This thesis attempts to read ¡§Circe¡¨from Freudian perspectives to explore Joyce's narrative intermingling of psychical and historical worlds. It begins with an analysis of the haunting theme in this chapter,the dead, which constantly returns in¡§fantastic scenes,¡¨ followed by an elaboration on the way the ¡§Uncanny¡¨and the¡§Phantasy¡¨operate in each scene. These fantastic scenes,for me,function as signifiers for the unconscious of Joyce's characters and text:they express,abnegate, ridicule,exaggerate,and even betray the psyche of the two male protagonists¡Xespecially Bloom's castration complex¡Xand leads to a narrative and character aberration,allowing Joyce to repudiate the tradition of drama and novel, especially the English narrative convention of linear storytelling. By constructing a fantastic Ireland through crooked mirroring,Joyce becomes not only an international writer, but also an Irish writer.
