James Joyce and the Burden of Disease

Traces James Joyce's medical history to show that many of his symptoms match those of tabes dorsalis, a form of neurosyphilis which, untreated, eventually leads to paralysis. Combining literary analysis and medical detection, Kathleen Ferris builds a convincing case that this dread disease is the subject of much of Joyce's autobiographical writing.
