Relying on a stream-of-consciousness narrative rich with sensory detail, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man describes Stephen Dedalus’s journey from conflicted boy to nascent artist. The character is based loosely on the author’s own development as a writer.
Beginning in rural Ireland, it depicts the religious conflicts of the era through the eyes of young Dedalus, who attends a religious school and is subjected to its restrictive mores.
However, his experiences with sex and other secular pursuits eventually persuade him that an ecclesiastical life is not for him. He is far too fascinated by other pleasures and resolves to devote his life to art instead.
Irish author and playwright James Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man was first published in 1914-15. Based on his own youth and coming of age, Joyce uses his experiences with school, the church, and leaving Ireland for Paris as a young man to bring vibrant authenticity to the novel.
The novel A portrait of the Artist as a Young Man has many important symbols, including colors, as opposing colors, particularly red and green, represent opposites or opposing views; Daedalus, as references to birds, wings, and flying develop the symbolic link between art and flying; and the wading girl, representing a muse, a goddess who inspires artists to create. Important motifs include father figures and quotations.

I am annoyed at the people who are annoyed by the narattor. Everyone has a unique personality and i would prefer an enthusiastic teacher over a dull one anyday. It actually imprints the words in our brains and leaves a lasting impression on our memory i.e. it helps us remember better.
Plus, he is a gem for giving us quality content with great animation for free, so be thankful guys.
Gotta appreciate Russell’s tone of voice in these videos - he trying to make it less boring
Exactly. Because most of these novels are so damn boring
hope this man has got both a raise and a promotion
I find the Course Hero summaries immensely helpful because they focus on precisely the most important points of a book. However, it would be nice if they are presented with less varying intonation because it's sort of distracting (and mildly annoying?). Well done in any case.
I agree with you!
@@sarat.8029 Well, well, well...look who I ran into ;)
Summary starts at 3:40, y'all
Thank you
Such a thorough explanation! He literally put in so much effort 👌
I love these videos, they are so helpful and enjoyable. Thank you so much.
Very helpful to clear doubts. Perfect explanation in a vivid language.
I've already read this book, but now that I'm rediscovering it, I'm extremely intimidated. I'm not an expert on poetry and world literature, nor do I know Latin nor any language other than English and Spanish. I'm also preparing to reread Ulysses with a guidebook, but it seems that it would be important to study poetry for a year or two before making the attempt.
Perfect content but I wish the narration was a little less animated. It's distracting.
stop screaming at me
Thank you
WELL EXPLAINED 🖤🖤🖤
Excellent content
Video is helpful but this over ethusiastic tone of the narrator is irritating.
🤣🤣🤣
Yah... little bit
Hi. I have this novel in the exam and I'll be gratful if you can help me understand it
Yeah, seriously 😂
It's not a tone
He just has a strong local I Irish accent 😆
Very helpful thank you ❤
what do Stephen and Dedalus stand for?
Dedalus stands for the Greek inventor who lost his son Icarus when they tried to escape Minos. There is a line in Ulysses where Stephen Bloom compares himself with a lapwing, the theory is that lapwings pretend to fall to distract predators from their nest. Apparently this is a sign of cowardice in English culture, as provided by Romantic poetry.
Dedalus and Bloom are essentially the same character, they both serve as alter ego's for Joyce in his books, and so the comparison to the lapwing shows Joyce's endless struggle to overcome Catholicism and his Ireland, constantly oscillating between identifying himself with the images of an eagle and a lapwing, respectively Daedalus, who was a great inventor but also a great coward who eventually paid with the death of his son. So, in a way, Joyce compares himself to be a *modern* tragic hero. He is modern because he perceives the mythology upon which the modern world is built, he is a hero because he desires to have a purpose, yet he also believes he is a coward because he can't find the means to escape this mythology and create something real, instead replacing it with another myth.(*) He is a product of his time, his education, his culture, and that is his greatest struggle.
(*) For example, Bloom is married and it's quite obvious the marriage only stands because a divorce is considered taboo in Irish society. Marriage defined as a holy vow that cannot be broken without penalty is considered a myth nowadays in western society. At the same time, Bloom tries to fill his meaningless life with another mythology, Homer's Odyssey, the oldest story in Western literature. Starting from there, he deconstructs his life as if it were to encapsulate the entire history of European literature, portraying himself as a product of history.
Am I the only one that doesn’t find his loudness irritating? Why is the video super helpful to me this way? Could I be autistic?

Could the lecturer be any more irritating?? try taking it down about 27 notches.
Yeah, very irritating, shame, like the content...
What exactly is your problem here?
I feel like he's shouting at me - which is sad because the content is good.
Who is the first modernist author? Would it be Marcel Proust?
i think u could trace it back to Baudelaire

Jesus Christ, I was hoping for a pleasant synopsis and explanation. Why does this man insist on being so loud and grating?

Do you not get this excited about Joyce?
