    James Joyce-A Little Cloud

    • 10 Pages

    James Joyce - A Little Cloud (in: Dubliners) A Little Cloud has not generated significant critical debate‚ despite Warren Beck’s unorthodox interpretation of the denouement in 1969. Chandler’s relationship with his son – not with his wife Annie or journalist/ friend Gallaher – could be the crucial‚ epiphanal element of the story - Joyce portraying a father who is just beginning to ‘learn [...] what the heart is and what it feels’ (A Portrait 252)‚ a man whose conscience is awakened‚ despite his

    In the short story “Araby” by James Joyce‚ adoration appears not only in religion but also in a young boy’s romantic fantasy toward an older girl.

This idea furthers itself when “the space of the sky above us was the color ever-changing violet and towards it the lamps of the street lifted their feeble lanterns.” The personification of the feeble lamps lifting their lanterns towards the sky

The visual and symbolic details embeddedin each story‚ however‚ are highly concentrated‚ and each story culmi-nates in an epiphany.
