Clongowes Wood College S.J.
Sallins, Co. Kildare
19 June 2004

  Clongowes Wood College is a most celebrated Irish boys' preparatory school founded in 1814 by Rev. Peter Kenny, S.J. and still run by the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits) in County Kildare, west of Dublin (1 hour by car from the city centre).  In Joyce's time, it was considered the best Catholic school of Ireland.  Joyce entered Clongowes in September 1888 and studied there until June 1891; although Joyce had to leave here because of his father's financial problem, he was very proud of having studied here throughout his life.  Stephen Dedalus, the protagonist of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, also attended the school, so it is the major setting of the chapter one.  This seven-day boarding school now has about 450 students.
