Sexuality and Linguistic Versatility in UlyssesIn order to discuss the relationships between sexuality and linguistic versatility, I have chosen the two female characters, Molly and Gerty. The main reason for this is that Odysseus' female voice is only heard at length on two occasions, but I would say it is very important. So important in fact that Joyce chooses to conclude the novel with Molly's monologue. I hope to convey some of the contrasts and similarities in these different monologues (despite the fact that in Gerty's case it is technically never her monologue). In addition, I tried to take into account the fact that we perceive the relationships between female sexuality and linguistic versatility through the eyes of a man. Molly's monologue is in the form of a monologue as opposed to other forms of internal monologue. Molly's monologue in common with Gerty's is often disjointed. Inevitably, this suggests that neither Molly nor Gerty received much formal education. But the style of Molly's monologue is that of colloquial speech. There is also a lack of punctuation in Molly's monologue, which has the effect of accelerating the pace of reading. For this reason, we feel that the language is exploratory and exclamatory. About a quarter of all the "becauses" in Ulysses are found in the episode "Penelope" which consists entirely of Molly's monologue. In Molly and Gerty's monologue, the excessive use of "because" gives a superficial logic to their thinking: "Like the one who denies it to my face and also sings about the toilet seat because 'she knew she was too well off. yes, because he couldn't do without it for that long. It was all the difference because she could almost feel him pulling her face to his and the first quick, warm touch of his beautiful lips. "I think the overuse of 'and' gives a flow to both of their monologues. The ebb and flow of thoughts is strongly linked to the movement and flow of the sea, which seems to have great importance in both of these episodes. I think the language points us to a difference between men and women, that women are less rational than men..
