• W953037990 abstract "During their conversation in the cabman's shelter in Eumaeus, Stephen and Bloom hit on the following misunderstanding:- You suspect, Stephen retorted with a sort of half laugh, that I may be important because I belong to the faubourg Saint Patrice called Ireland for short.- 1 would go a step farther, Mr Bloom insinuated.- But I suspect, Stephen interrupted, that Ireland must be important because it belongs to me. (U 16.1160-65)The terms Stephen uses to describe their two different approaches to his relationship to Ireland are also those we require in order to discuss whether the state of contemporary Ireland has anything to bring to Joyce scholarship. Indeed, they are the terms with which we might think more generally about what place, if any, Studies has in the ongoing project of interpreting Ulysses, now that the specific local references have mostly been annotated and identified. Is Ulysses important because it belongs to Ireland or is Ireland important because it belongs to Joyce? For practitioners of Irish Studies, for those whose principal object of study is Ireland, Ulysses is important as a vast encyclopaedia not only of Irishness, but of Irishness-as-worldliness, the universe as construed through the lens of Dublin. For true-blue Joyceans, on the other hand, the study of Ireland is important because insider knowledge of local arcana can illuminate otherwise obscure parts of the books. Ulysses, published abroad, championed by foreigners, banned at home, belonged to the world long before it ever was an accepted part of a national tradition at home. The Dublin in which the novel was set - colonial, Edwardian, small, and, in crucial ways, British - was disappearing even in 1922. During the years of the boom, Dublin, long an independent capital rather than colonial outpost, grew ever more distant from the realities of Ulysses. During those years, it seemed to be at the centre, not the periphery of Europe, wealthy, busy and sleek rather than poor, idle and ramshackle, a destination for fortune-seekers from all over the globe rather than a source of emigrant labor for the rest of the world. Yet during this time, the tendency to read Ulysses through the lens of Irish studies has increased rather than decreased. Much scholarship indeed now reads Ulysses as though Irishness were not the condition of its setting, the frame for its expression, but instead the essence residing at its interpretative core, an irreducible, indispensable, secret code for understanding the book. As though, in short, Ulysses were important because it belongs to Ireland, and not the other way round.Did or do Ireland and contemporary Dublin have any legitimate place at all in the discussion of Ulysses1? Does a modern reader have any genuine Joycean business visiting the actual, physical city in postboom 2012? The streetscape and physical appearance of the city have been unrecognizable since the 1960s: cars and buses have replaced the horses and cabbies (though the Celtic Tiger did bring about the return of the tram), the population is triple what it was in 1904, the small, semi-rural villages on the outskirts, like Stillorgan, Dalkey and Dundrum are now integrated hives of suburban bustle - and so on. But before the boom, right up to the mid-1990s, something had remained in the Dublin air which was not just ineffably reminiscent of Ulysses but which was capable of adding to an understanding of the text and its evolution. It was a kind of shabby gentility, a combination of lofty educational aspirations with a dismal economic climate, and, most of all a sense of being at the edge of the world, on the outside looking in. This atmosphere peculiar to Dublin, of being sort of in the first world and sort of outside it, sort of functioning and sort of a shambles, evoked the particular conditions that produced Ulysses: the shadow, in other words, of semi-postcolonialism which persisted in a slowly dwindling form, through the sixties, seventies and eighties, right until the Tiger was well underway. …" @default.
