Not only do the economic circumstances of the characters form a significant part of the novel's realistic subject matter but the relationships between characters are also based upon modes of economic exchange. Moreover, the narrative itself is filled with economic terms that serve as tropes for its themes, events, and techniques. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSome of the subjects and topics covered include Joyce's own \"spendthrift\" background, gift exchanges and reciprocity as a fundamental means of reader\/author relationship in the novel, money and language, Bloom as an \"economic man,\" the \"narrative economy\" of \"Wandering Rocks,\" the relationship between commerce and eroticism, the function of sacrifice in the creation of value, counterfeiting, forgery, and other crimes of writing, and a demonstration of how the encounter between Stephen and Bloom \"makes both ends meet.\" The book brings together not only the opposed economic impulses in Joyce but also the conflicting strains of regulation and excess in the novel's structural economy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-515167\"\u003eMark Osteen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Syracuse University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 484\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.29lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.21d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780815626619\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0815626614\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-LIT\"\u003eLiterary Criticism\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-LIT004120\"\u003eEnglish, Irish, Scottish, Welsh\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMark Osteen\u003c\/b\u003e is an associate professor of English at Loyola College in Maryland and has published a number of articles on Joyce and twentieth-century literature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Syracuse University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44581118116077,"sku":"9780815626619","price":37.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_d3386d08-e49c-4e03-a4ec-5b92c8c7bb39.jpg?v=1702083635","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/the-economy-of-ulysses-making-both-ends-meet-9780815626619","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
