Chapter 33 Chapter Seventeen 1

Which route did Bloom and Stephen take side by side on the way home? They all walked at normal walking speed from Beresford Square to the west end of Mountjoy Square in the order of lower and middle Gardner Street.Then slow down and turn left, casually coming to the end of Gardner Square, the intersection leading north to Temple Street.Then turn right, stopping now and then, and walk slowly north along Temple Street until you reach Hardwick Street[1].They approached the circular square in front of St. George's Church with leisurely steps, and then went straight through.In other words, the chords of any circle are shorter than the arcs.

Along the way, what exactly did the two giants discuss? Music, literature, Ireland, Dublin, Paris, friendship, women, prostitution, nutrition, the effect of gas, arc, and incandescent light on the growth of nearby sheltered trees[2] Covered dustbins, Roman Catholic Church, celibacy of the clergy, Irish nationals, Jesuit education, professions, medical studies, this day just passed, the Sabbath[3] the ominous atmosphere of the day before, Stephen's fainting incident . Did Bloom find similar commonalities in the similarities and differences in their respective responses to experience? Both are sensitive to artistic impressions, more so to musical impressions than to plastic or pictorial arts.Both had a preference for the continental way of life over the island country, and both preferred to live on this side of the Atlantic rather than across the Atlantic.The stubborn resistance to paganism brought about by their early family education and blood made the two of them stubborn and suspicious of many orthodox teachings such as religion, country, society, and ethics.Both believe that attraction to the opposite sex has a reciprocal stimulating and inhibiting effect.

What do they disagree about? Stephen made no secret of his disagreement with Bloom about the importance of nutrition and civic self-help; Bloom secretly disapproved of Stephen's notion that the human spirit was eternally affirmed through literature.Bloom quietly agrees with Stephen's erroneous dating of the period when the Irish nationals renounced their faith in the Druids and converted to Christianity.The year AD 432, when Pope Celestine I sent Patrick (son of Potitus, son of Odysseus) under King Learlie, should be corrected to Cormac McAlter ( AD 266), while Cormac choked to death at Slaty on getting stuck in food, and was buried at Rosnally.Bloom secretly agrees with Stephen's argument.Bloom attributed Stephen's fainting to the empty stomach and compounds of varying amounts of water and alcohol.This is caused by the intense movement that begins with mental tension, and then rotates rapidly in a relaxed atmosphere.Stephen attributed it to the reappearance of the morning cloud, which was not as big as a woman's palm at first (the two of them had witnessed that cloud from different locations-the dunes and Dublin)[5].

Did the two of them hold the same negative opinion on a certain point? In the effect of the light of a gas-lamp or an electric lamp on the growth of those sheltering trees in the vicinity. Had Bloom discussed the same issues in the past on his nocturnal loitering? In 1884 he walked and talked at night with Irving Goldberg[6] and Cecil Turnbull along these avenues: from Longwood Street to the corner of Leonard Street, and from Leonard Street corner to Singer Street, then Singer Street to Bloomfield Avenue.One evening in 1885, he and Percy Applejohn leaned against the wall between Gibraltar House and Bloomfield House in Crumlin, Uppercross, and talked several times.In 1886, he met with casual acquaintances and potential customers

1034 talked on doorsteps, in the front parlour, and in third-class carriages on suburban railway lines.In 1888 he spoke frequently with Brian Tweedy, the drummer, and his daughter, Miss Marion Tweedy, sometimes with them and sometimes with one of them alone, at Roundtown. In the rec room of Matthew Dillon's home.Once in 1892 with Julius Mastiansky[8] and again in 1893, both in the drawing room of my own house in West Lombard Street (Bloom). On the irregular succession of 1884, 1885, 1886, 1888, 1892, 1893, 1904, before reaching their destination, What reflections did Bloom have? He reflected that the more the scope of personal growth and experience accumulation continues to expand, the accompanying must be the regressive phenomenon of narrowing the scope of communication between individuals.

For example in what areas? From non-existence to existence.He appeared before many people and was accepted as a being.He is to any being as any being is to any being, in relation to being to being.He is about to disappear from being into non-existence, and thus be regarded by all as non-existent. What did Bloom do after they reached their destination[9]? At the odd-numbered fourth, on the steps of No. 7 Eccles Street, he mechanically reached into the back pocket of his trousers for his latch key. is there? The key was in the same pocket of the trousers he had worn just a day earlier. Why is he doubly annoyed?

