Guillemette Bolens, « Création, remémoration et invention d’une antériorité dans l’Iliade, l’Edda de Snorri Sturluson et Ulysses de James Joyce », Presses Sorbonne Nouvelle, ID : 10670/1.lso0qa
A similar concept of memory is perceptible in the Iliad, Snorri Sturluson’s Edda, and James Joyce’s Ulysses. On the one hand, the paradoxical question of the anteriority of Genesis is posed. On the other hand, the texts are organized so as to indicate that the anteriority of Genesis is created via textuality. The way in which memory’s object is produced by textuality is, however, expressed differently in the three works. In the Iliad and the Edda, morphological aspects inform the narrated cosmogony, whereas Joyce uses in Ulysses the medieval literary technique of interlace, based on the repetition of signifiers.
