• Epic Geography
James Joyce's
Ulysses
Michael A. Seidel
"This book deserves careful attention as a wholly new departure. Com–
mentators have used Dublin maps before, but never have they compared
them with the Odysseus map derived from Berard. That the dangerous di–
rection is north-west in both works is an observation that proves to unlock a
wholly new sequence of insights.

represents a mode of human knowing, one used to probe wishes and
dreams and to reshape the world in which we live. $12.50

dence. $13.50