Because he forgot, and he remembered reminding himself twice: don't forget. So what choice do these two people (respectively) face without their keys on purpose or carelessly? To go in or not to go in.To knock or not to knock [10]. How did Bloom decide? a strategy.He put his feet up the low wall, stepped over the railing of the open space in front of the basement, put his hat tightly on his head, touched the lower two lattices of the railing, and slowly moved his five-foot-nine-and-a-half-inch body and fell to within two feet and ten inches of the ground.Then let go of the hand holding the fence and let the body swing freely in the air.He also curled up to soften the impact of the fall.

Did he fall? He fell with a constant balance of eleven stone and six pounds.He used an automatic scale with graduated scales for regular weight measurements in the shop of pharmacist Francis Frodman at 19 Frederick Street North.The date is the last festival of Jesus' ascension[11], which is the 12th day of the fifth month in 1904 AD (5664 AD in the Jewish calendar and 1322 AD in the Islamic calendar) in the leap year.Golden number [12] five, intercalary remainder [13] thirteen, solar cycle [14] nine, Sunday letter [15] CB, Roman fifteen year calendar [16] two, Julian cycle [17] six six one seven Year, MCMIV [18].

Did he get up without the concussion? He regained his stable balance, and despite being concussed by the violent impact, he stood up uninjured.He pulled the movable metal piece of the hasp of the courtyard door hard, and with the action of the primary lever attached to this shaft, he took off the hasp, passed through the dish sink next to the kitchen under the ground, and walked into it. kitchen.He struck a safety match, turned the gas switch, and released flammable gas.He adjusted the burning flame until it turned into a whitish simmer.Finally, light a portable candle. At this moment, what flickering images did Stephen see?

Leaning against the fence of the open space in front of the basement, through the transparent window panes in the kitchen, he saw a man adjusting a fourteen-candle gas flame, a man lighting a one-candle candle, a man taking turns taking off a pair of boots, a man holding a Coming out of the kitchen with a candle. Had that man appeared elsewhere before? Four minutes later, through the translucent fan-shaped transom above the hall door, his flickering candlelight came into view.The hall door turned slowly on its hinges.Holding a candle, the man reappeared in the empty doorway without a hat.

Did Stephen listen to his gestures? Yes, he went in quietly, helped close the door, put up the chain, and followed the man quietly, pulling on his cloth slippers, holding a lighted candle, and knocking on the door on the left. Passing through the door with light peeking through the cracks, he walked carefully down the spiral staircase with more than five steps, and came to the kitchen of Bloom's house. What did Bloom do? He blew sharply at the flames and extinguished the candle.Two spoon-shaped wooden chairs were dragged to the fire, one for Stephen with the back facing the window facing the yard, and one for himself.He got down on one knee and put sticks of sticky resin and colorful papers into the grate, as well as twenty-one ton Good Abramo charcoal bought for a shilling.He piled them all criss-cross into irregular polygons, struck a safety match, and lit three corners of the paper.In this way, the two elements carbon and hydrogen in the fuel combine freely with the oxygen in the air to emit potential energy. What similar phantasms were there in Stephen's mind? He thought of those other people who had lit a fire for him while kneeling on one or both knees beside him; in the ward [19].His father, Simon Dedalus, in the unfurnished room at 15 Fitzgibbon Street,[20] his first residence in Dublin.His godmother, Miss Kate Morkan--lived on Usher Island with her dying sister, Miss Juliet Morkan.