Abstract
Modernism has frequently been characterized as a retreat into subjectivity, and Joyce's use of the “stream of consciousness” technique has been taken as representative of this. Drawing on Vygotsky's concept of inner speech, however, this chapter will argue that Joyce's narrative devices might better be understood as probing the limits of subjectivity. Interiority in Joyce never loses contact with the external world, thus calling into question distinctions between public and private, mind and body, inner and outer worlds. This re-imagining of interiority featured in a number of key recent Dublin public artworks by Frances Hegarty and Andrew Stones, and Amanda Coogan. On these terms, Molly Bloom's interior monologue is closer to interior dialogue, a colloquy of voices that is no less public for being conducted in the privacy of her bedroom.
