AUTHOR

Brannon, Julie Sloan

SUMMARY

A book that is at once obscure and brilliant, Ulysses was declared the most important book of the twentieth century. It has also been the center of controversy off and on for over 75 years, most recently as the object of what was dubbed 'The Joyce Wars' in the late nineteen-eighties: the controversy over Hans Walter Gabler's Ulysses: The Corrected Text . The author examines the Joyce Wars as a fascinating nexus of the conflicts between scholars and ordinary readers, and one that illuminates the existence of Ulysses - and by extension, Joyce - as an example of of Lyotard's differend , an icon that exists simultaneously in two separate yet contradictory discourses, each of which silences the other. The academic Joyce is radically different from the Public Joyce, and yet neither could exist without the other.Brannon, Julie Sloan is the author of 'Who Reads Ulysses? The Rhetoric of the Joyce Wars and the Common Reader', published 2003 under ISBN 9780415942065 and ISBN 0415942063.
