What Did James Joyce Mean When He Wrote Ulysses Anyway ? Part IIof an age rolling on the laughter of the last waves of romanticism seemed lost to deaf ears. The madness of economic chaos, and the nightmare of a Hitlerish Germany were only around the corner waiting for the long winding trollies to stop. Their bells would come to a screaching halt in only a few years, but if a person is willing to dream, he can still step back into the silent mists of a Dublin early morning and hear those soft whistles filling the air of another Irish springtime. For Joyce, the eternal spring of life had not yet been extinguished. His novel lies on the shores of a time when man had not yet seen the horror of chaos. The first real modernistic novel of the century had not yet seen the horrendous chaos that was to eventually surface in a postmodern world.
