Reading Joyce's works in the context of often forgotten contemporaries such as George Moore, George Egerton, Hannah Lynch, Shan Bullock, Forrest Reid and Charlotte O'Conor Eccles enhances our understanding of their works as well as Joyce's, both thematically and stylistically, and shines a much-needed light on previously critically underexamined writers. By focusing on the transformation of Joyce from Irish writer to Modernist artist we gain crucial insights into why many of Joyce's contemporaries are not read today despite their initial popularity. This book utilises Joyce's troubled publication and reception history to identify the wider trends of the Irish short story cycle and \u003ci\u003eBildungsroman\u003c\/i\u003e, thereby enhancing readers' understanding of the literary marketplace for Irish books in this period.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNiels Caul \u003c\/b\u003eis an adjunct faculty member of Champlain College on its Dublin campus, Ireland, and holds a PhD from University College Dublin.
