Summary: This series of twenty-four thirty-minute lectures examines James Joyce's landmark novel Ulysses in great detail. "After considering the controversies it provoked when it first appeared and the reasons for which it has come to be known as a major contribution to twentieth-century literature, the lectures will show how Joyce's novel recalls and at the same time radically reconstructs the adventures of Ulysses, the protagonist of Homer's ancient epic called The Odyssey."
