ABSTRACT

Joyce's innovative experimentation in Ulysses has brought him into line with such important writers of the Modernist Movement as Ezra Pound, Virginia Woolf and D. H. Lawrence. As a modernist writer, James Joyce was greatly influenced by the Symbolist writing techniques. By probing into his use of metaphors, one of the Symbolist techniques in Ulysses, the readers may have a better understanding of the connotations and implied meanings created by James Joyce.
