The Little Review "Ulysses"

James Joyce’s Ulysses first appeared in print in the pages of an American avant-garde magazine, The Little Review, between 1918 and 1920. The novel many consider to be the most important literary work of the twentieth century was, at the time, deemed obscene and scandalous, resulting in the eventual seizure of The Little Review and the placing of a legal ban on Joyce’s masterwork that would not be lifted in the United States until 1933. For the first time, The Little Review “Ulysses” brings together the serial installments of Ulysses to create a new edition of the novel, enabling teachers, students, scholars, and general readers to see how one of the previous century’s most daring and influential prose narratives evolved, and how it was initially introduced to an audience who recognized its radical potential to transform Western literature. This unique and essential publication also includes essays and illustrations designed to help readers understand the rich contexts in which Ulysses first appeared and trace the complex changes Joyce introduced after it was banned.
Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of all time Considered the greatest 20th century novel written in English, in this edition Walter Gabler uncovers previously unseen text. It is a disillusioned study of estrangement, paralysis and the disintegration of society.
First published in 1993. The seminal invention for James Joyce's A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man was the narrative essay A Portrait of the Artist’. This reprinting also includes an introduction of its origin to publication in 1914 as a serialised narrative in ‘The Egoist’ journal.

HEILIGE & SÜNDER, Teil 1: auf diesem Fels...: Von der Berufung des Apostels Petrus, "auf diesem Fels will ich meine Kirche bauen", bis zum Tod von Leo dem Großen reicht das erste Kapitel der Papstgeschichte. Wie wird aus einer verfolgten kleinen Glaubensgemeinschaft die Staatsreligion des Römischen Reiches? Die Päpste: Petrus, Linus, Clemens I., Victor I., Sixtus II., Damasus I., Leo I. der Große. zwischen zwei Reichen: In der Zeit zwischen der Abdankung des letzten weströmischen Kaisers im Jahr 476 und der Krönung Karl des Großen in Rom im Jahr 800 hatte die Kirche zahlreiche Angriffe von innen und außen zu bestehen. Die Päpste: Gelasius I., Hormisdas, Gregor I. der Große, Martin I., Gregor II., Zacharias, Stephan II., Leo III., Johannes VIII., Formosus, Stephan VI., Leo V., Sergius III., Johannes X., Johannes XI, Stephan VIII., Johannes XII. Heilige & Sünder, Teil 2: der Kirchenstaat: Die Verweltlichung der Kirche erreicht einen neuen Höhepunkt: Simonie, der Kauf von Ämtern und Ordinaten, Prunksucht und Hurerei geben den Ton an. Die Reformkirche unter deutschen Päpsten soll einen neuen Weg finden. Es kommt zum endgültigen Bruch zwischen der Römischen Kirche und Konstantinopel. Die Päpste: Clemens II., Damasus II., Leo IX., Victor II., Gregor VII., Urban II., Hadrian IV., Innocenz III., Bonifaz VIII., Clemens V., Johannes XXII., Benedikt XII., Clemens VI., Gregor XI., Urban VI., Clemens VII., Alexander V., Martin V.. Aufruhr und Zerfall: Mit der Renaissance entstehen Rom und die katholische Kirche in neuer Herrlichkeit. Diese hatte aber auch ihre Schattenseiten: Dekadenz, Korruption und Verschwendungssucht zeichnen die Kirche aus. Unmut wird laut. Luthers 95 Thesen begründen die protestantische Reformation in Deutschland. Die Päpste: Nikolaus V., Alexander VI., Julius II., Leo X., Clemens VII., Paul III., Paul IV., Sixtus V., Urban VII., Innocenz X., Clemens XIV.. Heilige & Sünder, Teil 3: der Hirte und die Herde: In der Zeit der Aufklärung werden die Vorrechte der Kirche weiter beschnitten, sie wird Teil des Staatsapparates. In Folge der Französischen Revolution kommt es zur Konstitutionalisierung der Kirche. Priester, die sich weigern, einen Eid auf die Staatsverfassung abzulegen, werden kurzerhand geköpft. Die Päpste: Pius VI., Pius VII., Leo XII., Gregor XVI., Pius IX., Leo XIII. der Papst - die Stimme Gottes? Zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts scheint das Papsttum erneut am Ende. Der Papst ist ein Herrscher ohne Land, ein Gefangener im Vatikan. Unter Pius X. wird 1910 der Antimodernisteneid verabschiedet. Sein Nachfolger Benedikt XV. hält im Ersten Weltkrieg strikte Neutralität. Pius XI. schließt Konkordate mit Mussolini und Hitler. Die Päpste: Pius X., Benedikt XV., Pius XI., Pius XII., Johannes XXIII., Paul VI., Johannes Paul I., Johannes Paul II. Benedikt XVI. - unser Papst: Als am Dienstag, den 19. April 2005, kurz vor 18 Uhr der Rauch aus dem Kamin der Sixtinischen Kapelle aufsteigt, herrscht gespannte Erwartung auf dem Petersplatz. Dann verkünden die Glocken des Petersdoms: "Habemus Papam" - wir haben einen Papst! Die unüberschaubare Menge von Gläubigen bricht in Jubel aus: Das neue Oberhaupt der katholischen Kirche ist Benedikt XVI, der frühere Kardinal Joseph Ratzinger. Mit ihm wird zum ersten Mal seit 482 Jahren ein Deutscher Oberhaupt der katholischen Kirche. Die faszinierende Dokumentation der RAI fasst eindringlich und in teilweise bisher unveröffentlichten Bildern (u. a. aus dem Konklave in der Sixtinischen Kapelle) die bewegendsten Momente jener Wochen zusammen, in denen die Welt Abschied nahm von Papst Johannes Paul II. Benedikt XVI. zu dessen Nachfolger gewählt wurde. Ergänzt wird die Dokumentation durch Auszüge aus Predigten und Interviews mit dem früheren Kardinal Joseph Ratzinger, der bereits 1981 von Johannes Paul II. zum Präfekten der Katholischen Glaubenskongregation ernannt wurde und bei seiner Amtseinführung betonte "Die Kirche lebt, die Kirche ist jung!"
