UCD James Joyce Research Centre In Collaboration with the James Joyce Centre    In this year of centenary commemorations in Ireland, we mark the anniversary of the publication of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man with a conference that aims to provide a forum for the discussion of one hundred years of scholarship on Joyce’s pivotal novel.
