Contents

The manuscript is another partial 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.e, 13.g and 13.h. This typescript was prepared directly from the Rosenbach manuscript (faircopy) version of the episode (see CSE 1884–1885). Joyce made an initial round of corrections and addition to all the copies of the typescripts (MSS V.B.13.e–h), but also made a second round of emendations only on the printers’ copy of the typescript (MS V.B.13.h). The text on the pages is as follows:

Dating

The majority of the typescript was prepared from January to early February 1921 by Raymonde Linossier in Paris, the final sheet by Mrs. Harrison shortly after that, and both were revised by Joyce beginning in February 1921 for Ulysses .
