Resumo

A comida não é apenas uma necessidade biológica, mas também um fenômeno sociocultural. Embora os alimentos sejam uma necessidade vital para a sobrevivência das pessoas, eles não contêm apenas sabor e ingredientes, mas contêm outras coisas como emoções, símbolos de identidade, relações de poder, papéis de gênero, economia e regras sociais. As escolhas alimentares afetam muitas áreas da sociedade e da vida dos indivíduos. Este artigo analisa o uso da comida no Ulisses de James Joyce através do seu herói comum Leopold Bloom. O romance, como épico do corpo, usa a comida como reflexo da vida cotidiana e do realismo grotesco. Além disso, a comida é utilizada em todo o romance para exemplificar a identidade pessoal e social de Bloom. Bloom é um homem pacifista, não tradicionalmente masculino, metade irlandês, metade judeu, que também se sente como um forasteiro em Dublin. Todos estes aspectos são narrados no Ulisses através da comida que ele escolhe. Joyce criou um romance sobre a vida com todos os seus aspectos, incluindo a comida.
