[101] The old queen refers to Queen Victoria (see Note [105] in Chapter 1).Widowed in 1861, she buried her husband, Prince Albert, in Frogmore's Tomb, where she remained a widow for life.After her death, according to her last wish, the coffin was transported in a cannon cart, and her body was buried with her deceased husband.

Related to this article is the sixth paragraph: "Who will be the priest? /The rook said, I. /Bring my little book, /I will be a priest.” There is a slight discrepancy in the sentence, and I don’t know whether it’s because Bloom remembered it wrong, or there are different versions circulating. [111] In English, the coffin (coffin) is pronounced as Coffin, which is similar in pronunciation to Coffey. [l12] This Latin prayer was originally written as ln nomine Domini (in the name of the Lord).Bloom heard it as Domine namine. Domine is "lord", but namine does not have this word. [113] Around 1857, some people in the Church of England, led by pastor, novelist, and poet Charles Kingsley (1819-1875), argued that Christians must have a strong body in order to maintain integrity and Get true religion.

[122] After O'Connell's death, his body was initially interred in a round altar surrounded by a deep ditch in the center of the cemetery.Later, in memory of him, a 160-foot-high round tower was built in this cemetery.In 1869, his body was relocated and buried in the underground mourning hall of the tower. [123] Dan O is short for Daniel O'Connell. [124] O'Connell died in Geneva in 1847.According to his wishes, the heart was buried in Rome and the body was returned to Dublin. [125] She refers to Mary Goulding Dedalus, late wife of Simon Dedalus. [126] In the same boat, this refers to the fact that among the mourners, only himself and Kernan do not believe in Catholicism and are in the same situation. [127] The Anglican Church in Ireland is a Protestant church. It was designated as the National Church of Ireland in 1537, but the number of believers only accounts for one-eighth of the total population.Catholics make up four out of five.Therefore, its state church status was revoked in 1869, and it has been self-supporting ever since. [128] The Anglican Church in Ireland uses English instead of Latin for its ceremonies. [129] This is what Jesus said to Martha, see John Chapter 11, Section 25. [130] According to Chapter 6, Section 40 of John's Gospel, Jesus said to the crowd that God's will is to give eternal life to all who see Jesus "and believe in him; at the last day, I (Jesus) will make them resurrection". [131] According to Chapter 11, Sections 39 to 44 of "John's Gospel", Martha's brother had been buried for four days, but Jesus asked people to remove the stone blocking the entrance of the tomb and shouted: "Lazarus, Come out!" The dead man came back to life and came out. [132] "cameforth" (coming out) in the English translation of the "Bible" is homonymous with "camefourth" (the fourth one coming out).Here is a play on words, saying that he was "camefifth" (fifth out), so he lost his job. 2l4 [133] The troy system is a unit of weight used in Britain and the United States to measure gold, silver, and precious stones.Twelve British taels per pound, twenty British dollars per British dollar, and twenty-four grains (grains) per British dollar.Gram is the metric unit of weight, and each gram is about fifteen and a half grains.

[138] The phrase "when... come" comes from Act 3, Scene 2 of "Hamlet".At this moment, the prince has made up his mind to avenge the murder of his father, and he uses this confession to express his feelings. [139] There are still legends in Dublin that Daniel O'Connell had a large number of illegitimate children, so he is called the "Father of Ireland". [140] Refers to Romeo digging open the door of the tomb and seeing Juliet in a coma after taking sleeping pills.See Romeo and Juliet, Act 5, Scene 8.

