The grief Joyce felt for his father’s loss is offset by the new life. James Joyce’s grandson was born on February 15, 1932, and his birth seemed to countervail John Joyce’s death. Joyce wrote his most moving poem, “Ecce Puer,” that same day (Ellmann 646). While the first passage does not use Ellmann’s exact language, it does list the same ideas he proposes as the critical underpinning of the poem without citing his work. Since this interpretation is Ellmann’s distinct idea, this constitutes plagiarism.

He was the oldest child of John Stanislaus Joyce (from Cork) and Mary Jane (May) Murray, who bore her husband 12 children, 10 of whom survived. When Joyce was young, his father was successful, and for several years the family lived in Bray, a fashionable suburb of Dublin, and James was able to attend the prestigious Clongowes Wood College (just as his future protagonist Stephen Dedalus did).
