Abstract
|
|
|
|
| Taking wing from Joyces reading of Havelock Elliss Studies in the Psychology of Sex, in which the Irish writer found an account of cross-species sexual contact, this essay explores Leopold Blooms animal metamorphosis in the Circe episode of Ulysses. It argues that this encounter with the nonhuman animal is subordinated to the cause of working through barriers of human difference. In the process, the animal that enables this reconciliation disappears. Unable to represent animal interiority, Circe settles for merely probing their interiors. |
