In celebration of Bloomsday, the origin of Bloomsday—the first of Margaret Anderson’s 1918 to 1920 serialization of Joyce’s Ulysses in her magazine The Little Review, beginning with the ‘Telemachus’ chapter in vol. 4 no. 11 shown below (full PDF of the issue courtesy of the Modernist Journals Project). The serialization was, like much modernist lit mag business, thanks to Ezra Pound. Anderson was eventually forced to stop serializing the novel when the Society for the Suppression of Vice charged the magazine with obscenity and issues containing the ‘Nausicca’ chapter were seized by the U.S. Post Office. Anderson (and co-editor Jane Heap) were convicted and fined $100.
