Trieste and Joyce

A Pilgrimage to Joycean Trieste

    Trieste is a port city at the head of the Adriatic Sea.  It was part of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire when Joyce first arrived there in 1905, but its citizens had strong ties to Italy, to which the city was ceded after World War I.  Trieste is now located on the Italian side of the border with Slovenia.  From 1905 until 1915 Joyce and his family resided in Trieste (with a brief hiatus in 1907, when they moved to Rome), where he earned a living as an English language teacher.  The Joyces returned to Trieste after World War I, but they stayed only briefly (1919-1920) before moving to Paris.
  Joyce wrote most of Dubliners, some of the half-finished 914-page work Stephen Hero, all of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and some episodes of Ulysses while living in Trieste.  However, Joyce's most famous Triestine writing is Giacomo Joyce.

  There are some allusions to Trieste in Joyce's works:

The lady goes apace, apace, apace ..... Pure air on the upland road.  Trieste is waking rawly: raw sunlight over its huddled browntiled roofs, testudoform; a multitude of prostrate bugs await a national deliverance.  Belluomo rises from the bed of his wife's lover's wife: the busy housewife is astir, sloe-eyed, a saucer of acetic acid in her hand ..... Pure air and silence on the upland road: and hoofs.  A girl on horseback. Hedda! Hedda Gabler!  (Giacomo Joyce)

I expound Shakespeare to docile Trieste: Hamlet, quoth I, who is most courteous to gentle and simple is rude only to Polonius.  Perhaps, an embittered idealist, he can see in the parents of his beloved only grotesque attempts on the part of nature to produce her image ........... Marked you that?  (Giacomo Joyce)

16.0576.  And I seen a man killed in Trieste by an Italian chap. Knife in his back.
16.0577.  Knife like that.  (Ulysses)