[143] Major Gamble was the caretaker of Mount Jerome Cemetery. [144] Mastensky was Bloom's neighbor. [145] In Kyiv under the rule of Tsarist Russia in 1912, a Jew named Mendel Belis was suspected of killing a Christian boy in order to draw his blood for the Passover feast. on trial.The Western world saw this as a deliberate anti-Semitic slander, which sparked outrage and Baylis was released.But this book is about what happened in 1904.There is a discrepancy in time. [146] A moth with skull-like patterns on its back, hence the name. L147] Both lines are quoted from Boylan's song about girls on the beach (Boylan once sang "dizzy" as "cloud").The second sentence is slightly different.See Note [65] in Chapter Four and related text. [148] According to Western folklore, Peter, a disciple of Jesus, is the priest of heaven.In Act 8, Scene 4 of Ibsen's poetic drama "Peer Gynt", Peer coaxes his dying mother to say that he will send her to heaven, and Peter is guarding the gate of heaven. [149] Punch wine is a soft drink made by mixing wine with fruit juice, spices, milk, tea, sugar, etc. [150] In Hamlet, Act 5, Scene 1, the gravediggers, played by two clowns, say something both absurd and philosophical. [151] The original text is a Latin proverb.Here, Bloom misremembered a word, which should have read: "Say nothing but good things about the dead." [152] The phrase "of my" comes from Chapter 3, Scene 2 of Shakespeare's tragedy Julius Caesar.After the ancient Roman commander Caesar was assassinated by the Republicans, Caesar's supporter Anthony gave a speech to the people, inciting the people and driving the Republicans out of Rome.This sentence appears at the beginning of the speech.The author changed the "I" in the original sentence to "we" when quoting.The middle of the month is the fifteenth day of March, May, July, and October in the ancient Roman calendar, and the thirteenth day of other months.Mid-March is the day of Caesar's assassination, and mid-June is the anniversary of Dignam's death. [l53] This man in the tape raincoat appears several times in the book. Elman said in "James Joyce" (note on page 516) that Stuart Gilbert believed that the prototype of this character was Joy W. Weatherup, a colleague of John Joyce's father, John Joyce, was a tax collector. [154] Robinson Crusoe is the protagonist in Defoe's (1660-1731) novel of the same name (1719).After he was exiled to a desert island, he rescued an aborigine from the cannibal on Friday, and named him "Friday".But in the original, he was not buried by "Friday", but returned home on a British ship. [155] These are the first and fourth lines of a song entitled "Poor old Robinson Crusoe," quoted slightly altered.The original song reads: "Poor old Robinson Crusoe is missing, / On an island they say, / He stole the skin of a he-goat, / I don't know how he could do it." [156] The Jews were eager to transport their remains back to the holy land of Palestine for burial after death, or at least put a handful of soil from the land in the coffin to accompany them.

[165] According to the teachings of the Catholic Church, after the death of ordinary people, their souls must first go to purgatory in order to atone for their sins.After the death of a good person, the soul goes directly to heaven, while the soul of the wicked goes to hell. [166] There was indeed a medical doctor named Louis A. Byrne who was working as coroner in the city of Dublin at that time. [167] Here Bloom remembered what the boatman had told him that morning on the beach about a man who had drowned nine days earlier, that is, last Tuesday.See Note [122] of Chapter One and related text.He was confused with the Athenian painter Apollodorus (active 5th century BC).None of his paintings such as "Odysseus" are mentioned in ancient documents.A little later than him, the famous ancient Greek painter Zeke Sis (? - about 400 BC) had created some genre paintings, such as "Boy Holding Grapes".Legend has it that the painting of grapes can be faked, and some birds are attracted to it.The painter himself said that if the boy painted the same realistically, the birds would be too scared to come and peck.Here, the author made some changes to the legend. [183] ​​The language comes from the third chapter of Dante's "Divine Comedy Inferno".The whole sentence is: "If I didn't see it, I wouldn't believe that the god of death has done so much!" The original work refers to the ghosts in hell, but here it means that there are many graves. [184] This is a common epitaph, and there is often a sentence below it: "You will also be like us now." It is the tone of the dead (self-proclaimed "we") speaking to the living. [185] This rat reappears in Chapter 15 (see note [186] in that chapter). [186] The name of Robert Emery on the tombstone reminds Bloom of the Irish nationalist leader Robert Emmet (1778-1803) with the same name and a similar pronunciation of the surname.Emmett participated in the United Irishmen, an Irish political organization established in 1791 with the purpose of emancipating Catholicism and realizing parliamentary reform, and led a group of anti-British rebels to march to Dublin Fort.After the defeat, he was arrested, convicted of treason, and sentenced to death by hanging. "Here" refers to the tomb.After Emmett was executed, legend has it that his remains were moved to St. Michael's Church in Dublin or this Prospect Cemetery in Glasnevin, where they were buried in secret.However, in 1903 (the 100th anniversary of Emmet's death), when people came here to find his bones, they found nothing. [187] According to the teachings of Christianity, people will be resurrected at the end of the world.So the priest is against cremation. [188] Here is a paraphrase of what the Creator said to Adam in Chapter 3, Section 19 of "Genesis": "You were made of dust, and you will return to dust." [189] The Parsis are descendants of Zoroastrians (also known as Zoroastrianism or Zoroastrianism) who immigrated from Persia to India in the seventh and eighth centuries AD to escape Muslim oppression.Zoroastrians put the corpse on the tower, and after the flesh of the corpse was eaten by birds, they sealed the bones in jars. [l90] Mrs. Sinneco is a character in "Dubliners: Sad Stories", the wife of Captain Sinneco.She drank too much because she couldn't get the warmth of love, and was run over to death by a train while crossing the railway. [l91l These are the words in a letter from Martha that Bloom received that morning, see note[36] to Chapter V. [192] Tantalus was the son of Zeus in Greek legend. Volume 11 of the "Odyssey" mentions that Ulysses saw him being tortured in the underworld. He stood in the water up to his chin, but whenever he opened his mouth to drink, the water receded.There are many fruits hanging on his head, but as long as he reaches out to take them, the wind will blow the fruits to the sky.This refers to a glass wine cabinet with a built-in lock that cannot be taken arbitrarily.
