Collection of James Joyce papers available online: "An important collection of material concerning James Joyce’s life and work has been made available online by the National Library of Ireland.
The collection is unusual for the personal nature of some of the documents included: it contains a number of manuscript drafts and proofs of Finnegans Wake, but it also covers several letters between Joyce and his son Giorgio and Giorgio’s wife Helen about such family matters as Joyce’s marriage, the illness of his daughter Lucia, and the nervous breakdown of Helen Joyce and her separation from Giorgio.
Donated
The documents are owned by the James Joyce Foundation, Zurich. They were donated to the foundation by the late Hans Jahnke, the son of Giorgio’s second wife, Dr Asta Jahnke-Osterwalder, in 2006."
