《都柏林人》（Dubliners）是愛爾蘭文學巨擘詹姆斯・喬伊斯（James Joyce）於1914年出版的短篇小說集。由十五則作品組成，描繪20世紀初都柏林市民的日常生活與精神困境。從童年的純真與幻滅，到青春的迷惘、中年的麻木與老年的孤寂，喬伊斯以冷靜、寫實的筆觸，呈現一座城市的靈魂浮生像。
書中的人物多為平凡市民，在愛情、家庭、宗教、政治與夢想中掙扎，卻往往陷入停滯與無力的死胡同，最具代表性的篇章〈死者〉，以精緻的文學手法展現愛與失落、生命與死亡之間的幽微情感。
語言簡潔內斂，敘事深沉克制，展現喬伊斯對人性與社會的深刻觀察。這部作品不僅是愛爾蘭當代文學的經典，更為現代主義文學鋪路，為讀者走進喬伊斯世界的入門之作。
Dubliners was James Joyce's first major work. Set against the background of Dublin at the turn of the century, he describes, in a frank, realistic style, incidents in the lives of ordinary men and women, made extraordinary by the eye of his genius. The stories deal progressively with youth, adolescence, young adulthood and maturity. Continuity is provided by the themes of repression, entrapment and revolt. But the unique wit of the Irish also bubbles frequently to the surface, relished and splendidly displayed.
