(Leeds), Ph.D.(Essex), (born 11 February 1933) is a Joycean scholar, but in the first place, he is a linguist with twelve years' experience in the Department of Theoretical Linguistics of the University of Stockholm in the 1970s and 1980s, specializing in Discourse Analysis. In that capacity he read a dozen or so papers at various international congresses (see texts below).His education includes a B.A. degree (Bucharest), M.Phil. (Leeds) and Ph.D. (Essex). George Sandulescu has worked as a researcher at university level for 12 years in Romania (between 1957 and 1969), for 12 years in Sweden (from 1970 to 1982), and for 12 years in the Principality of Monaco (from 1984 to 1996). He taught at Bucharest University between 1962–1969. He has lived, worked, and conducted research and teaching in major institutions in Romania, Sweden, Great Britain, the United States and Italy.After the death in 1983 of Princess Grace of Monaco, he substantially assisted in founding the Monaco library bearing her name, and organised important International Conferences there devoted to James Joyce (1985 and 1990), William Butler Yeats (1987), Samuel Beckett (1991), and Oscar Wilde (1993). On the invitation of Prince Rainier III, and together with the British writer Anthony Burgess, also a resident of Monaco, George Sandulescu was one of the founders of the Princess Grace Irish Library of Monaco—the fundamental purpose of which was to publish literary criticism in two distinct series of publications, produced by Colin Smythe Ltd, of Gerrards Cross. More than 25 volumes were published in the period from 1985 to 1997; the programme had stopped by 2000.George Sandulescu attended most James Joyce Conventions, Conferences and get-togethers which took place in Europe (and some of them in the United States) between the years 1975 and 1990. (The same applied to both Theoretical and Practical Linguistics during the same period of time.)He stopped in 1990, after having organized the 12th James Joyce Symposium in the Principality of Monaco. It took him 15 years to realize that the mainstream Joyce research had somewhat gone out of focus, and the attitude towards Mr Stephen Joyce, the grandson, was unacceptable: it lacks a minimum of politeness towards the grandson – symbolically called STEPHEN ! – of the by far greatest, but poorest, writer of the world.As Director of the Princess Grace Irish Library between 1982 and 1996, George Sandulescu made a point of organizing World Congresses in Monaco, devoted to the four greatest Irish writers that ever existed: Wilde, Yeats, Joyce and Beckett. Both the Director Sandulescu, the Reigning Family, the Trustees of the Library, and the Principality as a whole invited the families of these four writers to actively participate in the event, as an essential point in the success and completeness of these manifestations (see Proceedings below).. }
