excellent...
having read
ulysses
ages ago, after having read this book, i did not know how much i missed. great book.
Great book.... misleading title
This is certainly an excellent book, but it is not the
annotated
Ulysses
that you expect from the Pengiun or Oxford
edition
s. That is, the actual text of Ulysses is not in this book, only lengthy and fascinating information about Ulysses itself. So, I would recommend it, only the title is deliberately misleading. I thought I was getting an annotated version of Ulysses, not a book on annotations about another book called Ulysses.
Don Gifford's annotations to Joyce's great modern classic comprise a specialized encyclopedia that will inform any reading of
Ulysses
. The suggestive potential of minor details was enormously fascinating to Joyce, and the precision of his use of detail is a most important aspect of his literary method. The annotations in this volume illuminate details which are not in the public realm for most of us.
The annotations gloss place names, define slang terms, give capsule histories of institutions and political and cultural movements and figures, supply bits of local and Irish legend and lore, explain religious nomenclature and practices, trace literary allusions and references to other cultures. Annotations are keyed not only to the reading text of the critical
edition
of Ulysses, but to the standard 1961 Random House edition, and the current Modern Library and Vintage texts.
