JAMES JOYCE’S "A PORTRAIT OF AN ARTIST AS A YOUNG MAN"

In A Portrait of an Artist as Young Man, James Joyce depicts the growth of his young protagonist Stephen Dedalus. In the process, Joyce not only develops his unique literary style of stream of consciousness, but also investigates Irish identity in relationship to British imperialism. A Portrait of an Artist represents one of the seminal works of Modernism. Professor Lutz suggests the Penguin Classics edition: ISBN# 978-0-14-243734-6, but you may use whatever edition you choose.