[21]His aunt Sarah, the wife of Rich (Richard) Goulding, in the kitchen of their flat at 62 Clan Brasil Street.His mother, Mary, wife of Simon Dedalus, in the kitchen of No. 12, North Richmond Street, on the morning of the Feast of St. Francis Xavier, 1898.[22 ].Father Bart, Deputy Dean of Studies, in the University Physics Laboratory at No. 16, North End of Stephen's Meadow.His sister Dili (Diliki), at his father's house in Cabra[24]. Stephen moved his gaze up from the fireplace to a yard up on the opposite wall.What did he see?It was a row of five household corkscrew bells, and below, between two hooks on either side of the recessed partition of the chimney, hung a rope bent across it, on which hung four small squares folded in half. Handkerchiefs: one piece next to another, not overlapping each other, rectangular in shape.There was also a pair of gray stockings, the uppers of Lyell cotton[25] and the usual pattern below the ankles.Each end is held with a straight wooden clip, and a third clip is held at the overlap between the crotch. What did Bloom see on the iron stove? On the right (smaller) pot rack is a small blue enameled saucepan with a handle, and on the left (larger) pot rack is a black iron kettle. What is Bloom doing on the iron stove? He moved the saucepan to the left pot rack, stood up, and carried the iron pot to the sink.Like this, turn on tap and just can put water to fill pot. Does the water come out? flowed.From the 2.4 billion gallon Roundwood Reservoir in County Wicklow, it flows through the Daggle River, Ruthdown, Downs Gorge and Carrow Hill, and flows into the 20-year-old Steele Organa. Six acres of reservoirs, with a distance of twenty-two statute miles between them.The single and multiple pipe subterranean aqueducts for the first phase of construction with filtration installations are contracted at a cost of £5 per yard of straight line.Regulated by a series of weirs, it flows over Eustace Bridge on Upper Leeson Street to the city limits at a gradient of 250 feet.But due to a prolonged summer drought and a daily water supply of 12.5 million gallons, the water level has dropped below the outfall.Civil Engineer Spencer Hardy, Metropolitan Comptroller and Waterworks Technician, was instructed by the Waterways Board (in view of the possibility of being forced to use the unfit for drinking water of the Grand and Royal Canals, as in 1893), except for drinking In addition, it was ordered that the use of tap water supplied by the city should be banned.In particular, the South Dublin Workhouse, although restricted to six-inch gauges, with a daily ration of fifteen gallons per pauper, was inspected under the supervision of Ignatius Rice, the city's legal adviser and defense attorney. Tables confirm that 20,000 gallons of water are wasted every night, to the detriment of all classes of society outside the hospital, that is, taxpayers who pay their own expenses and are able to pay. After returning to the iron stove, what attributes of water did this Bloom, who loves water, releases water, and transports water, praise? Its universality, its democratic equality, and maintaining its own leveling essence.The vast ocean marked on the map with the Mercator projection method[26]; the unfathomable depth of the Sunda Trench in the Pacific Ocean exceeding eight thousand fathoms[27]; The waves of each part and the particles on the surface of the water; the independence of the unit particle of water; the ocean is unpredictable; according to hydrostatics, it does not move at all when the weather is calm; according to hydrodynamics, it rises when the tide is high.The silence after the storm; the barrenness of the Arctic and Antarctic ice caps and their impact on climate and trade; a three-to-one advantage over the landmass of the earth; it extends throughout the subequatorial zone south of the Tropic of Capricorn its absolute authority over countless square nautical miles; its stability over tens of millions of years in primordial ocean basins; its orange-red seabed; its ability to dissolve soluble matter, including millions of tons of precious metals, and make its ability to remain in solution; its slow erosion of