Episode 10, Wandering Rocks

there's a lot we still don't understand about this chapter.

joyce went to enormous lengths to make the 4D spacetime interrelationships counterintuitive, so odds are he hid a reward for whoever goes the extra mile. (until you feel the links in your belly you're still a dabbler)

by Lessing's principle of 'nacheinander' we need the action to be 'visible and progressive, its different parts occurring one after the other in a sequence of time'

but the startingtimes of the 19 subsections are wildly out-of-sequence (6 1 9 5 7 3 2 19 18 4 11 12 16 8 14 15 13 10 17):

6AA     9TL    7MD   2CK    18PD   11DD    16BM    14Si    13SD  17TF

   (33)    (43)         43/4(44)   (43)    (43) (42)   (43) 33   (44)

the 2-digit links above are to pagenumbers between 210 and 244

parentheses mean a character appears in another section before or after their own section

the earliest start is probably section 6, with Artifoni and Stephen talking as the band arrives at Trinity for a 3pm event.
then three pages of Conmee before the cluster Lenehan- Boylan- Dunne- Dignam.
then sailor- Corny- cavalcade, and KateyBoody- Dilly- Kernan.
then Mulligan- Lambert- Simon- Cunningham- Stephen, and the outsiders Bloom- Farrell. (Artifoni-6, Miss Dunne-7, Corny-2 and the Dedalus girls at 4 are also outsiders of different sorts, with very limited positioning info)

supposedly he analysed this maze-game for strategies to deceive-- could he have been mapping 'left/right' onto 'before/after'?

Stephen's path is apparently still utterly mysterious.  It seems critical to know where the tide had reached: at low tide vast areas are walkable [pic] [debate]

I suspect there's still a layer of deep meaning in Proteus we need to come to terms with, maybe explaining how Joyce found esthetic certainty in Aquinas?

Ellmann [Apr 1904]: "His next venture was as a schoolteacher. There was a temporary vacancy for a gentleman usher at the Clifton School, Dalkey, a private school founded a few years before at Summerfield Lodge, once the residence of the minor poet Denis Florence McCarthy whose name keeps coming up in Finnegans Wake. The founder and headmaster was an Ulster Scot, very pro-British, named Francis Irwin, a Trinity College graduate. Joyce devotes the second chapter of Ulysses to describing Stephen's activities at a school clearly modeled on Irwin's. As usual, his account is tenacious of remembered facts. The students whom Stephen teaches are based in part at least on actual ones: Armstrong, for example, is described as living on Vico Road, with a brother in the Navy, and eating figrolls; and Joyce appears to be blending Cecil Wright, the figroll-eater, with Clifford Ferguson, who suits the rest of the description. Irwin is presented under the name of Deasy, oddly inappropriate for an Ulster Scot, and his personality is merged with that of an Ulsterman Joyce knew in Trieste, Henry Blackwood Price, who had Deasy's preoccupation with a distinguished Ulster ancestry and shared his interest in the hoof-and-mouth disease. Joyce represents Deasy as a grass widower, although Price was happily married and Irwin was a bachelor who lived with a sister, but in other respects treats him indulgently, sparing, for example, any mention of his red nose, or of the shutting-down of the school soon after because of Irwin's alcoholism. Joyce can have taught there only a few weeks." [if at all]

distance from Tower, 23min walk
(could he have hopped a tram?)

distance from McKernans (JAJ that spring), 8 miles, 2.5hr walk (½ hr via tram?)

Francis Irwin [1901 census]
Clifford Ferguson and Cecil Wright (above) turned 15 in 1904 (so Deasy's boys might also be as old as 14, which fits much better with lessons like memorising Milton! SD may have only a few inches and a couple of stone on them. their voices will have changed.)

they sit on backless benches
there's no sign of any other classes
Dalkey had about 19 boys total, aged 14, but ¾ of these were Catholic

chapter readings: youtube, ditto,

movie

How old are the boys? What classes did SD handle, when? Is Deasy the only other teacher? Are the boys all the same age? Do they all walk to school? Why is his lesson so short and unfocused?

Bloomsday: resources (it's probably coincidence that U begins at the moment of moonrise)


Joyce called this the Hamlet episode, opening atop a tower, with SD as Hamlet.

BM is a mocker of all, tempting SD to compromise his esthetic ideals and take life less seriously.
Haines is a test case for this conflict, whom BM 'plays' but SD alienates by truthtelling.
The milkwoman may anticipate Bloom, making the best of her low status.
