The Ulysses reading group at the Rosenbach is a fun and painless way to read (and finish!) James Joyce’s masterpiece. Led by Dr. Paul Saint-Amour, Professor of English at the University of Pennsylvania, the course incorporates a chapter-by-chapter discussion of the text, with detours into Joyce’s personal life and artistic method. The course meets once a month beginning in October 2009 and goes through June 2010, culminating just in time for Bloomsday (June 16).

This reading group was offered October 2009-June 2010

Exile Among Expats: James Joyce in Paris

Wednesday, February 23, 2011 - Sunday, August 28, 2011
