Bloomsday at the Rosenbach Details
This year marks the 104th anniversary of Leopold Bloom’s fictional journey through the streets of Dublin, as imagined in James Joyce’s novel,
Ulysses
, with the Rosenbach Museum’s day-long celebration of Bloomsday.
The Rosenbach Museum and Library, home to Joyce’s original
Ulysses
manuscript, hosts the free festivities along the block of Delancy Place for seven straight hours, as notable Philadelphians and Joyce enthusiasts bring the novel to life with lectures, readings and reenactments.
You see, this year the worlds of the living and the dead collide on Bloomsday, the only international holiday that recognizes one specific work of art. From the brilliant short story “The Dead” to Leopold Bloom’s wanderings through the underworlds of the city streets, Joyce saw Dublin as a place populated by ghosts.
The Bloomsday programs will look at Ulysses as a “ghoststory,” including a screening of John Huston’s ''The Dead,'' lectures and talks about other works by Joyce that feature ghosts, and an Irish wake (less formally known as a pub crawl).
The celebration is free and open to everyone. For a complete listing of Bloomsday events, visit the
Rosenbach Museum and Library