peninsulas and headlands tending to sink; its alluvium; its weight, volume and concentration; its tranquility in lagoons, alpine lakes; Tropical, temperate and frigid zones become thick or light; rivers that merge with lakes, streams and tributaries on land and flow into the ocean, and a transportation network formed by currents across the ocean.Gulf Stream from north to south along the waterway below the equator; seaquakes, waterspouts, artesian wells, fountains, turbulence, whirlpools, river surges, downpours, tsunamis, watersheds, watersheds, geysers, cataracts, whirlpools, sea whirlpools, Floods, floods, storms, etc.; the long curve of the upper soil around the land; the mystery of the source may be divined with a prospecting rod or revealed with a hygrometer; The saturation of water and the evaporation of dew can prove the underlying humidity; the simple composition of water, a compound of hydrogen and oxygen; the curative effect of water; the buoyancy of water in the dead sea; The tenacious penetrability shown by the cracks in the ship's gunwale; its ability to remove dirt, quench thirst, quench fire, and nourish vegetation; its reliability as an example and model; its variety: fog, mist, cloud, rain, wheat, snow , hail; and exert pressure on a sturdy fire hydrant; and in a variety of forms: lakes, forks, inland seas, bays, headlands, lagoons, atolls, island seas, straits, gorges, Minch[29], Tidal harbors, harbors; glaciers, icebergs, and floating ice fields show how hard it is; how docile it is when running waterwheels, turbines, generators, power plants, bleaching workshops, tanning factories, and hemp mills; The role played by canals, navigable rivers, floating docks and dry docks; the motorization of tides or the use of the drop of waterways to make it possible; Lives up to the name of the earth, but accounts for more than half of the creatures on the earth; water is ubiquitous, accounting for 90% of the human body; [31] The filthy pond, the stench from the water is full of poisonous gas. After he put the half-filled jug on the glowing coal fire, why did he turn back to the tap where water was still gushing? To rub the partly used bar of Barrington's soap (worth fourpence, bought on credit twelve hours ago) smelling of lemon, still clinging to the wrapper, on the fresh cold Washed in the water, eternal and ever-changing, and wiped face and hands with the long red-edged sackcloth on a revolving stick. On what grounds did Stephen reject Bloom's offer? He said that he suffers from hydrophobia, and hates contact with cold water, whether it is partially immersed or soaked in the whole body. (He took his last bath in October of the previous year); he doesn't like watery substances such as glass and crystal, and he has many doubts about the fluidity of thinking and language. Bloom had wanted to give Stephen some advice on hygiene and precautions, and to tell him that before bathing in sea or river water, he should wet his head, and that he should have violent strokes on the face, nape, chest, and upper abdomen. Watering makes the muscles contract, because the most sensitive parts of the human body to low temperature are the nape of the neck, stomach and soles of the feet.But why did he give up the idea again? For the properties of water are incompatible with the eccentric ingenuity of genius. And what didactic exhortations did he likewise refrain from? Nutritious recipes: protein and calorie percentages for bacon, salt cod and butter.Butter lacks the former, bacon is rich in the latter. In the eyes of the host, what is the most obvious advantage of the guest? Self-confidence has two equal but opposite capacities of self-indulgence and self-recovery. What concomitant phenomena took place in the water vessel due to the action of the fire? boiling phenomenon.The hole from the kitchen to the chimney is continuously ventilated upwards, and the scorching fire is fanned by it from the bundles of flammable firewood to the polyhedral bituminous coal pile.This coal contains mineral-like fossils condensed from the