|a Henry James at the end of the last century revolutionized the history of the novel when he suggested that the critics focus their attention on technique rather than on content. Since that time others such as Percy Lubbock, Robert Humphrey, Mark Shorer, and Northrup Frye have furthered the ideas initiated by James insisting that a work of fiction be considered an art piece and that it be judged in that light. These men maintained that it is the technique selected and perfected by the author that allows him to develop his subject matter and that the final piece will be only as good as the author’s ability to use his technique skillfully. In other words, it is the artistic way of developing the subject matter that will ultimately produce a superior or inferior work of fiction. The final achievement of the art piece will be determined by the author’s efficient and exact manipulation of his technique. James Joyce, following this trend of thought, wrote his novel Ulysses confident that the perfection of his creation would depend solely on the perfection of his technique. Through the skillful handling of his chosen manner of writing, he produced a work that has survived some forty years of severe criticism. His name and work have not only survived but have continued to accumulate greater renown and recognition with time. The following paper is a study of some of the techniques that Joyce used in the writing of his novel. It was begun at the University of Detroit under the direction of Doctor Clyde P. Craine, Vice Chairman of the Department of English, during the summer of lp62 as a part of a seminar whose aim it was to determine the point of view maintained in a number of novels. The survey included a selection of works beginning with Laurence Stern’s Tristram Shandy and terminating with William Faulkner’s The Sound and the Fury. The role that Joyce*s Ulysses assumed in the history of the development of the modern novel was much in evidence as the work of the summer progressed. No single author seemed to have endeavored so conscientiously to produce such an objective work of fiction, nor had any one author accomplished such a perfect piece of art. At the end of the study it was suggested that the paper on James Joyce be further developed* the following is the extension of that summer’s work. |
