Dublin was a strange mix of the oral and literate cultures. It is
with these words that Seamus Dean describes the linguistic
environment in which James Joyce grew up from his earliest years
and which left its mark on the whole of his artistic work. It is
the aim of this study to demonstrate the interrelationships between
the oral and written language in Joyce's narrative works and to
show how he indeed documented in his epiphanies fragments of the
oral language of everyday Dublin, but increasingly remodelled in an
experimental narrative form the whole body of oral and written
language which he was able to absorb and retain in his phenomenal
memory: this he did right through to Finnegans Wake, in which he
transformed traditional oral and written discourse into a language
of his own. The work takes into account the most recent research on
Joyce, research on dialogue as well as basic theoretical research
on oral and written language. Contents: Oral Discourse in the
Epiphanies and Dubliners - A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man:
Stephen Dedalus and Language - Oral and Written Discourse in
Ulysses - Oral and Written Discourse as Elements of Dream Language
in Finnegans Wake.
