Abstract
This chapter looks at the ways in which Joyce revised the text of Ulysses once the Little Review serialization had been stopped. It argues that there are seven types of Ulyssean revision and looks in detail at the revisions Joyce made to chapters 2 (‘Nestor’), 5 (‘Lotus-Eaters’), 11 (‘Sirens’), and 13 (‘Nausicaa’). The argument about post-serial revision involves looking at specificities of character, place, and time; streams of consciousness; schematic additions; stylistic thickening; sexual suggestiveness; the embellishment of micro-narrative; and the intensification of Hibernicism in speech. These key critical concepts are then applied to close reading of individual moments of revision.
