A Jungian Portrait of Stephen Dedalus' Unconscious Strife

Master thesis | Literary Studies (MA)

This thesis provides a Jungian perspective on Joyce's representation of Stephen Dedalus' developmental journey to adulthood and his quest to become a successful artist. It analyses the parallels between Joyce's conception of the unconscious mind and Jung's intricate map of the psyche found in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916) and Ulysses (1922).
