  3. Joyce spends a great deal of time and energy on the party and its guests. Discuss the party in several ways: 1. Comment on the imagery and verisimilitude of the scene. 2. Discuss the interplay between the guests. What are some of the main topics/ideas here? 3. Discuss Gabriel's speech. What's he talking about?

  4. What is the tone at the beginning of the story? How is it created? Give specific words, lines etc. What is the tone at the end of the story? Where and why does it change?

  5. If conflict is two forces in opposition, does Gabriel experience a conflict? What does he want and what/who is keeping him from getting it? Is this an internal or external conflict (or both)?

  6. Is Gabriel a developing character? What does he learn? Joyce would call Gabriel's moment of recognition an epiphany. Reword your answer to be universal and to serve as a theme for the story.

  7. Was Lily raped or used for ill by a man? Support your answer. What has the inclusion of Lily's troubles got to do with the rest of the story? Also, think about what Lily's name might mean symbolically.

  8. What part does Gabriel's interaction with Lily, early in the story, play in the development of theme?

  9. The story of Michael Furey seems to be the climax of the story. Do you agree or disagree? Explain. (You need to connect to the main conflict: see Gabriel's conflict).

  10. The last paragraph of the story is one of the most famous passages in all of English literature. What is Joyce saying?
