Joyce in Trieste Portrait From 1915 Era
A photo of James Joyce from around 1915 shows the Irish author during his Trieste period when he wrote Giacomo Joyce. The image is part of the Croesmann Collection at Southern Illinois University, among the nation’s best Joyce archives. Richard Ellmann, editor of Giacomo Joyce, frequently uses SIU’s first editions, manuscripts, and letters in his research. Giacomo is the Italian form of James used in Joyce’s autobiographical sketch.

Joyce’s Giacomo Joyce rediscovered manuscript study
A modest but revelatory edition presents Giacomo Joyce as Joyce’s late life manuscript, detailing his unrequited longing for a Triestine unnamed woman, the aging narrator, and his own lost youth. The facsimile, two pages full size with rest reduced, accompanies careful commentary and notes on the work’s publication history and its links to Portrait and Ulysses. The piece ends with a brief account of the East India Company’s 1600 incorporation, shifting from Joyce to historical note.
