摘　　要：In Araby, Joyce's well written style is exemplified, as well as his deep thoughts. From the perspective of literary devices, Joyce employs"impressionism"and"epiphany"which are special artistic devices he has applied in this story. The author discusses the plot, setting in Araby, and analyzes the characters in it. Through a thorough study of Araby, the thesis is in order to push forward the understanding of Joyce's purpose in writing the story. The discussion of impressionism and epiphany in this thesis is an attempt to focus the discussion on the story alone, combing the inner unity and integrity of this device, providing better understanding of the functions and management of such new innovations, thus a better understanding of the work itself.In Araby, Joyce's well written style is exemplified, as well as his deep thoughts.
