STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS IN ULYSSES BY JAMES JOYCE

Abstract

This article investigates the stream-of-consciousness narrative technique in James Joyce’s Ulysses. It explores Joyce’s use of this method to portray the inner thoughts of characters such as Leopold Bloom, Stephen Dedalus, and Molly Bloom. Through an analysis of key excerpts, the study highlights how Joyce reshapes storytelling by replicating the complexities of human consciousness. Furthermore, it situates Joyce’s innovation within the context of modernist literature and examines the broader impact of this technique on narrative form and character portrayal. The discussion is supported by critical analyses and scholarly references.
