19. Joyce in Translations
Translations of Joyce’s works have always been in demand, and translating a work like Ulysses presents many challenges for the translator. The first complete translation of Ulysses was into German and was published in 1927. The translation was by Georg Goyert, but Joyce himself spent some time revising Goyert’s translation, and was still unhappy with it when it was published. The French translation, on which Joyce had worked with Stuart Gilbert, Auguste Morel and others, was published in 1929.
