作品紹介・あらすじ

This companion volume to James Joyce's "Ulysses" offers students an avenue into the novel and at the same time introduces them to five important contemporary critical approaches: deconstruction by Jacques Derrida; reader response criticism by Wolfgang User; feminist and gender criticism by Vicki Mahaffey; psychoanalytic criticism by Kimberly J. Devlin; and Marxist criticism by Patrick McGee. Each critical essay is accompanied by an introduction to the history, principles and practice of the critical perspective and by a bibliography that promotes further exploration of that approach. In addition, the essays are complemented by an introduction providing biographical and historical contexts for Joyce and "Ulysses", a survey of critical responses to the work since its initial publication, and a glossary of critical and theoretical terms.
