The most important question, however, was should we consider Dubliners as a short story collection or merely as a novel? In other words was it James Joyce aim to write a collection of short stories or should we look deeper and understand that Dubliners is merely a rich novel, complete with motives, themes and symbols? First, I had to answer this question before I could investigate any material involving James JoyceРІР‚в„ўs Dubliners. My main goal for this thesis about James JoyceРІР‚в„ўs Dubliners, was to answer a range of questions.

Special thanks to the librarian of the Mater Dei Institute Dublin, my promoter Miss Wendy Van Humbeeck and my family. I will be your guide through James JoyceРІР‚в„ўs Dublin and through the different magnificent short stories. With this thesis I will guide you through the works of the modernist Joyce, with special emphasis on his short story collection (or novel?) Dubliners. Thanks to the Erasmusprogramme I could go over there to explore РІР‚ВJames Joyce City.РІР‚в„ў I found lots and lots of interesting material, and could linger in the streets were Joyce lingered when he was only a little boyРІР‚В¦ It is logical that I have chosen Dubliners as topic for my final thesis.
