David Hayman presents this documentary about Scottish poet Robert
Burns. Hayman explores Burns' life from his childhood to his rise
to fame throughout the nation while a team of experts use forensic
technology to create a model of the writer's head to show, with as
much accuracy as possible, what he would have really looked like.
This book contains eighteen original essays by leading Joyce
scholars on the eighteen separate chapters of "Ulysses." It
attempts to explore the richness of Joyce's extraordinary novel
more fully than could be done by any single scholar. Joyce's habit
of using, when writing each chapter in "Ulysses, " a particular
style, tone, point of view, and narrative structure gives each
contributor a special set of problems with which to engage,
problems which coincide in every case with certain of his special
interests. The essays in this volume complement and illuminate one
another to provide the most comprehensive account yet published of
Joyce's many-sided masterpiece.
All 27 episodes from seasons 1-3 of the BBC's comedy series set in

'The Killing Season', 'You Can't Make an Omelette Without Breaking
Legs', 'Turning Out the Light', 'The Edge', 'The Shallow End', 'A
Cold Heart', 'The Comfort of Strangers', 'Bad Blood', 'Factor 8',
'The Critical Hour', 'Running on Vapours', 'The Betrayed', 'The
Body Electric', 'Open and Shut', 'The Practise of Privacy', 'The
Red Queen', 'Trench Warfare', 'Suffer Little Children', 'The Glass

Part'.
Since its original publication in 1970, Ulysses: the Mechanics of
Meaning has become one of the most talked about, cited, and
respected of commentaries on Joyce's classic work. Its compact
format and its crisp, lucid style make David Hayman's book an
essential one for all new readers of Ulysses. For this new edition
Hayman has added a convenient chapter-by-chapter account of the
action and a substantial afterword extending and amplifying ideas
presented in the original edition and briefly summarizing the
current critical scene. This makes the book of additional value
both to sudents and to the many Joyce scholars who have long
depended on the Prentice-Hall edition, now out of print.
