Get a Job and Get a Life--With James Joyce: Why Reading the "Jocoserious" Joyce Is Useful Fun
Reilly, Kevin P.
Liberal Education, v106 n1-2 Win-Spr 2020
You can acquire knowledge, understanding, and habits of mind by studying James Joyce that are invaluable in a variety of ways and that many employers would like to see in their employees. What multinational organization, for instance, does not want professionals who, blending accepted wisdom with forward thinking, can critically assess business problems and find creative solutions--ones that do not compromise the organization's ethical standing in a complex, diverse global economy? And what are some of the grander, more satisfying and stimulating reasons one might want to take on this difficult author? Are the big rewards commensurate with the degree of difficulty? The author says they are and provides three reasons why James Joyce is worth reading.
