An Encounter is a short story by James Joyce. It is second in a collection of Joyce's short stories called Dubliners. It involves a boy, the narrator, and his friend, Mahony, taking a day off from school and going to the shore, to seek adventure in their otherwise dull lives. As the narrator says, "The mimic warfare of the evening became at last as wearisome to me as the routine of school in the morning because I wanted real adventures to happen to myself. But real adventures, I reflected, do not happen to people who remain at home: they must be sought abroad." ...more on Wikipedia about "An Encounter"

Dubliners is a collection of short stories by James Joyce, published in 1914. The fifteen stories were meant to be a frank and satirical depiction of the Irish lower middle classes living in and around Dublin in the early years of the 20th century. Joyce, who would later be acknowledged as the pioneer of stream of consciousness writing, here uses a more superficially realist style to give a crisp, yet intriguing description of characters. The stories were written at the time when Irish nationalism was at its peak, and a search for a national identity and purpose was raging; at a crossroads of history and culture, Ireland was jolted by various converging ideas and influences. These stories seem to depict the conflicts these influences generate in the lives of the townsfolk of Dublin, often quite unflatteringly. Many of the characters in Dubliners later appear in minor roles in Joyce's novel Ulysses. ** The initial stories in the collection focus on children as protagonists, and as the stories continue they deal with the lives and concerns of progressively older people. They also grow correspondingly more sophisticated and subtle in effect. ...more on Wikipedia about "Dubliners"

Lucia Joyce, daughter of Irish writer James Joyce and Nora Barnacle, was born in Trieste on July 26 1907, speaking Italian as her first language. She studied ballet while she was a teenager, becoming good enough to train with Isadora Duncan. She started to show signs of mental illness in 1930, around the time she began casually dating Samuel Beckett. Her deteriorating mental state caused him to call off the relationship, and in 1934, Carl Jung took her in as a patient. Soon after, she was diagnosed with schizophrenia at a Burghölz psychiatric clinic in Zurich. She died in a mental hospital in Northampton, England, in 1982. ...more on Wikipedia about "Lucia Joyce"

Stanislaus Joyce ( December 17, 1884- June 16, 1955), teacher, scholar, and writer; brother of James Joyce. Considered a “whetstone” by his more famous brother, who shared his ideas and his books with him, Stanislaus was three years younger than James, and a constant boyhood companion. Stanislaus rebelled against his native Ireland as his brother had done, and in 1905, he joined James’s household in Trieste on Via Caterina, 1. He worked as an English-language teacher in the Berlitz School alongside his brother. In 1903, he had already begun to keep a diary that recorded his own thoughts on philosophical and literary matter as well as those of his brother; he later resumed this diary in Trieste. This “Book of Days,” as he called it, shed lights on James Joyce’s life between the years 1906 and 1909. The diary indicates that Stanislaus, truly “his brother’s keeper,” was called upon to rescue his brother from financial difficulties time and time again. After 1908, he maintained his own address, although he may have lived with his brother again for a time in 1909. Arrested as an irredentist on December 28, 1914, at the beginning of World War I, he was interned by the Austrians at Katzenau, near Linz. After his release, he moved in with his sister Eileen's family. Stanislaus took his brother’s teaching position at Trieste’s Scuola Superiore di Commercio “Revoltella” in 1920; this school later became assimilated into the University of Trieste and he continued on as a non-tenured professor of English until his death. On August 13, 1928, Stanislaus married Nelly Lichtensteiger. They had one son—James—who was born in February 1943. Due to his anti-Fascist views, Stanislaus moved to Florence sometime in 1941, where he may have been protected from the Germans by various wealthy Italian and American families. He later published Recollections of James Joyce (1950); published after his death on June 16 (“ Bloomsday”) were My Brother’s Keeper (1957) and Dublin Diary (1962). In the 1950’s, Stanislaus had also assisted Richard Ellmann, his brother’s biographer, with Ellmann’s monumental James Joyce (1959). ...more on Wikipedia about "Stanislaus Joyce"