accumulation of fallen leaves of primitive forests; The energy medium [33] is conductive.One of the forms of motion caused by combustion - heat (convective heat transfer), is continuously and accelerated from the heat source body to the liquid in the container, and the heat is radiated to the surroundings from the uneven, unpolished black cast iron surface ; A part is reflected back, a part is absorbed, and the other part is conducted, so that the temperature of the water gradually rises from normal temperature to the boiling point.This rise in temperature may be marked as a result of consumption as follows: It takes seventy-two thermal units to heat one pound of water from fifty degrees Fahrenheit to two hundred and twelve degrees Fahrenheit. How does the temperature increase show up? Two streams of sickle-shaped water vapor are ejected from under the lid to both sides at the same time. What personal business could Bloom do with such boiling water? Shave yourself. What are the benefits of shaving at night? The beard is softer.If you intentionally soak your brush in a thick soap solution after shaving, it will be softer the next time you use it.In case you run into an acquaintance at a distance at an unexpected moment, your skin should be smooth.While shaving his beard, he calmly reviewed the events of the day.Sleep more refreshed and wake up feeling cleaner.Because of all the noises in the morning, and the suspense in my heart, the milk jug clanged and the postman knocked twice on the door.Reads a newspaper, rereads it while lathering it, and lathers it again in the same place; thinks something insignificant to be great.Then, after a shock, a blow, the speed of the razor was quickened, and a cut was made. At this time, a small piece of adhesive plaster was cut off, moistened and pasted on.It had to be like this. Why did the lack of light bother him less than the presence of noise? Because his hands, both strong and fat, both male and female, passive and active, have an accurate sense of touch. What properties does it (his hand) have, and yet what counteracts it? It has a surgical quality, yet even when the end justifies the means, he is far from willing to shed blood, preferring heliotherapy, psychophysiological therapy, and osteopathic surgery in accordance with the laws of nature. Bloom opens the kitchen cupboards: what are the lower, middle and upper shelves revealing? On the lower floor, there are five breakfast plates standing upright, and six breakfast trays lying flat, with a breakfast cup on each plate, and a mustache cup [34] and Derby made A dish with a crown pattern[35], four white eggcups with gold rims, and an open chamois leather bag showing some coins, mostly copper coins.There is also a small glass jar of flavored sweets (violet ones).There was a chipped eggcup filled with pepper on the middle shelf, the drum-shaped salt shaker was placed on the dining table, four sticky black olives wrapped in oiled paper, and a can of plum brand meat [ 36] in an oval wicker basket padded with silk, a single Jersey pear, and the remaining half-bottle of William Gilby's medicinal white wine (wrapped in The pink coral tissue paper on the bottle has been peeled off in half), a packet of instant cocoa made by Epps Co.; Two shillings a pound; a cylindrical jar of good crystal caramel; two shallots, the larger Spanish whole and the smaller Irish cut in two , larger in size and more pungent in smell; a pot of cheese from a model Irish dairy, a brown clay pot containing a quarter of a pint and a quarter of watered and soured milk ( It has been reduced to water by the heat, sour whey and semi-solid curds, and what Mr. Bloom and Mrs. Fleming consume for breakfast, will be enough for a pint, equivalent to the total amount originally sent); two lilac buds, a halfpenny piece, and a small saucer containing a piece of fresh chop meat.The upper level is a row of jam jars of various sizes and origins[41]. What was lying on the cupboard cornice[42] caught his attention? Two crimson horse race tickets[43] torn into four polygonal