“At the National Library, a group including Stephen and George Russell (AE) discuss literary and philosophical ideas. Stephen\u2019s original theory about Hamlet <\/em>is a central topic. In Homer, Odysseus must pass between a sea-monster, Scylla, and a whirlpool, Charybdis. For Joyce, the tension is between Stephen\u2019s Aristotelian position and AE\u2019s Platonic mysticism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
