Description:...

Before Joyce became a famous writer, he supported himself through his other language work: English-language teaching. The importance of James Joyce's teaching, however, has been underestimated until now. Closely reading Joyce's famed works, Switaj shows the influence of Joyce's brief career as an English teacher on the development of his canon.
