Lucia Joyce
So what else happened on the day that Ern posted the card to Libby?
Well, the 26th. July 1907 marked the birth in Trieste, Austria-Hungary (now Italy) of Lucia Joyce.
Lucia Anna Joyce was an Irish professional dancer and the daughter of Irish writer James Joyce and Nora Barnacle.
Once treated by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung, Lucia was diagnosed as schizophrenic in the mid-1930's and institutionalized at the Burghölzli psychiatric clinic in Zurich.
In 1951, she was transferred to St. Andrew's Hospital in Northampton, where she remained until her death in 1982. St. Andrew's is a mental health facility.
Lucia was the aunt of Stephen James Joyce, who was the last descendant of James Joyce.
-- Lucia Joyce - The Early Years
Lucia Anna Joyce was born in the Ospedale Civico di Trieste. She was the second child of Irish writer James Joyce and his partner (later wife) Nora Barnacle, after her brother Giorgio.
As her parents were expatriates living in Trieste, Lucia's first language was Italian. In her younger years, she trained as a dancer at the Dalcroze Institute in Paris. She studied dancing from 1925 to 1929 and was taught by Raymond Duncan (brother of Isadora Duncan) at his school near Salzburg.
In 1927, Joyce danced a short duet as a toy soldier in Jean Renoir’s film adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen's "La Petite marchande d’allumettes"
In 1928, Lucia joined "Les Six de rythme et couleur," a commune of six female dancers that were soon performing at venues in France, Austria, and Germany.
After a performance in La Princesse Primitive at the Vieux-Colombier theatre, the Paris Times wrote of her:
"Lucia Joyce is her father's daughter. She has
James Joyce's enthusiasm, energy, and a
not-yet-determined amount of his genius.
When she reaches her full capacity for rhythmic
dancing, James Joyce may yet be known as his
daughter's father."
On the 28th. May 1929, Lucia was chosen as one of six finalists in the first international festival of dance in Paris held at the Bal Bullier.
Although she did not win, the audience, which included her father and the young Samuel Beckett, championed her performance as outstanding and loudly protested the jury's verdict.
It has been alleged that when Lucia was 21, she and Beckett (who was her father's secretary for a short time) became lovers.
Their relationship lasted only a short while, and ended after Beckett, who was involved with another woman at the time, admitted that his interest was actually in a professional relationship with James Joyce, not a personal one with Joyce's daughter.
At the age of 22, Lucia, after years of rigorous dedication and long hours of practice, decided:
"I am not physically strong
enough to be a dancer of
any kind".
Announcing that she would become a teacher, she then turned down an offer to join a group in Darmstadt, and effectively gave up dancing.
Lucia's biographer Carol Shloss, however, argues that it was her father who finally put an end to her dancing career. James reasoned that the intense physical training for ballet caused her undue stress, which in turn exacerbated the long-standing animosity between her and her mother Nora Barnacle.
The resulting incessant domestic squabbles prevented work on Finnegans Wake. James convinced her that she should turn to drawing lettrines to illustrate his prose, and forgo her deep-seated artistic inclinations.
To his patron Harriet Shaw Weaver, James Joyce wrote that:
"This resulted in a month of tears as
she thinks she has thrown away three
or four years of hard work and is
sacrificing a talent."
-- Lucia Joyce's Mental Illness and Later Life
Lucia Joyce started to show signs of mental illness in 1930, including a time period during which she was involved with Samuel Beckett, then a junior lecturer in English at the École normale supérieure in Paris.
In May 1930, while her parents were in Zurich, she invited Beckett to dinner, hoping to press him into some kind of declaration. He flatly rejected her, explaining that he was only interested in her father and his writing.
By 1934, Lucia had participated in several affairs, with her drawing teacher Alexander Calder, another expatriate artist Albert Hubbell, and Myrsine Moschos, assistant to Sylvia Beach of Shakespeare and Company.
As the year wore on, her condition had deteriorated to the point that James had Carl Jung take her in as a patient. Soon after, she was diagnosed with schizophrenia at the Burghölzli psychiatric clinic in Zurich.
In 1936, James consented to have his daughter undergo blood tests at St Andrew's Hospital in Northampton. After a short stay, Lucia Joyce insisted that she return to Paris, the doctors explaining to her father that she could not be prevented from doing so unless he had her committed.
James told his closest friends that:
"I would never agree to my daughter
being incarcerated among the English."
Lucia Joyce returned to stay with Maria Jolas, the wife of transition editor Eugene Jolas, in Neuilly-sur-Seine.
However after three weeks her condition worsened, and she was taken away in a straitjacket to the Maison de Santé Velpeau in Vésinet. Considered a danger to both staff and inmates, she was left in isolation.
Two months later, she entered the maison de santé of François Achille Delmas at Ivry-sur-Seine.
In 1951, Joyce was again transferred to St Andrew's Hospital.
In 1962, Beckett donated his share of the royalties from his 1929 contributory essay on Finnegans Wake to help pay for her confinement at St Andrew's.
