This essay provides the first depiction of Joyce's popularity in the over three hundred worldwide Wikipedias. Through a comprehensive analysis of readership data of all of the entries dedicated to his works—and his own life—I show where he is most popular, where his individual works are most consulted, and where, instead, there is little to no interest in his oeuvre. One of the significant results that emerges, in fact, is that Joyce is not a universally popular or canonical figure.

Abstract
This essay provides the first depiction of Joyce's popularity in the over three hundred worldwide Wikipedias. Through a comprehensive analysis of readership data of all of the entries dedicated to his works—and his own life—I show where he is most popular, where his individual works are most consulted, and where, instead, there is little to no interest in his oeuvre. One of the significant results that emerges, in fact, is that Joyce is not a universally popular or canonical figure.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
