Abstract
James Joyce was grown up before he left his twelfth year, I suppose. I don’t mean grown up in the sense of living his life consciously. No one of my acquaintance has ever practised that unique activity. Joyce became a man early in the sense that very early he had defined what his personal situation was to be in respect to his fellow man. His focus on his own particular drama was clearly defined in his mind — the difference that becomes the tragedy.
