Publisher Description: Deriving its title from Stephen Dedalus's observation in Ulysses that the artist is the father of all his race, the father of his own grandfather, Joyce's Grandfathers is a study of literary relationship and the ways in which a truly new work of art can shed new light on the themes and techniques of older ones. John M. Warner first places Ulysses within the tradition of the English novel and then reads the works of earlier writers - Defoe, Smollet and Sterne - through the lens of Joyce's masterpiece. The result is a significant addition to the study of both 18th- and 20th-century literature.
