dubliners is a unique six-week course that will guide you through the stories in great detail. The course will be held both in the James Joyce Centre and on Zoom. Particular focus will be paid to issues of gender, poverty, colonialism, nationalism, globalization, the Catholic Church, and sexuality, just to name a few. The course will also go over its troubled publication history as well as its enduring legacy and adaptations, such as John Huston’s 1987 film The Dead.
The course will be led by Dr. Josh Q. Newman, an academic and assistant at the James Joyce Centre. The course will consist of readings, group discussions, presentations, and guest lectures. Students will be provided with contextual and scholarly materials via Moodle. You do not have to be an academic or so familiar with Joyce’s work to enjoy the class!
