Molly Blooms: A Polylogue on "Penelope" and Cultural StudiesRichard Pearce This critical study of the character of Molly Bloom attempts to bring her from the margin to the centre of ""Ulysses"". 12 scholars examine ""Penelope"" from the points of view of cultural studies, feminism, new historicism, popular culture, postmodernism and postcolonialism. As a result, they produce a multiplicity of Molly Blooms and illuminate the many positions she occupies in Joyce's novel. |
