Sie war das begabte Kind eines der größten Schriftsteller der literarischen Moderne, und sie endete in der Psychiatrie: Lucia Joyce. Ihre Geschichte ist das Drama, das Kind eines Genies zu sein. In ihrer Familie war kein Platz für eine zweite Künstlerin. Es gibt wenig Dokumente von ihr, denn der Enkelsohn von James Joyce hat alle ihre Briefe verbrannt. Feature-Autorin Grace Yoon erzählt in ihrem Feature die Geschichte einer ungewöhnlich und beinahe vergessenen Frau.
James Joyce, quizá el novelista más importante de la literatura moderna y una de las mentes más brillante en la historia del arte, escribió de todo, poemas, piezas de teatro, cuentos y novelas. Pero quizá sus dos obras más importantes, sus hijos, fueron las menos celebres. Su primer hijo, Giorgio, terminó perdido en el alcoholismo. Y su hija menor, Lucia, fue una mujer que pagó el precio de ser la hija de una mente brutalmente inteligente. No solo heredó la debilidad visual de su padre y los complejos del artista no reconocido, además, Lucia Joyce terminó recluida en un manicomio, fue borrada de la historia familiar y murió sola, hundida en una profunda y obscura locura.
Musician Joe Chester has produced a beautiful musical tribute to Lucia Joyce, the dancer and illustrator. Daughter of James Joyce, Lucia was born in Trieste in 1907. She would spend more than four decades of her life in institutions after being diagnosed as schizophrenic in the mid-1930s. 'Lucia' by Joe Chester is his first major composition for classical guitar & strings, inspired by her journey. Support TCB: www.patreon.com/threecastlesburning

Historias Mínimas de Lucia Joyce, la hija loca de James Joyce, por Pablo Durio.
Sono sempre cresciuto con il culto della parola scritta e del giornalismo tradizionale e ho sempre pensato ai social come simbolo del male e dell'immiserimento del discorso pubblico. Poi però ho cambiato idea e mi sono innamorato dei social, soprattutto di Instagram – spiega Filippo Ceccarelli, giornalista politico e scrittore, parlando del suo libro "Lì dentro. Gli italiani nei social" (Feltrinelli, 336 p., € 19,00). Si dice che i social rischino di produrre l'abolizione del confronto dialettico, si lanciano grida di allarme contro le fake news, ma tutto questo in realtà ha sempre fatto parte del nostro carattere. Più che rispecchiare la nostra società e la nostra storia, i social la rimodellano e la ridefiniscono, contribuendo a formare nuovi stili di vita e una nuova antropologia – conclude Ceccarelli.RECENSIONI"Il segreto di Lucia Joyce"di Luigi Guarnieri (La Nave di Teseo, 192 p., € 19,00)"Il giardino d'acqua"di Andrea Pagani (Ronzani editore, 206 p., € 15,00)"Bere come un vero scrittore. 100 ricette per ricreare i drink che hanno ispirato i giganti della letteratura" (Il Saggiatore, 296 p., € 14,90)"Vivian Maier"a cura di Anne Morin (Skirà, € 38,00)"Vita di Vivian Maier"di Ann Marks (Utet, 384 p., € 32,00)"10 x 10.

Born to white Irish parents in West London, but with the colouring and facial features of a mixed race child, Anthony's appearance led to family strife, police harassment, and – eventually – accusations of “passing” as black in order to gain Arts Council funds. The subsequent media and Twitter storm – along with Anthony's lifelong struggle to be accepted for who he is – is as fascinating as it is emotional. We’re grateful to him for sharing his story with us. Plus Joanna (“Jo”) Neary raises Lucia Joyce up onto The Plastic Pedestal.
Bonfires and book blurbs, "Cat Person" controversy, and Lori and Sam chat with author Alex Pheby about his novel that imagines the life (and the death) of Lucia Joyce.
Violet Gibson, an Irishwoman who attempted to shoot Italy's fascist leader Mussolini, is one among a host of fascinating characters in Evelyn Conlon's new short story collection, Moving About The Place. In 1926, she fired on ‘Il Duce' as he walked among the crowd in a piazza in Rome. Her bullet skimmed his nose. The crowd attacked the would-be assassin, but the police intervened. Violet was committed to an asylum and never released – the same institution where Lucia Joyce spent more than thirty years. “Difficult women were locked up for all sorts of reasons,” says Evelyn.

