This work analyses the level and depth of the humour employed by Joyce in "Ulysses". It shows its serious function within the narrative, shedding fresh light on many familiar characters and episodes. The particular matter of "folly" is demonstrated as being "richly consistent" in the three major characters of the book, while their source of selfhood is seen as "surprisingly familiar and traditional".
