Abstract
The rhetoric and form of the periodical press influenced Joyce's fiction, from Stephen Hero to Finnegans Wake. Joyce's immersion in the print media of late nineteenth-century Ireland during his youth, his quasi-journalistic endeavors during his time in Dublin, Pola, Rome and Trieste, and his appetite for news of Ireland during his life abroad gave him a thorough knowledge of journalistic practice and production which informs all his work. Newspapers and characters allied with the print media fill his stories and novels, and the jargon and style unique to journalism appears explicitly throughout the Joycean canon.