pieces, numbered: 887,886. He frowned for a moment because of what he remembered? He remembered how the outcome of the Gold Trophy Flat Jumping had been foreshadowed by a chain of coincidences.Fact was stranger than fiction: he had read the official and exact result of the race in the pink final edition of the Evening Telegraph in the coachman's shed on Butte Bridge. Where did he receive the foretelling of the outcome of victory or defeat, objectively or subjectively? In Bernard Kiernan's Liquor Shop at 8, 9, and 10 Little Britain Street; in David Bernard's Liquor Shop at 14 Duke Street at home; outside Graham Lemon's shop in Lower O'Connell Street, when a dour man thrust into his hand (and threw away) a leaflet[45] for tin Ann church restorer Elijah; in Lincoln Square outside F. W. Sweeney & Co., owned by the apothecaries, who was about to send the day's Freeman and National When it was lost (and he lost it), Frederick M. (Bantam) Lyons eagerly asked him for it, read it, and returned it to him; Walking up and down the eastern style building of the Turkish steam bath at No. 11 Lanster Street.In the light of inspiration, his countenance glows, and with his arms round the secret of victory and defeat,[46] engraved in prophecy. What alleviating consideration eased his uneasiness? After the event happened, the endings it brought were different, just as the sound after the discharge was as inexplicable.Even if the original explanation is to win, because the total loss in case of loss cannot be correctly estimated, how much damage to reality may be, there is no idea in mind. How is he feeling? He took no risks, expected nothing, was never disappointed, was content. What satisfies him? He suffered no substantial loss.Make others gain substantial benefits.Light of the Gentiles[47]. How did Bloom prepare supper for the Gentile? He scooped two hefty spoonfuls into each of the two teacups—four spoonfuls in total of Epps instant cocoa. Mix in the prescribed amount and method and let it disperse. What extra gracious hospitality did the hosts show their guests? He did not use the bearded mug with a crown imitating the Derby given to him by his only daughter, Millicent (Millie), which was his right as host.He used the teacup shared with the guest, and he put a good deal of heavy cream for Marion (Molly) for breakfast, and only a little for himself. Did the guest realize that the hospitality was so kind and expressed his gratitude? His host reminded him jokingly of his devotion, which he accepted with all seriousness.At the moment they were drinking Epps' mass-produced nutritious cocoa in half-serious, half-sounding silence. Is there any sign that the host wants to do something in other ways, but restrains it, leaving it to another person or himself to complete the action started today? There was an inch and a half torn on the right side of his guest's coat, which had to be sewn up.Just find out which of the four handkerchiefs is available, and give it to the guest. Who drinks faster? bloom.He drank ten seconds earlier than the guest, and sipped cocoa from the concave surface at the bottom of the spoon handle that was constantly heat transfer. The speed of cocoa was: for every sip of the other party, he took three sips; for every two sips of the other party, he took six sips; , he took nine sips. What kind of thinking activity did his repeated behavior cause? Based on his observations, he mistakenly believed that his silent partner was having a draft.He thought that what entertained him was not so much literature that entertained as literature that taught.In order to answer difficult questions in his imagination or in real life, he himself has consulted William Shakespeare's works more than once. Did he get an answer from it? Although he had carefully read and re-read some of the classics with the aid of a dictionary, he could not always get a proper answer on every point, so he got only insufficient conviction from the original. In 1877, Bloom, who might become a poet at the age of eleven, wrote for the "Clover" weekly