Odysseus (v angl. orig. Ulysses) je román irského spisovatele Jamese Joyce. Jedná se o parafrázi Homérova eposu Odysseia, na nějž v mnoha paralelách odkazuje. Z dalších děl citovaných v Joyceově románu lze uvést např. Shakespearovu tragédii Hamlet či Mozartovu operu Don Giovanni, časté jsou rovněž citace a parafráze bible, různých liturgických textů, ale i irských lidových popěvků. Mnozí odborníci i laici považují Odyssea za největší anglicky psané dílo 20. století. Joyce psal Odyssea sedm let, mezi roky 1914 a 1921. Poprvé bylo dílo vydáno roku 1922 v Paříži, neboť ve Velké Británii i ve Spojených státech amerických měla kniha problémy s cenzurou. Román pojednává o příhodách a trampotách mnoha obyvatel Dublinu během čtvrtka 16. června 1904 od osmi hodin ráno do brzkých ranních hodin následujícího dne.

Vyhnanci je jediná dochovaná divadelní hra Jamese Joyce. Sama o sobě není příliš známá, mluví se o ní zpravidla jen jako o součásti Joyceova díla. (wikipedie) Děj dramatu se odehrává v létě roku 1912 v rodině spisovatele Richarda Rowena, do jejíhož chodu zasáhne příjezd učitelky hudby. (Městská knihovna v Praze)

Jediná kniha Jamese Joyce určená dětem Kočka a čert vypráví o městečku na břehu Loiry rozděleném řekou na dvě části, které však nemá žádný most a občané městečka si ho ani neumějí postavit. Purkmistr města se proto upíše ďáblu, ten však chce jako protislužbu duši prvního člověka, který po mostě přejde. A jak to dopadne? Autor napsal pohádku ve 30. letech jako dopis svému vnukovi.

Dílo popisuje utváření osobnosti mladého člověka na přelomu století v Irsku, proces krystalizace jeho životního poslání. Štěpán Dedalus, hrdina se silnými autobiografickými rysy, se v průběhu dospívání vymaňuje z područí tří základních vlivů svého dětství - rodiny, náboženství a vlasti - a propracovává se k poznání vlastního údělu umělce. Při desetileté práci na Portrétu si Joyce vytvářel a ověřoval experimentální techniku tvorby, kterou rozvinul ve svém vrcholném díle Odysseus.

Joyceovi Dubliňané patří k vrcholným dílům moderní prózy. V patnácti povídkách „jen“ minimalisticky popisuje a analyzuje své bližní, příslušníky dublinské střední třídy z počátku 20. století. Autor se znamenitě vyrovnal s nelehkým úkolem: napsat působivou povídku, v níž se toho vlastně moc neděje. Podařilo se mu to díky zobrazení „epifanie“, okamžiku prohlédnutí, v němž jeho postavy znenadání nazřou pravdu o svém životě. Bilingvní, anglicko-české vydání díla klasika světové literatury určené pro středně pokročilé zájemce o angličtinu.

Znamenitý, miniaturní textík O kočkách a Kodani se silným, téměř anarchickým podtextem je trochu mladším sourozencem knížky Kočka a čert, doposud jediného známého Joyceova příběhu pro malé děti. Obě dílka, napsaná v rozmezí pouhých několika týdnů roku 1936, poslal autor původně v dopise Stephenovi, svému jedinému vnukovi. Rukopis byl objeven teprve nedávno a pro knižní vydání ho kouzelnými ilustracemi vypravil Casey Sorrow. Kniha je prvním svazkem nové edice NOS.

Joyceovo rozloučení s romantickou láskou i s romantickými verši předznamenává moderní anglicky psanou poezii. Tato sbírka obsahuje třicet šest zpěvů a patří dodnes mezi klenoty světové poezie. Česko-anglické vydání. Doslov napsal Matthew Sweney.

Krasopisně nasaný rukopis Giacomo Joyce byl objeven v Joyceově pozůstalosti jeho bratrem a poprvé uveřejněn více než dvacet let po autorově smrti, v 60. letech (1968). Byla to literární senzace. Text je jakýmsi silně stylizovaným deníkem autorovy erotické fantazie a byl napsán v době před první světovou válkou (1907), kdy Joyce pobýval v italském Terstu. Je to báseň v próze, vynikající zjitřenou poetičností a mystickým zaujetím, slovy Joyceova životopisce Richarda Ellmana „milostná báseň, která nebyla nikdy recitována“. Kniha vychází v unikátní grafické úpravě – volné listy v přebalu – s ilustracemi významného španělského výtvarníka José Hernándeze.

A selection of extracts from the work of James Joyce, accompanied by photographs of Ireland.

