Somatografías en los Dubliners de James Joyce

Abstract

“Somatographies in James Joyce’s Dubliners" brings to the forefront a means to
read some of his stories as literatures of the body, a narrative world that involves
a vehicle to imagine and visualize the bodies of his characters. Dubliners take us
into a journey where one can corroborate the depiction of physical change within
each of the individuals in the text. This body-reading prompts an intimate bond
between readers and characters. A mapping of the protagonists not only places
characters in a text but also brings them close to our perceptions.
