Could you please correct my intro for (quotation analysis)?
Does my introduction includes the necessery elements for short story analysis?

This quotation is taken from “Araby” which is the third short story of The Dubliners, a collection of fifteen stories, written by "James Joyce", a short story writer, novelist and poet. Who was born on February 2, 1882, in Dublin, Ireland. Throughout his work "Araby", where our extract taken from, Joyce used the first person narrative point of view and left the reader understand everything through the protagonist's eyes. He narrated the story with a bleak mood, and with a tone of depression and gloom. Joyce used countless numbers of literary elements in "Araby", but in our quotation here we can see how he cleverly utilized that two devices that are symbolism and irony, to strengthen the plot of the story. These devices did not only enhance the efficiency in this extract, but they were critical in the short story format. With limited space and time.

Answer

It's a good introductory paragraph.  A few notes from me to refine your work:
-James Joyce should not be in quotation marks.  
-When using quotation marks, do not put spaces between the " and the beginning or end of the word.  Example:  The poem entitled "Araby" was written by James Joyce.
-Also, when using quotation marks, punctuation goes inside.  example from your paragraph: Joyce used countless numbers of literary elements in "Araby," but...

Answer

This should be in your notebook for correction , not so much as to whether it has the elements/ prose  for a good review of a short story.
This write up is about “Araby”, which is the third short story of The Dubliners, a collection of fifteen stories, written by "James Joyce", a short story writer, novelist and poet.,who was born on February 2, 1882, in Dublin, Ireland. 
Throughout "Araby", as I have noticed, Joyce used the first person narrative point of view to let the reader  see everything through the protagonist's eyes.
 He narrated the story in a bleak mood and with a tone of depression and gloom.
Joyce utilised countless numbers of literary element in "Araby", and after reading it, we can see how he cleverly utilized these two devices : symbololism  and irony to strengthen the plot of the story.
These devices did not only enhance his story telling, but they were critical for a short story such as this .

Answer

"novelist and poet. Who was born"... "who" continues the previous sentence, so you either need to take the full stop out or swap it for a "He". 
"Where our extract IS taken from" (although this section isn't needed because you've already said the quotation came from here).
Consider using "which led the reader to understand" instead of "which left".
Try "the devices of" instead of "that two devices that are".
Hope it goes well, sounds interesting!

Answer

I'd say you got everything that you needed. You definitely put more detail into a paper than I would (I'm lazy). Your English word choice is also very intricate, which adds a nice flair to the paper and makes it interesting. I'd get a second opinion, but it looks fine.