essay competition (the prizes were ten shillings, five shillings, and two and a half shillings). How is the last stanza of the first poem written? With extravagant hope to see, Little poems are typed, If you don't give up, it will be collected, May it be given space, At the end begging general's signature, My name is Leigh Bloom. Had he discovered that there were four elements that were separating himself from this intruder? Name, age, race, creed. What anagrams did he make up based on his own name when he was a boy? Leopold Bloom Leopold Bloom Ellpodbomool [49] Molldopeloob Bollopedoom House of Commons Member Old Ollebo, MP On February 14, 1888, he (the dynamic poet[50]) wrote an acrostic poem ([51]) using his initials and sent it to Marion (Molly) Tweet di? Poets often write in rhyme, Divine hymn music, Ninety-nine and eighty-one overlapping, Better than poetry and wine, It belongs to me and the world. What's stopping him from finishing the title song (and score by RG Johnson) titled "If Brian Brue[52] came back to see old Dublin now"?It was written by Michael Gunn, the lessee of the Gay Theater at 46, 47, 48, 49 South King Street[53].The song was originally scheduled to be inserted in the sixth scene of the large-scale pantomime "Sinbad the Sailor" performed during the Christmas period. : George A. Jackson and Cecil Hicks; Costumes: Mrs. and Miss Whelan; Director: R. Sheldon; December 26, 1892 at Michael Gunn Performed under the supervision of the Lady herself, Jessie Noah as the ballerina, Thomas Otto as the buffoon), sung by the heroine Nellie Bufrist[55]. First of all, it is difficult to decide which of the two matters related to the royal family and the local area should be written in the song.Either the sixtieth anniversary of Queen Victoria (born 1820, accession 1837) was described in advance[56]; or the opening ceremony of the newly built municipal fish market[57] was postponed.Second, the fear that separate visits by the royal family, the Duke and Duchess of York[58] (real person) and their majesty King Brian Brue (a fictional character), would invite opposition from both the left and the right.Third, the newly completed Grand Opera Hall in the Berg Wharf area and the Royal Theater on Hawkins Street[59] have contradictions between professional etiquette and professional competition.Fourth, because of the irrational, apolitical, and unfashionable look of Nellie Bufrist that arouses sympathy from the audience; , when she (Nellie Bufrist) performed with her shirt exposed, it would arouse the audience's lust, and one feared it would drive the audience crazy.Fifth, picking the right piece of music or picking some hilarious metaphors from The Book of Jokes (1,000 pages, every joke hilarious) is difficult.Sixth, whether the theme song is homophonic or not, it is connected with the names of the new Lord Mayor Daniel Tarren, the new Chief Justice Thomas Pyle, and the new Deputy Attorney General Dunbar Plunkett Patton[60] . What is the relationship between their ages? Sixteen years ago, in 1888, when Bloom was Stephen's age now, Stephen was six.Sixteen years later, in 1920, when Stephen reached Bloom's age, Bloom was fifty-four.By 1936, when Bloom was seventy and Stephen was fifty-four, their age ratio had changed from sixteen to zero to seventeen and a half to thirteen and a half.In the future, as the age of each other grows arbitrarily, the ratio will become larger and the gap will be smaller and smaller.For if the ratio which existed in 1883 were likely to continue unchanged, then in 1904, when Stephen was twenty-two, Bloom would have been three hundred and seventy-four; In 1920, when Stephen was thirty-eight (which is Bloom's present age), Bloom would have been six hundred and forty-six; When the highest age after that was seventy years[61], Bloom was already 1,190 years old, and his birth year was 714[62]; Methuselah [63] who was one hundred and sixty-nine years old was two hundred and twenty-one years older.If Stephen had lived on and reached this age in A.D. 3072, Bloom would have been 83,300 years old, and his birth date is supposed to be 81396 BC.