In this module, you will consider the various ways in which Joyce has
been construed as a writer and viewed alternatively as an avant-garde
modernist, international, European, or Irish author.
Concentrating on a close reading of a number of key episodes of Ulysses,
the different critical approaches to interpreting this text will be
considered including those drawing on historicist, materialist,
postcolonial and feminist theory.
You will consider the degree to which Ulysses problematises traditional
notions of character and plot.
You will examine Joyce's increasing use of radical style to disrupt our
presuppositions about narrative.