In 1982, Lucia Joyce had a stroke and died in Northampton at the age of 75 on the 12th. December. She was laid to rest in Kingsthorpe Cemetery, Northampton.
-- The Legacy of Lucia Joyce
Each year on Bloomsday, extracts from James Joyce's Ulysses and other readings related to his life and works are read at Lucia Anna Joyce's graveside.
In 2018 on Bloomsday, Letters to Lucia, a play written by Richard Rose and James Vollmar in which characters from Lucia's life, including Samuel Beckett, Kathleen Neel, Nora Barnacle/Joyce and Joyce himself appear, was performed by the Triskellion Irish Theatre Company at the graveside.
Bloomsday is a commemoration and celebration of the life of James Joyce, observed annually in Dublin and elsewhere on the 16th. June, the date of his first sexual encounter with his wife-to-be, Nora Barnacle, and named after Leopold Paula Bloom, the hero of Joyce's 1922 novel Ulysses.
Lucia's mental state, and documentation related to it, is the subject of a study, Lucia Joyce: To Dance in the Wake, by Carol Loeb Shloss, who believes that Lucia Joyce was her father's muse for Finnegans Wake.
Making heavy reference to the letters between Joyce and her father, the study became the subject of a copyright misuse suit by the James Joyce estate. On the 25th. March 2007, this litigation was resolved in Shloss's favour.
Professor John McCourt, of the University of Macerata, a prize-winning Joyce scholar, trustee of the International James Joyce Foundation, and co-founder and director of the International James Joyce symposium held at Trieste, wrote in A Companion to Literary Biography that Shloss, in her "sometimes obsessive" book:
"Seeks very deliberately to depose Nora (Joyce's
wife) as Joyce's chief muse.
In doing so, it overplays its hand with exaggerated
claims about Lucia's genius and about her importance
to Joyce's creative process, and vindictively harsh
judgments on most members of the Joyce family
and circle.
The book's most damaging legacy is the cottage
industry of derivative versions of Lucia that it has
helped to spawn. It is the key source for a whole
series of writings about Lucia that uncomfortably
mix fact and fiction."
One such derivative was The Joyce Girl (2016) by Annabel Abbs, of which McCourt wrote:
"With Abbs, the perverse cycle of
interest in Lucia comes full circle.
We are back in the territory of fiction
fraudulently posing as biography.
The book is a prime contender for the
worst Joyce-inspired 'biography' ever".
The book was also the subject of criticism in the Irish Times and Irish Examiner regarding the author's "unsubstantiated speculations" regarding incest between Lucia and her brother, and the sources of her mental illness.
In 1988, Stephen Joyce had all the letters written by Lucia that he received upon her death in 1982 destroyed. Stephen Joyce stated in a letter to the editor of The New York Times that:
"Regarding the destroyed correspondence,
these were all personal letters from Lucia to
us.
They were written many years after both
Nonno and Nonna (i.e. Mr. and Mrs. Joyce)
died and did not refer to them.
Also destroyed were some postcards and
one telegram from Samuel Beckett to Lucia.
This was done at Sam's written request."
In 2004, Lucia Joyce's life was the subject of Calico, a West End play written by Michael Hastings, and, in 2012, of the graphic novel Dotter of Her Father's Eyes by Mary and Bryan Talbot.
A play exploring her life, titled L, was performed to a limited audience in Concord Academy in 2016. It was written and directed by Sophia Ginsburg.
In 2018, Lucia was the subject of a novel by Alex Pheby, titled Lucia.
Lucia Joyce is the protagonist of the "Round the Bend" chapter of Alan Moore's 2016 novel Jerusalem. Set at the Northampton clinic where she spent her final years, the chapter is written in the style of her father's Finnegans Wake.
In 2023, Joseph Chester released Lucia for Guitar & Strings, a suite for classical guitar and strings, commissioned by Axis Ballymun for the centenary celebrations of Ulysses in Dublin.
The suite had its world premiere in Dublin on Bloomsday 2023, and was released on CD, vinyl and streaming in January 2023. The suite took eleven key moments from the life of Lucia Joyce in order to paint a portrait of her in music.

Dear friends in New World,
Life is check-in and then check-out.
23 April 2008 , the first anniversary for David Halberstam. We have the Check-out ceremonial party for him.
You look to the day you check-in, We check-out.
I have never sent greetings, gifts to David on his birthday. But we have something for him the day he leaves.
The incense sticks were lit next to his photo. We believe that when the incenses finished i.e he finished his meal, and we could start "bon appetit".
My wife kept the gate and door wide open to make sure that he could get into my house to have meal with us.
The time we sat by the table was the time to think of the deceased.
Take your time, David, neither drive-in nor take-it-away King Burger.
The sign "Mr Cong with Jack + Jane Rivkin" is my seat reservation at Riverside Church at Manhattan on the 12 June 07.
On the journey, I often remind tourists " Please return the key to the front desk, make sure to clear the bills, empty your safety box ".
Some listen, some don't, some do it in a hurry, some miss this or that.
Life is check-out and recheck-in.
Best,
CONG
