Legend Editions employed: D Dubliners [Viking Press "definitive" edition] P A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man [Viking Press "definitive" edition] E Exiles [Viking Press] S Stephen Hero [New Directions] G Giacomo Joyce [Viking Press]—named characters only Ulysses [Random House 1961] Name in Regular Type: character created by Joyce Name in FULL CAPITALS: character pre-existing Joyce's fictional use; fictional, historical, legendary, or contemporary *Name preceded by asterisk: actual resident in Dublin Name* succeeded by asterisk: not actually a person in this case "Name" in quotation marks : pseudonym, nickname, alias, nom de plume, conjectured name, misnomer, stage name, mock title, punned name Name unadorned by either parentheses or brackets : actually present (Name) in parentheses: mentioned, referred to, alluded to, thought about [Name] in brackets : appears in hallucination in Circe chapter exclamation mark indicates expletive or ejaculation rather than a person ?: question mark indicates that identity or appearance in doubt Discrepancies between ACTUAL NAME and Joyce's variant are indicated by inclusion of both, differentiated by appropriate type.
