Indeed, it often seems the case that Bloom is treated poorly because of his loss of centredness. Not only is he the victim of prejudice for being a Jew, but also for being a Wandering Jew, in search of a return to his homeland, that being the environs of Clanbrassil Street where he was born; and indeed where Barry was born also.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"672\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/jamesjoyce.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1737635392837-672x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4639\" style=\"width:273px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jamesjoyce.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1737635392837-672x1024.jpg 672w, https:\/\/jamesjoyce.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1737635392837-197x300.jpg 197w, https:\/\/jamesjoyce.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1737635392837-768x1170.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jamesjoyce.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1737635392837-1009x1536.jpg 1009w, https:\/\/jamesjoyce.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/1737635392837.jpg 1092w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 672px) 100vw, 672px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>A native of Dublin (Bloomsian Lombard Street West), <strong>Barry Keane<\/strong>&nbsp;is a Professor of Comparative Studies in the Institute of English Studies at the University of Warsaw.
