The Dublin of Joyce and Yeats
James Joyce is considered one oof the greatest writers of the modern period, and W. B. Yeats, the 1923 Nobel Laureate, is according to T. S. Eliot, the “greatest poet of the 20th century.” This course will focus on Joyce’s stories in The Dubliners, followed by Yeats’ early love poems, such as Maude Gonne, and his political poems, like Easter 1916. John Huston’s film, The Dead, will supplement the readings.