Ravel's beautiful Pavane For A Dead Princess touches many people. While it is not actually about a dead princess it does evoke a sense loss. For Carla van Raay it symbolises the loss of innocence she experienced after sexual abuse as a child which led her to make some difficult life choices. Deal Hudson played it to prisoners in Atlanta and was moved by their reaction. At an academy for troubled teenagers in California the Pavane had a similar effect. Genevieve Monneris comes from the town where Ravel was born on the border with Spain. Her film Henri and Pat tells the story of three French airman who were stationed in York during World War Two. Just days before Henri's plane was shot down the three young men went to a concert of Ravel's music in York. So the piece has a strong emotional meaning for Genevieve whose own father was also stationed with the RAF in York. Professor Barbara Kelly of the Royal Northern College of Music explains the background to the Pavane's composition and why it appeals to the emotions in such a powerful way. Although it was written at the end of the 19th century it became more widely known in the 1920s. That was when a young woman called Lucia Joyce daughter of James Joyce danced to it with her avant garde dance group. The writer Annabel Abbs tells Lucia's tragic story of how her life ended in a mental asylum and how she almost became the imaginary 'dead princess'. Versions used: Pavane Pour Une Infante Défunte William Orbit Julian Bream James Rhodes Maurice Ravel Ravel Pavane arrangement for harp and cello Producer: Maggie Ayre
Today on Alternate Histories, I am joined by UK writer and novelist Annabel Abbs. "Annabel has a degree in English Literature from the University of East Anglia and a Masters in Marketing from the University of Kingston After fifteen years running a consultancy, she took a career break to bring up her four children, before returning to her first love, literature. Her debut novel, The Joyce Girl, won the 2015 Impress Prize for New Writing and the 2015 Spotlight First Novel Award, and was longlisted for the 2015 Caledonia Novel Award and the 2015 Bath Novel Award." She joins my from her home in London via Zoom to discuss The Joyce Girl: A Novel of Jazz Age Paris. "The review in the Paris Times in November 1928 is rapturous in its praise of Lucia Joyce's skill and artistry as a dancer. The family has made their home in Paris—where the latest ideas in art, music, and literature converge. Acolytes regularly visit the Joyce apartment to pay homage to Ireland's exiled literary genius. Among them is a tall, thin young man named Samuel Beckett—a fellow Irish expat who idolizes Joyce and with whom Lucia becomes romantically involved. Lucia is both gifted and motivated, training tirelessly with some of the finest teachers in the world. Though her father delights in his daughter's talent, she clashes with her mother, Nora. And as her relationship with Beckett sours, Lucia's dreams unravel, as does her hope of a life beyond her father's shadow. With Lucia's behavior growing increasingly erratic, James Joyce sends her to pioneering psychoanalyst Carl Jung. Here, at last, she will tell her own story—a fascinating, heartbreaking account of thwarted ambition, passionate creativity, and the power of love to both inspire and destroy. The Joyce Girl creates a compelling and moving account of the real-life Joyce Girl, of unrealized dreams and rejection, and of the destructive love of a father."

Francesca D'Aloja"Corpi speciali"La nave di Teseowww.lanavediteseo.euIn questo libro si raccontano le storie di uomini e donne di grande talento: alcuni molto famosi, altri ingiustamente dimenticati e talvolta incompresi, che trovano qui un meritato risarcimento. Tutti loro sono i “corpi speciali”.Quali sono le persone straordinarie che hai incontrato nella tua vita? E quali altre avresti dato tutto per conoscere? In una galleria di personaggi memorabili, Francesca d'Aloja alterna ritratti dal vivo e ricostruzioni narrative appassionate. Da una parte abbiamo i volti raccontati attingendo a incontri, ricordi e aneddoti privati: da Vittorio Gassman all'amato suocero Dino Risi, da Laura Antonelli a Ray Charles, dalla timida figlia di Albert Camus, Catherine, a Franca Valeri, da Edith Bruck a Luciana Castellinae Claudio Caligari, il regista di film “maledetti”. Ma il viaggio prosegue seguendo le piste di personaggi che sono tutti al limite della leggenda. Veniamo condotti in giro per il mondo, dalle montagne del Tibet, insieme al primo uomo occidentale diventato Lama, ai ghiacci dell'Antartide, dai palchi dove si esibisce la sfortunata e bellissima ballerina Lucia Joyce, figlia di James, alle arene dove volteggia il più grande torero vivente. Grandi verità inascoltate e bugie clamorose riprendono vita intorno alla testimonianza dei lager nazisti. Fino ad approdare alle palestre della Romania di Ceausescu, dove qualcuno nota una bambina che sta per diventare la prima stella della ginnastica mondiale: Nadia Comaneci.Con entusiasmo, pietà, divertimento e commozione, l'autrice, avendo per compagni d'avventura i propri miti, entra nelle esistenze di artisti, esploratori, donne di mondo e scrittori vagabondi segnati dalla stessa smania di vivere. Una galleria di vite “maiuscole” che stimolano la fantasia del lettore come personaggi di un grande romanzo.Francesca d'Aloja è nata e vive a Roma. Scrittrice, attrice e regista, ha lavorato tra gli altri con Vittorio Gassman, Carlo Verdone, Ferzan Özpetek, Ettore Scola, Ricky Tognazzi e Marco Risi. Ha debuttato nella narrativa nel 2007 con il romanzo Il sogno cattivo, seguito da Anima viva nel 2015 e da Cuore, sopporta nel 2018. Nel 2018 ha pubblicato, insieme a Edoardo Albinati, Otto giorni in Niger.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.it

Ser hijo de un genio puede convertirse en una pesada losa. Es lo que le sucedió a Lucia, la hija de James Joyce, cuya trayectoria vital y profesional estuvo marcada por el carácter egoísta y caótico de su padre. Su historia, marcada por la insatisfacción, la dificultad de encontrarse a sí misma y los problemas psiquiátricos la cuenta Annabel Abbs en su primera novela, “La hija de Joyce” (Galaxia Gutenberg), narrada a partir de las sesiones de terapia a la que le sometió el psicoanalista Carl Jung .En esta nueva edición de los Búfalos Nocturnos pasearemos a través de la tormentosa biografía de Lucia Joyce; hablaremos con Rubén Hernández, editor de Errata Naturae sobre el libro “Geopolítica de las series o el triunfo global del miedo”, de Dominique Möisi ; conoceremos las costumbres lectoras del escritor Luisgé Martín; descubriremos la figura del pianista canadiense Glenn Gould gracias al musicólogo Pablo L. Rodríguez y visitaremos la exposición “El infierno según Rodin” en el CaixaForum de Barcelona.
We were joined by Annabel Abbs, author of the critically acclaimed debut The Joyce Girl, to discuss the reasons why Lucia Joyce has been erased from history.
Imagine being the daughter of one of the world's most experimental and famous writers. Lucia Joyce was the troubled and talented daughter of James Joyce. Surrounded by bohemian life, he fragile mental health led to a long battle to regain her life.
