- Abstract
- In the study of Joyce, his views on the disabled have been generally neglected even though there are relatively many disabled characters throughout his works. In Ulysses, Joyce’s representation of the disabled is both complicit and critical of the cultural stereotypes. Joyce often uses disability metaphorically, pointing out fundamental flaws in immoral or biased people’s character. Though his method of representation of the disabled is sometimes stereotypical, he still conveys subversive messages. Joyce demonstrates that there are no differences between disabled and non-disabled people by depicting non-disabled people as metaphorically disabled. Furthermore, the disabilities of the disabled work positively, helping them escape from the baleful influence of blind nationalism. Joyce vividly depicts how male and female people with disability are treated differently in Ireland at the turn of the century. For instance, male characters with disabilities, such as Pat and the piano tuner, have their own jobs, while Girty seems a jobless girl who is immersed in daydreaming. As shown in the case of Girty, disability is more detrimental to women than men.
