James Joyce/Araby
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page essay that considers the meaning and interpretation of this famous short story. The standard interpretation of James Joyce's short story "Araby" is that it is a coming-of-age narrative that recounts a young romantic boy's first bitter encounter with reality, as he realizes the fickle nature of women. However, as Frank Coulthard points out, there is another way of viewing this story. This interpretation argues that the true protagonist of the tale is not the romantic boy, but rather the older, embittered adult narrator who is relating this story. Considering this interpretation, Coulthard argues that the point is not that reality is tough, but rather that the repressive nature of the Dublin culture causes the boy to not only judge his hopes as foolish, but sinful (97). The writer argues this perspective. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

James Joyce/Power in The Boarding House
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that examines Joyce's short story "The Boarding House" from Dubliners in regards to the use of power. Mrs. Mooney and her adolescent daughter Polly, use the power at their disposal to obtain a desired objective--a husband for Polly. Throughout the story, Joyce builds a picture of both Mrs. Mooney and her daughter as being both manipulative and crafty in the use of power. Examination of this story shows how Joyce systematically redefines the assumptions of his era to define men as ineffectual and powerless and women as emasculating trappers of their sex.
