乔伊斯的作品《尤利西斯》是一个变形的神话,作家有意识地将《奥德修纪》作为小说的神话原型,作品的情节所象征的现代的生存状况与原始的生存状况进行对比。神话史诗不仅为小说提供了一个类比框架,重要的是作者借用荷马史诗原型隐喻和象征意义,表达了一个现代人寻找失落的自我以及重建自我价值的过程,并使之升华为一篇代表人类寻求精神出路的宣言。 Joyce’s Ulysses is a myth of metamorphosis. The writer consciously compared “Odyssey” as the mythological prototype of the novel and the modern living condition symbolized by the plot of his work against the original living conditions .
