While a book series on "Major Literary Characters" seems an elementally good idea, and while the complete list sounds intriguing-including Elizabeth Bennett and King Arthur-in practice this particular volume is slightly flat. Bloom's characteristically sweeping introduction does not add to our understanding of his namesake. The content of the volume itself comprises eleven additional essays, all previously published, followed by a character profile (which, in an example of rather sloppy editing, cites some of the precise passages from Ulysses that the last essays do) and a brief bibliography. The selection includes excerpts from Richard Ellmann's and Hugh Kenner's works as well as more recent-though not that recent-selections from Suzette Henke, Vincent Cheng, Zack Bowen, and others. This is, in other words, a gathering together of highly respected Joyceans, chosen in no small part, it seems to this reviewer, for their pieces' relevance to Bloom's-Harold's, that is-own interests and preoccupations. Since Bloom appreciates clear, inviting prose, we are thus treated to the opportunity to reread bits and pieces of Kenner's "Ulysses," and a very little bit indeed of Ellmann's "Ulysses" on the Liffey (a scant four pages), both of whose writing remains lucid and precise. 1 Fritz Senn's "Bloom Among the Orators" repays rereading too, with its subtle and deliberate consideration of Bloomian rhetoric in the context of Dublin speech. 2 Since Bloom also retains a strong interest in psychoanaly

And then the wind resumes. I almost wait for the power to cut out, lines clipped by branches broken or snagged: I have filled kettle, water jug, a pot, knowing that if it cuts out our pump will cut out too, and the well, not dry, will seem so. And so these slight preparations.

Negara Indonesia merupakan salah satu Negara berkembang yang memiliki jumlah penderita diabetes melitus yang cukup tinggi. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian observasional analitik dengan pendekatan Cross sectional. Populasi adalah 126 orang dan jumlah sampel sebanyak 84 orang yang ditentukan menggunakan teknik Purposive Sampling. Analisis data menggunakan analisis univariat dan analisis bivariat menggunakan uji chi-square. Hasil uji chi-square antara riwayat keluarga diabetes dengan diabetes melitus diperoleh nilai p value 0,000 p<0,05 dan α=0,05 yang berarti ada hubungan antara riwayat keluarga diabetes dengan diabetes melitus. Hasil analisis antara perilaku sedentari dengan diabetes melitus diperoleh nilai p value 0,000 p<0,05 dan α=0,05 yang berarti ada hubungan antara perilaku sedentari dengan diabetes melitus. Simpulan terdapat hubungan riwayat keluarga diabetes dan perilaku sedentari dengan diabetes melitus. Disarankan untuk pihak puskesmas agar kiranya dapat meningkatkan upaya promotif dan preventif terhadap Penyakit Tidak Menular terutama untuk penyakit diabetes melitus untuk mencegah faktor risiko yang menyebabkan penyakit diabetes melitus.

Yet, as with so many such subjects, the specific ways in which mem ory influences an understanding of Irish identity, politics, and history are more often implicit within a wider scope of issues than subject to scrutiny themselves. In Memory Ireland, Oona Frawley has put together an impressive and wideranging collection of essays that tackle the subject of Irish memory explicitly. Contributors address the ways that memory functions at the “conjunction” of an institutional critique of historiography and the rise of postcolonialism, often incorporating the theoretical frame of Trauma Studies to engage what Frawley calls the “historical group trauma” of Ireland’s past. The first in an anticipated four-book series, Memory Ireland inaugurates a careful investigation of “the conception of Irish cultural memory” through the m...

Though the Afghanistan represented in the text is shown to be in a state of civil war stemming from tribal conflict, it is, simultaneously, an occupied space with an inheritance of multiple occupations. This palimpsestic arena serves as a meeting ground for key characters, each of which hails from and so represents a distinct part of Afghanistan's legacy. The novel also offers a meditation on the nature of extremism and its representations in the post-9/11 era. If, as Baudrillard suggests, terrorism like that enacted on 11 September 2001 succeeds because of its symbolic value, Aslam's novel pursues the notion of the symbolic through language as a way of moving beyond the standoff created by current-day (and largely American) rhetoric about extremism. The 'global civil war' enacted in the pages of The Wasted Vigil thus offers a critique not only of definitions of civil war, but also, and perhaps more significantly, a far more damning critique of the American-centric perspective on globality and media's normalization of the unimaginable image.

Does cultural memory rely on the memories of individuals, or does it take shape beyond the borders of the individual mind? Cultural memory has garnered particular atten-tion within Irish studies. With its trauma-filled history and sizable global diaspora, Ireland presents an ideal subject for work in this vein. What do stereotypes of Irish memory-as extensive, unforgiving, begrudging, but also blank on particular, usually traumatic, subjects-reveal about the ways in which cultural remembrance works in contemporary Irish culture and in Irish diasporic culture? How do icons of Irishness-from the harp to the cottage, from the Celtic cross to a figure like James Joyce-function in cultural memory? This collection seeks to address these questions as it maps a landscape of cultural memory in Ireland through theoretical, historical, literary, and cultu...

This book opens new pathways into the body of Irish cultural memory, demonstrating time and again the ways in which memory is supported by the negotiations of individuals within wider cultural contexts.

Ireland, with its trauma-filled history and huge global diaspora, presents an ideal subject for work in this vein. This series as a whole seeks to construct a landscape of cultural memory in Ireland, focusing in particular on how cognitive capacity for memory might influence the formation of cultural memory and how that cultural memory shifts over time. Volume 3 focuses on the impact of the Famine and the Troubles on the formation and study of Irish cultural memory. Topics considered include hunger strikes, monuments to the Famine, trauma and the politics of memory in the Irish peace process, and Ulster Loyalist battles in the twenty-first century. Gathering the work of leading scholars such as Margaret Kelleher, Joseph Lennon, David Lloyd, Joseph Valente, and Gerald Dawe, this collection is an essential contribution to the field of Irish studies.

An exemplary author to consider in relation to questions of how it is that history is remembered and recycled, Joyce creates characters that confront particularly the fraught relationship between the individual and the historical past; the crisis of colonial history in relation to the colonized state; and the relationship between the individual's memory of his or her own past and the past of the broader culture. The collection includes leading Joyce scholars including Luke Gibbons, Vincent Cheng, and Declan Kiberd and considers such topics as Jewish memory in Ulysses, history and memory in Finnegans Wake, and Joyce and the Bible.
