Dubliners James Joyce

Descrizione

Solo ritiro a mano su Milano e dintorni In the course of fifteen brilliant short stories, Dubliners unfolds a minute and fascinating portrait of the Irish capital at the turn of the century. Written between 1904 and 1907, when Joyce was in his early twenties, these stories contain all the subtlety, symbolic density and sensitivity to language that were to establish James Joyce's reputation as the pre-eminent modernist. In Dubliners the reader follows Joyce's declared thematic progression for his work, from childhood through adolescence and young adulthood to maturity. • Full biographical and critical introduction • Wide choice of activities to help students analyse the text in full • Numerous footnotes to guide understanding, with phonetic transcriptions of some difficult words • Recording of selected stories to aid pronunciation and listening skills Book design by Nadia Maestri
