Seminar: ‘Serial Encounters: Ulysses and the Little Review’ by Dr Clare Hutton (Loughborough University)

Why and when was Joyce’s Ulysses first deemed controversial and how did Joyce respond? This paper, based on Dr Hutton’s OUP monograph, looks at the circumstances in which Joyce’s work was first serialised in the US, and the nature of the post-serial revisions which Joyce made to the text.

Dr Clare Hutton is Senior Lecturer in English at Loughborough University, and author of Serial Encounters: Ulysses and the Little Review (OUP, 2019) and editor of The Irish Book in English, 1891-2000 (OUP, 2011). She is currently Visiting Fellow at TCD’s Long Room Hub, and is working on a new trade book, Women and the Making of Ulysses.
