Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
James Joyce (1882-1941) is undoubtedly one of the masters of modern literature. His novel Ulysses is arguably the most significant and most influential piece of literature written in this century: 'the novel to end all novels'. Yet, Joyce has the reputation of being difficult, hermetic, arcane.
Assessment and permitted materials
Minimum requirements and assessment criteria
It is the aim of this course to make Joyce accessible and to explore the richness and originality of his work by an approach, which favours small, but increasingly steady steps, i.e. chapter-by-chapter analysis. It will also be necessary to consider Ulysses in relation to other works in the Joyce canon, to film adaptations, and most importantly, to relate it to the contexts of Irish life and Irish culture of the early 20th century.
Examination topics
class discussions of selected chapters, student presentations on selected topics.
