Summary

"Index of the Project Gutenberg Works of James Joyce" by James Joyce is a catalog of works by a significant author from the modernist movement. Intended as a guide, this index organizes Joyce's important writings, spanning across novels, poems, and dramatic works. The likely focus is to simplify navigation of Joyce's body of work, shining a light on his investigation into subjects like self-discovery, the power of words, and what it means to be human. The index emphasizes important publications like "Dubliners," a set of short stories portraying life in Dublin during the early 1900s, and "Ulysses," a revolutionary novel that mirrors Homer's classic while investigating the challenges of daily life. Other listings include "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man," which tracks the main character’s mental and emotional development, and "Chamber Music," a series of expressive verses related to love and the world around us. Moreover, "Exiles," a play, highlights the themes of love, envy, and societal expectations. Taken together, the entries in this reference material showcase Joyce's creative storytelling methods and deep understanding of the human mind.

About the Author

James Augustine Aloysius Joyce was an Irish novelist, poet and literary critic. He contributed to the modernist avant-garde movement and is regarded as one of the most influential and important writers of the 20th century. Joyce's novel Ulysses (1922) is a landmark in which the episodes of Homer's Odyssey are paralleled in a variety of literary styles, particularly stream of consciousness. 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, letters, and occasional journalism.
