They have also been home to generations of citizens &#8212; some famous, many forgotten. Michael&#8217;s book demonstrates why out of all the streets that the Joyce family lived on, North Richmond Street and its environs commands the most attention in his great novels and short stories. At the same time, the study rescues from the dusty records of history dozens of other gallant women, men and children who lived, worked and played here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Michael graduated from Maynooth University with a B.A. degree in local studies and a Ph.D for an international relations topic. In this work he has deployed his skills as a historian to investigate the historical context and semi-autobiographical nature of the short story &#8216;<strong>Araby<\/strong>&#8216; in Joyce&#8217;s&nbsp;<em>Dubliners,&nbsp;<\/em>and in related aspects of&nbsp;<em><strong>Ulysses<\/strong><\/em>. Michael also leads, with fellow Joycean Billy Fitzpatrick, the popular Fr. John Conmee, S.J. Walking Tour every year on Bloomsday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book was first published privately during the Covid-19 pandemic by the&nbsp;<strong>Irish National Organisation of the Unemployed<\/strong>&nbsp;(<strong>INOU<\/strong>), which is headquartered in none other than Araby House, and where Michael worked for a number of years prior to his retirement. The book has now been republished by the James Joyce Centre and will be launched by the Dublin artist and designer,&nbsp;<strong>Robert Ballagh.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At&nbsp;<strong>\u20ac15<\/strong>&nbsp;per copy (2 for&nbsp;<strong>\u20ac25<\/strong>), it offers the perfect Christmas gift for Joyceans and all those with an interest in Dublin&#8217;s local history. Copies are also available for purchase in our gift shop and for shipping worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The event is free but booking is essential. Doors open at 6pm.<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eventbrite.ie\/e\/araby-house-james-joyce-and-north-richmond-street-by-dr-michael-quinn-tickets-1092513450139?aff=oddtdtcreator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Click this link for tickets.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The James Joyce Centre is supported by the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.ie\/en\/organisation\/department-of-tourism-culture-arts-gaeltacht-sport-and-media\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4416,"parent":0,"template":"","event_cats":[18],"class_list":["post-4414","events","type-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event_categories-book-launch"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Araby House and James Joyce - James Joyce Centre, Dublin, Ireland<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Araby House and James Joyce - James Joyce Centre, Dublin, Ireland\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Book Launch by Michael Quinn 6 December 2024 at 6.30pm Join us at the James Joyce Centre on&nbsp;Friday, December 6th at 6.30pm&nbsp;for a special presentation of a fascinating social study entitled&nbsp;Araby House, James Joyce and all the Neighbours on North Richmond Street, Dublin, 1820-1998&nbsp;by&nbsp;Dr. Michael Quinn.
