About this book

Shining a new light on the Dubliners and opening up fresh ways of thinking about Joyce's later masterpieces, Frank Shovlin examines how Joyce's acute historical sensibility - grounded in commemoration of the Irish past and, in particular, moments of Irish defeat - is reflected by the Dubliners via a series of coded references.