[64] What would invalidate these calculations? The cessation of existence of one or both parties; the enactment of a new era or calendar, or the end of the world leading to the inevitable and unpredictable extinction of humanity. How many times have they met before, so they can prove that they are old acquaintances? twice.The first was in 1887, at Jimaji Road, Roundtown, known as Matt of Villa Medina.Dillon's lilac garden; with Stephen's mother.Stephen was only five years old at the time, and he didn't like to extend his hand to say hello[65].The second time was in the coffee room of the Breslin Hotel on a rainy Sunday in January 1892.Stephen's father and great-uncle lived with him, and Stephen was five years older at the time. Did Bloom accept the invitation to the family dinner, proposed by the son and later approved by the father? He appreciated it very much, thanked him very much, appreciated it sincerely, and declined it with deep regret. Did their conversation about these memories reveal a third link between them? From September 1, 1888, to December 29, 1891, Mrs. Riordon[66] (Dante), a widow with some savings, lived with Stephen's parents.In 1892, 1993 and 1994 she stayed at the Emblem Hotel at 54 Prussia Street,[67] owned by Elizabeth O'Dowd.In 1893 and 1894, Bloom also stayed in the same hotel for a period of time, during which time she often gave Bloom the ear god.Bloom was at the time employed by Joseph Kraft at Smithfield Five, as a salesman at the Dublin Livestock Market in the nearby North Circular Road. 在体力方面，他可曾对她有过什么善举？ 有时在温暖的夏日傍晚，布卢姆把这位多少拥有一些资产足以自立的病孀扶到康复期患者坐的轮椅上，慢慢地将她推到北环路拐角处加文·洛[ 68] 先生的牲畜交易场所对面。她在那儿逗留上半晌，隔着他那架单镜头双筒望远镜眺望那些难以辨认的市民们：他们搭乘电车、气胎打得鼓鼓的自行车、出租马车、双驾马车、自家用或租来的四轮马车、单马拉的双轮马车、轻便小马车和大型四轮游览马车，在市区与凤凰公园之间穿梭着。 他何以对这样的看护工作如此安之若素？ 因为他在青壮年时，经常坐在屋里，隔着那嵌有浮凸饰的五彩圆玻璃窗子，观察外界大街上千变万化的景物：步行者、四足动物、脚踏车、车辆，或急匆匆或慢悠悠或不紧不慢地经过，沿着垂直的圆球面的边缘滴溜溜、滴溜溜、滴溜溜地旋转。对于八年前去世的她，他们二人各自有着什么样截然不同的记忆？ 年长的那位记得她那比齐克牌戏[69]和筹码，她那只斯凯骾狗[70]，她所冒充的富有，她对事物怎样缺乏反应，她所患的初期卡他性耳聋。年轻的那位则记得她那盏供在无染原罪圣母玛利亚雕像前的菜油灯，她用来象征查理·斯图尔特。巴涅尔和迈克尔，达维特的绿色刷子和绦紫色刷子，她的薄绉纸[ 71] 。 通过对年轻的朋友所透露的这些回忆，他更巴不得能恢复青春了，然而他还有没有办法来实现呢？ 室内健身操。尤今·桑道[72]所著《体力与健身术》中规定了如何操练。以前，他时断时续地练过，后来干脆放弃了。这种健身操是特地为坐着工作的商人所编排的，必须照着镜子聚精会神地操练，活动一下身上各个部位的筋肉，依次一张一弛地做令人心旷神怡的运动，以便恢复能给人带来莫大愉悦的青春活力。 青少年时代他可曾显示过特殊的机敏， 尽管在举重比赛方面他的体力不够，对于空中旋转，勇气又不足，然而念高中时，多亏腹部肌肉异常发达，他有本领在双杠上两臂垂直，双腿向前抬起，与身子成直角，长时间稳定地保持平衡。 二人之中有哪个直率地提到种族不同的问题吗？ 谁都没有提。 布卢姆对斯蒂芬关于布卢姆的看法到底怎么想法？而且，布卢姆对斯蒂芬究竟怎样看待布卢姆关于斯蒂芬的看法又有何想法？如果把这些想法用最简单的相互形式扼要地表达出来，究竟是怎 样的？ 他［布卢姆］认为，他［斯蒂芬]在想他［布卢姆]是个犹太人；同时他［布卢姆]知道，他［斯蒂芬］晓得他［布卢姆］明白他嘶蒂芬] 并不是个犹太人[73]。 冲破了沉默的樊篱后，他们弄清彼此的父母是什么人了吗？ 布卢姆是经过松博特海伊[74]、维也纳、布达佩斯、米兰、伦敦而来到都柏林的鲁道尔夫·维拉格（后改名为鲁道尔夫·布卢姆）和艾琳。希金斯之间所生的唯一的男子继承人，而艾琳是朱利叶斯。希金斯（原姓卡罗利）和范妮·希金斯（旧姓赫加蒂）之次女。斯蒂芬是自科克来到都柏林的西蒙·迪达勒斯与玛丽之间所生的孩子当中尚健在的共同的男子继承人中最年长的，而玛丽则是理查[75]与克里斯蒂娜·古尔丁（原姓格里尔）之女。 布卢姆和斯蒂芬都领洗了吗？Where?洗礼是由谁给施行的？ 是由神职人员还是在俗人员？ 布卢姆（领过三次洗）：在库姆的耶稣教圣尼古拉斯·威思奥特教堂，由可敬的文学士吉尔默·约翰斯顿独自为他施洗；在索兹 村[76]的水泵下，由詹姆斯·奥康纳·菲利普·吉利根和詹姆斯· 菲茨杰拉德共同为他施洗；在拉思加尔的三位主保圣人教堂由那位可敬的天主教神父查理·马洛尼[77]独自为他施洗。斯蒂芬（领过一次洗）：在拉思加尔的三位主保圣人教堂由那位可敬的天主教神父查理·马洛尼独自为他施洗。 他们二人可曾发现彼此有相似的学历？ 倘若斯蒂芬与布卢姆换个位置，斯图姆[78]就会顺序从幼儿学校起念完高中。倘若布卢姆与斯蒂芬换个位置，布利芬[79]就会顺序读完中等教育的预备科、初级、中级、高级课程，通过王家大学的入学考试，依次读完文科一、二年级，继而修完文学士课程。 为什么布卢姆抑制住自己，不曾说他进过人生这所大学？ 因为他拿不准自己是否已对斯蒂芬说过此话，或者斯蒂芬是否曾对他这么说过。 他们二人分别代表哪两种气质： 科学气质。艺术气质。 布卢姆所提出的哪些例证足以证明，他的个性与其说是倾向于理论科学，毋宁说是倾向于应用科学。 当吃饱后，为了助消化而仰卧着时，他曾思考过几项发明的可能性。这是由于认识到如今虽已司空见惯、当初却曾是巨大革新的那些发明的重要性，从而受到刺激：比方说，航空降落伞、反射望远镜、螺丝锥、别针、瓶装矿泉水、运河那有着绞车与泄水道的闸门装置、抽水机。 他这些发明主要是用来推动幼儿园改良计划的吗？ Yes.就是要把纸枪、橡胶浮囊、掷骰子游戏和弹弓排斥出去；其中包括展示白羊宫乃至双鱼宫这十二宫星座的天体万花筒、小型机械装置的太阳系仪、算术用菱形果子冻、相当于动物饼干的几何图形饼干、游戏用地球仪皮球、身穿历史服装的玩偶。 另外还有哪些因素在激发着他去开动脑筋？ 伊弗雷姆·马克斯和查尔斯·奥·詹姆斯在金融上取得的成功。前者是在南乔治街四十二号举办一便士展销会，后者在亨利街三十号开了一爿六便士半店铺并举办世界小商品市场和蜡制品展览会，门票：成人两便士，儿童一便士。还有近代广告术方面迄未开拓的无限可能性。如果压缩成三字母单一观念[80]的记号，那就是：竖着，能够最大限度地看到（察觉）；横着，能够最大限度地读到（辨认），还有着不知不觉地吸引人的注意力，产生兴趣，使之信服并采取行动的催眠般功效。 好的例子呢？ 吉·ll。吉诺批发店11 裤子[81]。 House of Keys.亚历山大·杰·凯斯。 不好的例子呢？ 瞧瞧这支长蜡烛。你要是猜中了它什么时候能燃尽，就免费赠送一双本店特制真皮靴子，保证足有一烛光的光泽。地址：巴克利与库克，塔尔博特街十八号[82]。 杆菌[83]牌（杀虫剂）。 最佳[84]牌（鞋油）。 你要[85]牌（与螺丝锥、指甲挫和烟斗通条合并在一起的双刃折叠小刀）。 最糟糕的呢？ 倘若你家里没有：李树牌的肉罐头， That's a fly in the ointment, 有它才算幸福窝[86]。
