This forthcoming edition from Cambridge University Press helps readers understand the pleasures of this monumental work and to grapple with its challenges. Copiously equipped with maps, photographs, and footnotes, it provides a vivid and illuminating context for the experiences of Leopold Bloom, Stephen Dedalus, and Molly Bloom, as well as Joyce’s many other Dublin characters, on June 16, 1904. Featuring a facsimile of the historic 1922 Shakespeare and Company text, this edition also provides Joyce’s own errata as well as references to amendments in later editions. Each of the eighteen chapters of Ulysses is introduced by a leading Joyce scholar. These essays discuss the novel’s plot and allusions, as well as crucial questions that have puzzled readers over the last hundred years.
