When a schema is activated, the brain makes immediate assumptions about the person or object being observed.

Main Results:

  • A consistent and surprising lack of focus on mental illness and psychiatric facilities across Joyce's oeuvre.
  • The Grangegorman complex, a major institution, is conspicuously absent from his Dublin narratives.
  • This avoidance appears deliberate rather than incidental.

Conclusions:

  • James Joyce appears to have studiously avoided depicting mental illness and psychiatric institutions.
  • The reasons for this literary omission warrant further scholarly exploration.
  • This absence contrasts sharply with the significant presence of such institutions in Dublin society.
