[this episode was the first done with G's 3-vol in front of me, so it presents as new discoveries many topics assumed already (actually later) for the episodes above]

As I understand it, there are many small differences between the manuscript and all subsequent versions, and G's mostly-consistent policy was to override the dozens of times J let those subsequent changes stand, and revert to the ms version... usually without even noting the change in his footnotes!

But the later versions seem as good or better so often that I think it's perfectly fair to make these the editor's call in every instance, separately. (Either way had J's okay at some time.)

15.7 "slowly. Children."

G reverts to the ms's comma

G overrides J here with 'Mecklenburgh' from 9.1089. I prefer it but can't abide the change

15.117 "bread and wine"

G blames a typist for this change from the ms's 'bread or wine'. The latter implies drunken incoherence where this is subtler.

15.126 "down turned in planes intersecting,"

J originally put a comma after turned, but I prefer this published version.

15.140 "The navvy staggering forward cleaves"

G restores the ms's commas, which seem excessive to me

15.243 "pursepocket"

J wrote 'watchfob, pursepoke' but after inserting 'pocketbookpocket' I think the revision was called-for

15.283 "widow Twankey's crinoline and bustle, blouse"

'blouse' needs a modifier, so I wonder at G's reconstruction here

15.290 "at all, at all"

the comma can't be traced to J but I prefer it

15.299 "jacket slashed"

J included an unneeded comma

15.325 [ellipses]

G restores J's irregular numbers of dots

15.339 "earth, I"

G thinks J wrote a period

15.345 "wife, Mrs"

the comma can't be traced to J, but works better for me than G's period.

15.353 "pigeon, humming"

G thinks the humming insertion should precede 'plump' but I think normally a passive trait (plump) needs to come before an active one (humming)

15.361 "rainbedraggled Bridie"

J's comma seems unneeded to me

15.387 "pockets stands"

J's comma seems unneeded to me

15.399 "Walls have hears"

G rejects this entirely, but if it's a typo it's a felicitous one.

15.414 "buttonholes leap"

G restores J's unneeded comma

15.485 "sandwich boards"

G joins these, pleading "e" (see 15.84)

15.585 "Beaver Street"

15.704 "paper hoop"

G joins these, pleading "e" (see 15.84), against J's request at "a3"

15.721 "von Bloom Pasha"

G mixes early 'Blum' back into later 'von Bloom' [Kidd]

15.740 "Castile"

see 11.14'

15.753 "Leopold!"

G deletes a repetition of this name, and I accept that, esthetically.

15.802 "occupation. Author-journalist"

G reverts to J's ms comma here.

15.812 "Arsewiper"

G blames the final 'r' on a typist, but it has a Joycean tang

15.842 "lie showing"

G overrides J and adds a comma (pleading "e")

15.854 "society."

if I read G right, he's reverting to a "!" against J's specific revision?

15.876 "rumpled, softly"

i don't understand G's symbols here, but I find his colon unJoycean

15.992 "onto"

J wrote 'on to' but I find that distracting

15.993 "bearded with"

J included an unneeded comma

15.1015 "brick quilted"

G joins these, pleading "e" (see 15.84)

15.1107 "hands, with"

the ms had a colon that a typist dropped and J okayed

15.1114 "Pig dog"

G joins these, pleading "e" (see 15.84)

15.1269 "bowers fly"

technically there should be a comma, but I accept the consensus

15.1356 "Raleigh"

G restores ms typo [Kidd]

15.1402 "royal Dublin fusiliers"

G imposes caps for consistency with 15.4607 [Kidd]

15.1402 "own"

G overrides J with a capital O

15.1510 "chair borne"

J included an incorrect comma (implying Selene was borne, not the chair)

15.1527 "builder construct"

J included an unneeded comma

15.1576 "tram lines"

G joins these, pleading "e" (see 15.84)

15.1652 "mix."

G substitutes the more plausible 'nux'

15.1703 "Kildare Street museum "

G has 'street' [Kidd]

15.1732 "(Laughter.)"

