Abstract
ABSTRACT:This essay considers possible sources for Stephen's list of coordinates in A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, suggesting that an intertext with the work of English astronomer Sir Joseph Norman Lockyer (1836-1920) provides not only a credible template but also a mode of imaginative "telescoping" that enables Stephen to develop imaginative "flight" as a complement to empirical, terrestrial observation and experience.
期刊介绍：
Founded in 1963 at the University of Tulsa by Thomas F. Staley, the James Joyce Quarterly has been the flagship journal of international Joyce studies ever since. In each issue, the JJQ brings together a wide array of critical and theoretical work focusing on the life, writing, and reception of James Joyce. We encourage submissions of all types, welcoming archival, historical, biographical, and critical research. Each issue of the JJQ provides a selection of peer-reviewed essays representing the very best in contemporary Joyce scholarship. In addition, the journal publishes notes, reviews, letters, a comprehensive checklist of recent Joyce-related publications, and the editor"s "Raising the Wind" comments.
