AA 143. keywords: Literary Criticism Joyce Ireland Literature. DESCRIPTION - Ulysses is the Homeric hero who has most fascinated imaginative writers of all ages. His character has been reinterpreted and redefined so often that a complex mythopoeic tradition has developed around his name. W. B. Stanford surveys the literature of this tradition, emphasizing the major contributions of such writers as Virgil, Dante, Shakespeare, Tennyson, Joyce, and Kazantzakis. He finds in the main trends of this literature a distinction between Ulysses the statesman and Ulysses the wanderer. Making use of the ambiguities in the character of the Homeric prototype, authors have port rayed Ulysses the statesman as either clever and persuasive or wily and deceitful. Ulysses the wanderer has been cast as the adventurer, moving away from home, or as the unhappy exile, moving always toward home and family. This two-sided hero has been reintegrated only in the modern epics of Joyce and Kazantzakis, in which Ulysses once again becomes a comprehensive character, a contemporary Everyman. 'Stanford's book. is enormously informative, a necessary foundation for any future study of Odysseus-Ulysses. the author has outlined and annotated [his material] with exceptional lucidity, learning, charm, and unfailing good sense. .' - Richmond Lattimore. inventory #40947.
