Curran first met James Joyce in a University College Dublin lecture hall in 1899, and the two quickly struck up an intense lifelong friendship. Curran was a model for the character Gabriel in Joyce's \"The Dead\" and was also one of the first people to reject a piece of Joyce's writing--the 1904 poem \"The Holy Office,\" which Curran, as editor of \u003ci\u003eSt. Stephen's\u003c\/i\u003e, lightheartedly deemed \"an unholy thing.\" Curran even is mentioned by name in \u003ci\u003eUlysses\u003c\/i\u003e, where Stephen Dedalus recalls that he owes him ten guineas. In 1968, Curran summed up his views of the seminal Modernist author in \u003ci\u003eJames Joyce Remembered\u003c\/i\u003e. This year--the centennial anniversary of \u003ci\u003eUlysses\u003c\/i\u003e' publication--University College Dublin Press is pleased to bring forth a new edition of this classic remembrance, edited by Curran's granddaughter and featuring sparkling new essays from a host of Joyce scholars, literary critics, architects, and historians. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e This group of University College Dubliners takes a new look at Curran's work, delving into the Curran-Laird collection at the James Joyce Library to offer a singular portrait of the author and his inventive cohort of friends. The world of Joyce and Curran opens up, revealing little-known writing and episodes in political activism, during the Irish wars that flared up again in 1922 as \u003ci\u003eUlysses \u003c\/i\u003efirst began circulating, and the struggles against fascism that came to engulf Joyce's Paris. This highly illustrated tribute to a literary figurehead is perfect reading for Joyce neophytes, Bloomsday aficionados, and anyone interested in examining this watershed period of Irish history through an international lens.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e C.
