Conference Description: The conference marks the centenary of the publication of Joyce’s masterpiece, Ulysses (1922), described as “the most dangerous book” and the “novel to end all novels.” The conference brings together psychoanalysts, academics, scholars, students, and all interested in the writing of Joyce and contemporary psychoanalytic theory and practice to explore the lasting importance of Joyce’s literature, how and why Joyce’s writing is important to psychoanalysis, and why the work of Joyce continues to both reflect and make a deep impression on the contemporary psyche. The conference takes place in the Old Physics Theatre and Saloon at the Museum of Literature Ireland (MoLI), the former home of University College Dublin and Joyce’s alma mater, and will offer a range of talks, panel presentations, discussions, debate, and live music performance. The conference will address the following themes:

– Why Read Joyce: The Significance of Joyce’s Writing as Textual and Reading Practice?

– Joyce’s Writing and its Relationship to Language

– Joyce’s Symptom: Creativity, Inventiveness, and the Artist

– The Role of the Senses and Sonority in Joyce and a Psychical Factor

– Exile, the Foreign, and the Domain of the Unconscious
