Many works of Irish novelist James Joyce (1882-1941) abound in vivid imagination and meditation of the oriental other from Arab, Israel, India, China and Japan. The paper analyzes the oriental images in Joyce’s Dubliner, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Ulysses and Finnegans Wake. We can find that these protagonists in Joyce’s novels admire or sympathize with eastern cultures as a whole,thus comes to mind some distinctive heroes who are tolerant for other civilizations, trying to surpass Eurocentrism, racial discrimination, any violence and advocate everlasting peace for humanity. Joyce tries to criticize the injustice or limitation of the reality, highlight the dilemma between ideal and reality to construct Irish Identity through “the oriental other”. This paper also discusses the new heroism and tolerant cosmopolitanism in James Joyce’s oriental writing.