The remarkable collection of stories that make up Dubliners was described by Joyce himself as a series of chapters in the moral history of his community; and the arrangement of the tales reveals "a progression from childhood to maturity, broadening from private to public scope," as Harry Levin noted in his introduction to The Portable James Joyce. In fact, it is the scope of life that Joyce has limned in these stories--ranging from the opening tale, "The Sisters," in which the boy is confronted with death as he overhears the conversation of his elders, through the memorable "Ivy Day in the Committee Room" with its depiction of small-time politicians recalling their great lost leader, Parnell, to the exquisitely poignant "The Dead," wherein through the chance singing of a song a husband learns of a long-ago romance in his wife's life. While the geographic boundary of these fifteen stories may be middle-class, Catholic Dublin, the artistic boundary is set only by Joyce's far-reaching genius. --back cover

"The Dead" is the final and longest story in the "Dubliners", a collection of fifteen short stories by James Joyce. First published in 1904, the stories aim to capture Irish middle class life as it really was around Dublin at the turn-of-the-century. Like many of Joyce's tales in the collection, "The Dead" features a transformative epiphany, where a character experiences a sudden insight into their life that changes the way they see everything. In what many consider one of Joyce's most nuanced and well-written works, the story centers around Gabriel Conroy, his evening attending a Christmas dinner party hosted by his elderly aunts, and the experiences of his wife and various friends. In his signature style, Joyce delves deeply into the inner lives of his characters and the subtle details of their evening together in order to transform a seemingly mundane dinner party into a profound examination of the fleeting nature of life, love, happiness, and regret. At the end of the evening, Gabriel is surprised to learn that even the people he believed he knew well are capable of unseen depths of emotion and hidden experiences. "The Dead" withstands the test of time as one of Joyce's most thought-provoking and emotionally powerful works. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

It is only James Joyce's towering genius as a novelist that has led to the comparative neglect of his poetry and sole surviving play. And yet, argues Mays in his stimulating and informative introduction, several of these works not only occupy a pivotal position in Joyce's career; they are also magnificently assured achievements in their own right. Chamber Music is 'an extraordinary debut', fusing the styles of the nineties and the Irish Revival with irony and characteristic verbal exuberance. Pomes Penyeach and Exiles (highly acclaimed in Harold Pinter's 1970 staging) were written when Joyce had published Dubliners and was completing A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. Both confront painfully personal issues of adultery, jealousy and betrayal and so pave the way for the more detached and fully realized treatment in Ulysses. Joyce's occasional verse includes 'Ecce Puer' for his new-born grandson, juvenilia, satires, translations, limericks and a parody of Samuel Taylor Coleridge. All are brought together in this scholarly, fully annotated yet accessible new edition.

The only extant play by the great Irish novelist, this work is notable for its autobiographical elements and formal qualities. The main character, Richard Rowan, a tormented writer at odds with his wife and Irish society, serves as a reflection of Joyce himself. Rowan's wife, Bertha, draws influence from Joyce's lover and later wife, Nora Barnacle, with whom he lived a nomadic life across Europe. The play mirrors Joyce's own experiences, including his return to Ireland due to his mother's illness and death. Rowan's flawed pursuit of individual freedom, despite the constraints of Irish morals, hints at Joyce's interest in Nietzsche. Wrestling with guilt over infidelities, Rowan advocates for personal liberty for himself and his wife, who faces temptation from his cousin. Joyce's choice to write a play reflects his admiration for Henrik Ibsen, evident in the tense dialogue and the focus on character relationships, guilt, and the longing for freedom. The understated writing style contrasts with Joyce's exuberant language in his novels, showcasing Ibsen's influence. Ultimately, the play explores the conflict between individual freedom and societal judgment, as the protagonists grapple with the choice of defying rigid conventions or seeking exile. Though lesser-known, this work, written between two of Joyce's major novels, offers valuable insights into the evolution of a literary genius.

This 3-act play was first published in 1918; and like much of Joyce's other works, it is an imaginative reconstruction of his own life. In it, Richard Rowan, an Irish writer who has spent much time abroad, feels estranged from Irish society when he returns to Dublin.

The stories in Dubliners show us truants, seducers, gossips, rally-drivers, generous hostesses, corrupt politicians, failing priests, amateur theologians, struggling musicians, moony adolescents, victims of domestic brutishness, sentimental aunts and poets, patriots earnest or cynical, and people striving to get by.

The Gabler edition of Ulysses, the greatest 20th-century novel written in English, contains corrections to more than 5,000 errors in earlier editions. Almost as soon as Ulysses first appeared, in Paris in 1922, James Joyce began to compile a list of errata, and publishers have continued the process ever since, often inadvertently adding to the list. In 1974, an international team of scholars headed by Professor Hans Walter Gabler began to study manuscript evidence, typescripts, and proofs in order to produce as accurate and complete a new edition as possible. First published in 1984, the Gabler edition was hailed as a monumental achievement, one that makes this great and complex novel more accessible and enjoyable than ever before. Also included is a preface by the distinguished Joyce scholar Richard Ellmann, a foreword and note on the text by Gabler, and an afterword by Michael Groden. Set entirely on one day, 16 June 1904, Ulysses follows Leopold Bloom and Stephen Daedalus as they go about their daily business in Dublin. From this starting point, James Joyce constructs a novel of extraordinary imaginative richness and depth. Unique in the history of literature, Ulysses is one of the most important and enjoyable works of the twentieth century.
