Joyce & Jung

Hiromi Yoshida is an independent literary scholar and a poet. She has taught for the Departments of English and Comparative Literature at Indiana University Bloomington. Her scholarly interests include James Joyce, Sylvia Plath, the Beat Generation, the psychoanalysis of gender and race, and poststructuralist poetics. Her literary criticism has been published in Plath Profiles, and she has authored three poetry chapbooks, Icarus Burning, Epicanthus, and Icarus Redux.

“Hiromi Yoshida’s innovative approach to A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man demonstrates how Joyce’s Stephen Dedalus reaches a heightened state of creativity through his gradual integration of feminine elements into his psyche. Her detailed afterword to the new edition of Joyce & Jung adds lucid insights to this important critical study.”—Nancy Bombaci, Associate Professor of Writing and Literature, Mitchell College, New London, Connecticut
