An understanding of the ways in which Joyce employs ambiguously sexual words and situations that constitute both characters and readers as imperfectly initiated, unable to decode ambiguous signifiers, allows for a fuller appreciation of Joyce's style. It also affords insight into how the social world leaves its imprint upon the individual subject through idiosyncratic and contingent personal experience, and, conversely, how such experience lends intense affect to social movements.
