Interpretation of "Eveline"
Seminar paper from the year 2007 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,0, University of Wuppertal, course: Hauptseminar James Joyce, language: English, abstract: Due to the extreme restriction to only five pages I have to keep my interpretation of "Eveline" as part of Dubliners extremely short. Yet by choosing one of the shortest stories from Dubliners I still hope to be able to say something meaningful in this short paper. In order to do so I will focus on the character of Eveline and examine in how far she can serve as an example of the paralysis that all characters in Dubliners, and especially women characters, suffer from. Eveline may thus, as many other characters in Dubliners, be considered an example of the social case histories Joyce has gathered in this book 1 .

Eveline
Eveline sits in her room thinking about the people she has lost—her mother and her brother. Her other brother is traveling for work and she is afraid that her alcoholic father will beat her with no one else to turn on. She plans to run away with a sailor with whom she has fallen in love, but will a promise made to her mother keep her at home? Critically acclaimed author James Joyce’s Dubliners is a collection of short stories depicting middle-class life in Dublin in the early twentieth century. First published in 1914, the stories draw on themes relevant to the time such as nationalism and Ireland’s national identity, and cement Joyce’s reputation for brutally honest and revealing depictions of everyday Irish life.

They miss eachother when they are separated. All they want is being together. But in James Joyce’s short story Eveline the protagonist behaves very differently. Why does she not leave with her boyfriend Frank when there seems to be nothing that holds her back? There is a plausible explanation. Eveline is not in love with Frank, she only sees him as a chance to escape from her hard life. She only hopes for a better life, but does not trust Frank. Moreover, she never mentions that she loves him, and finally she decides not to go with him.
