Ulysses (novel)
''Ulysses'' is a modernist novel by Irish writer James Joyce. Parts of it were first serialized in the American journal ''The Little Review'' from March 1918 to December 1920, and the entire work was published in Paris by Sylvia Beach on 2 February 1922, Joyce's 40th birthday. It is considered one of the most important works of modernist literature and has been called "a demonstration and summation of the entire movement." According to Declan Kiberd, "Before Joyce, no writer of fiction had so foregrounded the process of thinking". ''Ulysses'' chronicles the appointments and encounters of the itinerant Leopold Bloom in Dublin in the course of an ordinary day, 16 June 1904. Ulysses is the Latinised name of Odysseus, the hero of Homer's epic poem the ''Odyssey'', and the novel establishes a series of parallels between the poem and the novel, with structural correspondences between the characters and experiences of Bloom and Odysseus, Molly Bloom and Penelope, and Stephen Dedalus ...

List Of Ulysses Characters
This is a list of characters from ''Ulysses'' by James Joyce. Principal characters * Leopold Bloom is a protagonist and hero in Joyce's ''Ulysses''. His peregrinations and encounters in Dublin on 16 June 1904 mirror, on a more mundane and intimate scale, those of Ulysses/Odysseus in Homer's epic poem the ''Odyssey''. The character was inspired by James Joyce's close friend, Aron Ettore Schmitz (Italo Svevo), author of ''Zeno's Conscience''. * Molly Bloom, the wife of main character Leopold Bloom, she roughly corresponds to Penelope in the Odyssey. The major difference between Molly and Penelope is that while Penelope is eternally faithful, Molly is not. * Stephen Dedalus is James Joyce's literary alter ego, appearing as the protagonist and antihero of his first, semi-autobiographical novel of artistic existence ''A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man'' and an important character in Joyce's ''Ulysses''. Stephen Dedalus appears in ''Ulysses'' as the character who corresponds to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Seven Brides For Seven Brothers
''Seven Brides for Seven Brothers'' is a 1954 American musical film, directed by Stanley Donen, with music by Gene de Paul, lyrics by Johnny Mercer, and choreography by Michael Kidd. The screenplay, by Albert Hackett, Frances Goodrich, and Dorothy Kingsley, is based on the short story "The Sobbin' Women", by Stephen Vincent Benét, which was based in turn on the ancient Roman legend of the Rape of the Sabine Women.

Film critic Stephanie Zacharek has called the barn-raising sequence in ''Seven Brides'' "one of the most rousing dance numbers ever put on screen." The film was photographed in Ansco Color in the CinemaScope format. ''Seven Brides for Seven Brothers'' won the Academy Award for Best Scoring of a Musical Picture and was nominated for four addition ...
