V.B.13.e.1

First Part of a Copy of the Typescript (with First Overlay) of the "Circe" (15) Episode


Material Description and Collation

The manuscript consists of 83 sheets of typing paper. All of the pages are doubled-spaced typewritten black ink bottom (carbon) copies, except pp. [4], [5], [7], [8], [11], [13]–[17], [35], [41], [50], [55] and [81], which are purple ribbon top (original) copies; all the versos are blank. There are corrections and additions in Joyce’s hand (and in a few instances in Sylvia Beach’s hand, presumably based on Joyce’s instructions) in black ink on all of the pages, except on pp. [23], [24], [28], [31], [42], [49], [51], [54], [56], [61], [62], [63], [70], [78], [80, [81] and [83], and in blue ink on pp. [5], [6], [7], [10] and [14]–[17].


Title

" Ulysses | II concluded" is typed in black ink ribbon in the center on p. [1].


Measurements

The sheets measure approximately 27.0 x 21.0 cm.


Pagination

Pages [2]–[83] were paginated "1"–"54", "54a", "55"–"78", "78a", "79" and "80" in the lower left margin in pencil. Pages [4]–[24] were also paginated "3"–"23 in the upper left margin in another hand in pencil.


Contents

The manuscript is a typescript of the "Circe" episode, comprised of mixed top and bottom copies of what were at least 4 complete typescripts (a top copy and 3 bottom copies), of which 3 partial, other copies survive (Buffalo MSS V.B.13.f–h). This part of the typescript was prepared directly from the Rosenbach manuscript (faircopy) version of the episode (see CSE 1884–1885). The typescript was revised by Joyce, who also made most of these same emendations on the corresponding pages of the other copies of the typescript. This copy of the typescript is continued on MS V.B.13.e.2. The text on the pages is as follows:
