Dena Ferguson Instructor Ramon Guel English 310 19 July 2015 James Joyce: Paralysis and Epiphany The paralysis of life has bared the understanding of Joyce’s literary “epiphany” for many readers.

"Out of ancient myth of the magician who sells his soul to the Devil for occult powers‚ Marlowe has fashioned a veritable fable of Renaissance man" (Source 5 113). The goal of any true renaissance man is to improve himself. This goal may border on heresy‚ as it leads to a man trying to occupy the same position as God.
