Joyce, J. James Clarence Mangan Translation and comments by S. S. Khoruzhy

Abstract: It is the fi rst Russian publication of James Joyce’s essay ‘James Clarence Mangan’ (1920), one of the fundamental works which expresses early Joyce’s esthetic attitudes. The main hero of his essay, James K. Mangan (1803-1849), a ‘Celtic Nerval’, was a poet, translator, essay writer and one of the brightest fi gures of Irish and European late Romanticism. This essay became an important part of early Joyce’s creative works; many of the thoughts, formulas and stylistic expressions were then repeated and transformed in other Joyce’s works.
