ESSAY ON: Refuting Kearney on Joyce's "A Mother"

Number of Pages 5

This research paper: A 5 page essay that argues against the premise taken by Martin F. Kearney's 2001 article on Joyce's short story "A Mother." This article offers a fresh interpretation of this story, as this critic argues that Joyce intended this short story to be read as an historical analogue to real events. Specifically, this critic feels that Joyce meant his story's protagonist Mrs. Kearney should conjure details from the life of real-life Irish patriot Anne Devlin, who participated in Robert Emmet's failed 1803 Dublin uprising. The writer summarizes Kearney's argument and then argues against his position. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
