1st edn (1937).
'Ulysses' - unquestionably one of the greatest novels in the English language and the text most expressive of the psyche of modern man and woman - tells the sadly
comic story Leopold Bloom,a good man led by love,attempting to come to terms with
loss: the deaths of his son and of his father,the departure of his daughter from
home,the passing of his youth and the adultery of his wife.Joyce meticulously recreates the place and time - Dublin,16 June 1904 - in which Bloom,in the midst of
the vicissitudes of an otherwise nondescript day,contemplates the void of uncertainty where we all stand.
First published in Paris in 1922 by an amateur publisher,'Ulysses' as a text has
been dogged from the first by a string of bad,indifferent,or misguided 'definitive'
editions.Now at last,seventy-five years after its first publication (then 1997), Picador is proud to present a completely redesigned and comprehensively edited text
of James Joyce's masterpiece:a Ulysses for
our time.
Danis Rose's editing is informed by a radical new appraisal of the history of Joyce's writing of 'Ulysses' and of the
documents which constitute the manuscript of the book.By combining the better features of current theories of text- editing,previously assumed to be incompatible,he has removed a plethora of
small,yet not insignificant,obstructions
between writer and reader that have hitherto marred the enjoyment of this most
human and extraordinary of novels.
Danis Rose is one of the world's leading experts on James Joyce.He has written and edited some of the more important books and articles in the field.