G formats this as separate from Bloom's speech.

15.1750 "gas ovens"

G joins these, Kidd says almost totally without evidence

15.1908 "George S Mesias"

G prefers the factual R (credited to Jack Dalton) to J's specific S

15.1929 "saying.)"

the published versions with this period make no sense, but omitting it is also unacceptable, so I'll stick with the version J okayed.

15.1936 "(He exhibits"

G formats this as part of Bloom's speech.

15.1954 "Messiah, Alleluia "

this passage was a late insertion that never made it to print, but G still respects J's unhappy missing comma

15.2084 "caterpillar"

G justifies J's habitual misspelling (doubled t) based on the OED, but Kidd points out it was corrected in 1932

15.2097 "Bah!"

at three points here G substitutes 'Ba' pleading "e" based solely on 15.114

15.2189 "Dave"

G guessed 'Dove' [Kidd]

15.2262 "Mananaan"

J 'corrected' other typos twice to 'Mananann' according to G, but Kidd says it was fixed in 1932 to the expected 'aan' (also 15.2267)

15.2286 "on to"

(I'll stick with J on this one.)

15.2392 "parchmentroll"

Kidd challenges this compound but I'm with G

15.2405 "whores, then"

if I read G right, J deleted whores and then restored it, and G reads this (improbably?) as deleting the comma

15.2477 "Pretty"

(G formats this as separate from the stage direction.)

15.2492 "pendant"

J used pendent and pendant inconsistently, but I'll respect it here (overriding the published version)

15.2614 "MacChree"

G restores ms 'my Chree' blaming typist error okayed by J [Kidd]

15.2654 "Cardinal"

G reverts to ms lowercase

G reverts to ms's gurgling no-dashes

15.2678 "exclaims.)"

another colon

15.2853 "dead with"

G restores ms comma

15.2869 "do, tremble"

15.2928 "help? (They"

G formats with skipped line

15.2933 "Asylum"

G rejects capital

15.2933 "bytheby"

G reverts to ms's three words

15.2994 "trunkleg"

I'm accepting G's joining these (crediting Jack Dalton) overriding J's "a8"

15.2995 "Hotel"

G de-caps

15.3001 "lieutenant"

I accept G's de-capping here, blaming typist

15.3002 "Signor"

G de-caps

15.3003 "Bert the"

J had an unneeded comma

15.3004 "Sheridan, the quadroon Croesus"

Herring wrongly argues (Circe 9:145-6) that the comma belongs after quadroon, but it's a single unit

15.3029 "Black Church"

G reverts to ms church

15.3030 "D'Olier street"

I'll stick with G's ms version here

15.3235 "and, passing under interlacing yews,"

J omitted helpful commas

G blames the plural on a typist!??

15.3486 "glass eyes"

G reverts to ms 'round'

The Online Ulysses Repair Kit

The main source I've relied on is Sandulescu and Hart's "Assessing the 1984 Ulysses", which includes a very useful index-to-quotations in the back. (I recommend this book, not least for an irrelevant-but-great essay by Richard Kain on Dublin in 1904!)

I also have access to most of Kidd's critiques, especially "An Inquiry into Ulysses: the Corrected Text" from the Papers of the Bibliographic Society of America, December 1988. There are also a few items below from Gaskell and Hart's "Ulysses: A Review of Three Texts" a.k.a. the 'Repairkit', which I have not studied closely yet.

I'm concentrating almost entirely on differences between the 1961 Modern Library edition and the 1984/86/93 G edition.

I'll distinguish five classes of changes: good G, doubtful G, 'bad' G, Gabler-having-second-thoughts, and on-beyond-Gabler. The 'bad' Gabler readings are mostly due to Kidd, and are generally not very serious.

Format:

Gabler/ML61  Gabler's version [?] alternate version
             approved change   [  doubtful original         [good]
             doubtful change  ?[  preferred original        [doubtful]
             Gablerian error   ]  fix/restoration           [bad]

             doubtful reading  ]? proposed repair           [maybe bad]
