This study investigates narrative strategies in James Joyce's stories in relation to the changing contextual situations, both in the individual narratives and in the cumulative text, context serving as a portal of entry into the narrative(s). The contextual readings uncover a double sense (of context and con/text) through a series of critical distinctions (either/or, neither/nor, both/and) that mark the double binds of Joyce's narrative implications. "Dubliners" reveals an expanding document of lives in the process of being lived, a "work in progress" rather than a closed text, in which the usual concepts of individuality are constantly being challenged. Bernard Benstock is the author of "Narrative Con/texts in Ulysses" and "Essays on Detective Fiction".
