Dubliners Bookshelf collects and organizes the books of James Joyce’s short story collection
Dubliners
(1914). Books appear throughout the stories as significant objects and meaningful text. Specific books,
such as Walter Scott’s The Abbot, Lord Byron’s Poems, or the Maynooth
Catechism, reveal the literary and
textual worlds circulating in Joyce’s Dublin. They offer insights into Joyce’s characters and themes
while also suggesting a portrait of Dublin’s print culture at the turn of the twentieth century.
Dubliners Bookshelf presents these books in a digital anthology. Students, scholars, and
readers of
Joyce are welcome to explore these texts and reflect on Joyce’s bibliographic imagination.
