COURSE DESCRIPTION
On the basis of a close reading of James Joyce's Ulysses, the two-semester course will deal with the modernist novel as the genre key to modernist linguistic and formal experimentation. Joyce's formal innovations (such as the mythological method, interior monologue, stream of consciousness, flashback, flash-forward, montage, discursive collage, will serve as the basis for our consideration of how modernism revolutionised the novel genre and how Joyce's “revolution of the word” impacted upon the fiction of both his own time and the following periods.
