Trip to Pola (Pula)

  The Joyces arrived in Pola, Austria (now Pula, Croatia) on 21st October 1904, the next day after they arrived in Trieste, tired and travel-worn, and discovered that there was not a position available for him as he had expected; but fortunately he was told by Almidano Artifoni to work for a new Berlitz school at Pola, 150 miles south of Trieste on the Istrian peninsula. The Joyces stayed in Pola until March 1905. According to Richard Ellmann's biography James Joyce (rev.1982), Pola was 'a queer old place' to Nora, 'a back-of-God-speed place,' in fact, 'a naval Siberia' to Joyce (186).

 (Saturday 22 June) A miniature of Pola, near the Amphitheatre: "Pula arose on the most magnificent coastal areas of the Croatian North Adriatic, three thousand years ago. Ever since, the old, historical town has been cherished carefully by generations, firstly being the pride of the Roman emperors, and later also the prime of the Austrian Kaisers."
