Birth and Troubled Education
James Joyce was born in Dublin, Ireland, on February 2, 1882, to John Stanislaus Joyce, a state tax collector struggling with alcoholism, and Mary Jane Murray Joyce.
His father's dismissal from work led to James' expulsion from the prestigious Jesuit Belvedere College at the age of nine. For two years, the young Joyce educated himself as best he could.
University and Rejection of Catholicism
At the age of 17, Joyce enrolled at University College Dublin, another Jesuit institution.
However, his studies were marked by a growing disillusionment with the strictures of Catholicism, particularly the requirement of celibacy for priests.
