Assignments 3 - Criticism & Culture/Modernism

[changeling67]

Well, these two are the choices that have been made for Assignments 3.  As I have to do a PP on the first novel, I thought I might as well do it as an essay too - really hope they don't expect me to compare it to another novel, because I am fresh out of ideas on that one.  I went to Dr Min's fantastic lecture today and she enthused about Ulyssess - which is infectious.  I also read the following article.

'I read James Joyce's Ulysses in a week'

If I accept the challenge (and from what I can tell, even one former lecturer leaffed through the first, middle and last chapters to see what the fuss was about), then I only need to read Ulysses and I don't have to compare/contrast.  3,000 x 2.

*sigh*

i think once you dive into Ulysees it'll start to make sense and you might even enjoy it, I did.

I think I will too - I worry about the time factor, but I am optimistic about it.

It is one of those books i read many many years ago. It really is good once you have dived into it. Might be worth digging out my old dog eared copy again.

One of the lecturers enthused so much about it, it has inspired me to do it. Not sure if I will feel like that when I am in the midst of it, mind :-)
