Leslie McDowell carried the torch and lit up a weekend on the maternal.

The setting was again international: Marilyn Reizbaum (in the chair), Elizabeth Brunazzi, Frances Ilmberger, Marie Dominique Garnier, Katharina Hagena, Nancy Derboven, Carol Shloss, Ginette Verstraete, Andrew Treip, Dan Schiff.

One remote and circuitous outcome of this meeting is a volume of essays on Ulysses: En-Gendered Perspectives, edited by Kim Devlin and Marilyn Reizbaum.
