Sinopsis	POEMS AND SHORTER WRITINGS This collection brings together all the poems published by James Joyce in his lifetime, most notably "Chamber Music" and "Pomes Penyeach". It also includes a large body of his satiric or humorous occasional verse, much of which is fugitive and little known to the general reader. In addition, the volume provides the text of the surviving prose "Epiphanies, Giacomo Joyce" - the fascinating Trieste notebook that Joyce compiled while finishing "A Portrait of the Artist" and beginning "Ulysses", in which he first explored the world of his autobiographical novel. JAMES JOYCE James Augustine Aloysius Joyce 2 February 1882 - 13 January 1941 was an Irish novelist and poet. He contributed to the modernist avant-garde and is regarded as one of the most influential and important authors of the 20th century. Joyce is best known for Ulysses 1922 , a landmark work in which the episodes of Homer's Odyssey are paralleled in an array of contrasting literary styles, perhaps most prominent among these the stream of consciousness technique he utilised. Other well-known works are the short-story collection Dubliners 1914 , and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man 1916 and Finnegans Wake 1939 . His other writings include three books of poetry, a play, occasional journalism and his published letters. Joyce was born in 41 Brighton Square, Rathgar, Dublin-about half a mile from his mother's birthplace in Terenure-into a middle-class family on the way down. A brilliant student, he excelled at the Jesuit schools Clongowes and Belvedere, despite the chaotic family life imposed by his father's alcoholism and unpredictable finances. He went on to attend University College Dublin. In 1904, in his early twenties, Joyce emigrated permanently to continental Europe with his partner and later wife Nora Barnacle. They lived in Trieste, Paris and Zurich. Though most of his adult life was spent abroad, Joyce's fictional universe centres on Dublin, and is populated largely by characters who closely resemble family members, enemies and friends from his time there. Ulysses in particular is set with precision in the streets and alleyways of the city. Shortly after the publication of Ulysses, he elucidated this preoccupation somewhat, saying, "For myself, I always write about Dublin, because if I can get to the heart of Dublin I can get to the heart of all the cities of the world. In the particular is contained the universal." Edad: adultos JOYCE JAMES James Augustine Aloysius Joyce nace en Dublín el 2 de febrero de 1882 y cursa casi la totalidad de sus estudios con los jesuitas, de los que nunca renegará del todo. Estudia Lenguas Modernas en la universidad y con veinte años marcha a París para estudiar Medicina y convertirse en un escritor. Tras regresar a Dublín para asistir a la muerte de su madre, lleno de proyectos frustrados y convencido de que seguir en su país sería enterrarse en vida, marcha definitivamente al Continente en 1904 con Nora, la que será su mujer hasta el día de su muerte. Escribe simultáneamente la novela autobiográfica Stephen Hero y la colección de cuentos Dublineses, al tiempo que se gana la vida como profesor de inglés. Vive en Pola, en Trieste, en Roma, otra vez en Trieste. Publica Dublineses y transforma su novela autobiográfica en el definitivo Retrato del artista adolescente. Ya famoso, escribe Ulises y se marcha a vivir a París con su familia para atender la publicación. Los siguientes dieciséis años los dedica a escribir Finnegans Wake, la obra más difícil de la literatura. No mucho después de su conclusión, en plena guerra, enero de1941, muere y es enterrado en Zúrich.
