Summary/Abstract: Feasting on the Text: the “Ulysses” Centenary in Romanian Periodicals. The aim of this paper is to revisit a selection of the Romanian periodical issues dedicated to James Joyce’s fiction up until the 1980s. Our investigation of the main themes and topics published before and after the year 1982 reveals an alignment with an already established shift of perception in Joycean studies: the author is glorified as an Irish and/or Irish-European modernist writer whose assignment to a specific, local culture is the pre-condition of his modernity and innovative style.
