“Force, hatred, history, all that.
That's not life for men and women, insult and hatred.
And everybody knows that it's the very opposite of that that is really life.
--What? says Alf.
--Love, says Bloom. I mean the opposite of hatred.”

Happy #Bloomsday to all who celebrate James Joyce's modernist novel Ulysses, which takes place in and around Dublin all on one day: June 16, 1904.

Today is #BloomsDay, the annual celebration of James Joyce, observed on the day (16 June) his 1922 novel #Ulysses takes place in 1904.

Among Joyce's many influences were the Irish Franciscan thinkers of the 17th century https://www.irishphilosophy.com/2015/06/16/joyce-franciscans/

His most extensive philosophical exploration in Ulysses is of Berkeley's theory of vision (Episode 3: Proteus) https://www.irishphilosophy.com/2016/06/16/veil-of-the-temple/

Yom Bloom Sameach to all those who celebrate.

Because I enjoy being ridiculously literal, I got flowers for #Bloomsday. Also poked into my copy of Ulysses (bought in 1999 but I'd already read it 2x via a copy borrowed from my uni library by then) during my lunchtime #Today.

Does this qualify for #bloomscrolling ?

TGI Fenster Freitag. Two tiny windows in a Martello Tower in Howth. So I guess it’s a bit of a Bloomsday toot too; although it’s a Martello Tower on my side of the city and not Buck Mulligan’s one on the Southside. #FensterFreitag #WindowFriday #FuinneogFriday #Bloomsday2023 #JamesJoyce #Howth #MartelloTower #Window #Ulysses #Dublin #Ireland #Mastodaoine

After dinner, Joyce and his protege, Samuel Beckett, “get pretty tight,” Norris says. On the way home, frustrated by the frequency of requests, Joyce and Beckett are making for pit stops, the carriage driver decides not to wait for Joyce’s drinking buddy to return from the pissoir, and leaves Beckett “ingloriously abandoned on the outskirts of Paris”.
