Giorgio Joyce

Giorgio JoyceSon of JJ and Nora Joyce, born in Trieste on 27 July 1905. The family's frequent change of residence while in Trieste, their abrupt move to Zurich in 1915, the return to Trieste in 1919, and then departure for Paris in 1920 left him with an educationally erratic childhood. He preferred to be known as "George" from his teen years. After a short bank employment in Paris, he became interested in a singing career and studied with a private voice teacher. A debut in Paris in 1929 presaged a desultory career. He performed on radio broadcasts with the National Broadcasting Company in New York in November and December 1934, later in London on the BBC, and had several appearances in postwar Zurich. On 10 December 1930 he married Helen Kastor Fleischman of New York, and their son Stephen James Joyce was born on 15 February 1933. The couple lived in New York (when he was briefly introduced to President Roosevelt) from May 1934 until late 1935. His father's numerous extended letters during this time seem to have gone mostly unanswered. Helen's mental breakdown led to her return to the United States in 1940, Giorgio and Stephen spent several months with James and Nora in unoccupied France before the four took refuge in Zurich in December. Giorgio remained in Zurich after his father's death in 1941; Stephen moved to the United States to live with his mother's family. Giorgio married the German oculist Dr. Asta Osterwalder in 1954 and the couple moved to Munich. In 1955 family friend Maria Jolas gave Giorgio a trunk of hundreds of letters to his father from the 1920s and 1930s; the present location of this collection is uncertain. Though he took little interest in his father's writing and literary legacy, Giorgio was present at the opening of JJ's and Nora's "honorary grave" in Zurich on 16 June 1966 and as an invited guest of honour at the First International James Joyce Symposium 1967. He died on 12 June 1976 and is buried with JJ and Nora Joyce and Asta Osterwalder in Zurich's Fluntern Cemetery. Fritz Senn and William Brockman

乔治·乔伊斯（Giorgio Joyce）为詹姆斯·乔伊斯（James Joyce，原文简称JJ）与诺拉·乔伊斯之子，1905年7月27日生于的里雅斯特。其家族在的里雅斯特期间频繁迁居，1915年突然迁往苏黎世，1919年重返的里雅斯特，又于1920年迁居巴黎，这使得他的童年教育极为无规律。他从青少年时期起便偏好他人以"George"称呼自己。在巴黎短暂从事银行工作后，他对歌唱事业产生了兴趣，并跟随私人声乐教师学习。1929年在巴黎的首演预示了他此后职业生涯的断断续续。1934年11月至12月，他先后在纽约的美国全国广播公司（National Broadcasting Company）电台节目中演出，之后又在伦敦的英国广播公司（BBC）献声，并在战后的苏黎世进行了数次演出。1930年12月10日，他与来自纽约的海伦·卡斯特·弗莱施曼（Helen Kastor Fleischman）成婚，两人之子斯蒂芬·詹姆斯·乔伊斯（Stephen James Joyce）于1933年2月15日出生。1934年5月至1935年末，夫妇二人定居纽约，在此期间他曾短暂会晤罗斯福总统。这段时间里，他父亲寄来的多封长信大多未获回复。海伦精神崩溃后于1940年返回美国，乔治与斯蒂芬在未被占领的法国与詹姆斯、诺拉共处数月，随后四人于同年12月前往苏黎世避难。1941年父亲逝世后，乔治留在苏黎世；斯蒂芬则前往美国，投奔母亲的亲属。1954年，乔治与德国眼科医生阿斯塔·奥斯特瓦尔德（Asta Osterwalder）博士成婚，随后两人迁居慕尼黑。1955年，家族友人玛丽亚·若拉斯（Maria Jolas）赠予乔治一箱总计数百封的信件，这些信件均为20世纪20至30年代寄给他父亲的，目前该藏品的下落不明。尽管乔治对父亲的作品与文学遗产并无太多兴趣，但他仍出席了1966年6月16日在苏黎世举行的詹姆斯·乔伊斯与诺拉·乔伊斯"纪念墓"揭幕仪式，并作为特邀贵宾参加了1967年首届詹姆斯·乔伊斯国际研讨会。乔治于1976年6月12日逝世，与詹姆斯·乔伊斯、诺拉·乔伊斯及阿斯塔·奥斯特瓦尔德一同安葬于苏黎世的弗卢特恩公墓（Fluntern Cemetery）。整理：弗里茨·森（Fritz Senn）与威廉·布罗克曼（William Brockman）
