Synopsis
There was no hope for him this time: it was the third stroke. Night after night I had passed the house (it was vacation time) and studied the lighted square of window: and night after night I had found it lighted in the same way, faintly and evenly... Dubliners is a collection of fifteen short stories by James Joyce, first published in 1914. They form a naturalistic depiction of Irish middle class life in and around Dublin in the early years of the 20th century. The stories were written 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. They centre on Joyce's idea of an epiphany: a moment where a character experiences a life-changing self-understanding or illumination. Many of the characters in Dubliners later appear in minor roles in Joyce's novel Ulysses. The initial stories in the collection are narrated by child protagonists, and as the stories continue, they deal with the lives and concerns of progressively older people. This is in line with Joyce's tripartite division of the collection into childhood, adolescence and maturity.

Condition: Bueno. : Dubliners es una colección de quince cuentos de James Joyce, publicada por primera vez en 1914. Ofrecen una representación naturalista de la vida de la clase media irlandesa en Dublín y sus alrededores a principios del siglo XX. Los cuentos se escribieron cuando el nacionalismo irlandés estaba en su apogeo y la búsqueda de una identidad y un propósito nacional estaba en pleno apogeo. En un cruce de caminos de la historia y la cultura, Irlanda se vio sacudida por varias ideas e influencias convergentes. Se centran en la idea de Joyce de una epifanía: un momento en el que un personaje experimenta una autocomprensión o iluminación que le cambia la vida. Muchos de los personajes de Dubliners aparecen más tarde en papeles menores en la novela Ulises de Joyce. Las historias iniciales de la colección son narradas por protagonistas infantiles, y a medida que las historias continúan, tratan de las vidas y preocupaciones de personas progresivamente mayores. Esto está en consonancia con la división tripartita de Joyce de la colección en infancia, adolescencia y madurez.
