Ellmann was born in Highland Park, Michigan, in 1918. He studied at Yale and at Trinity College in Dublin. He taught at Harvard, Yale, Northwestern, Emory, the University of Chicago, Indiana University, and Oxford, where he was Goldsmiths' Professor of English Literature and Fellow of New College. His James Joyce (National Book Award, 1959) was preceded by Yeats: The Man and the Masks and The Identity of Yeats , and was followed by--among other greatly praised books--two volumes of Joyce letters, Eminent Domain , and Four Dubliners . Ellmann died in May 1987, in Oxford, soon after completing Oscar Wilde , to which he had devoted some two decades of study, research, and writing. |
