Abstract

The paper offers a comparative analysis of the construction of the image of women that is carried out by two great writers of the XX century: J. Joyce in his "Ulysses" and Henry Miller in his "Parisian Trilogy". Joyce in his novel synthesizes all the existing myths and images of women. Miller following Joyce in creating images of women offers not a game as his predecessor does but an attempt to get the essence of femininity.
