	Ancestral Voices - Charles Swann and Leopold Bloom
		Bloom, as a Jew, is an exile in Dublin, in the static city of Joyce’s memory, and therefore he can be Joyce himself, a Dubliner in exile refracted through an exile in Dublin.
		Bloom is universally accepted as a Jew, by himself and by every character in the book, by Joyce and his model, Ettore Schmitz, by anyone who has the read the story with the slightest enlightenment, the least enjoyment.
		Bloom is not Joyce, Marcel is not Proust, but Ulysses and Remembrance are distinct in being conscious attempts to universalise the personalities of their authors.

		Leopold Bloom "not verbally" but "substantially" affirms "that as a competent keyless citizen he had proceeded energetically from the unknown to the known through the incertitude of the void" (697).

	ireland.com \| Bloomsday
		His mother, Ellen Higgins, was a gentile; his father converted in order to marry her; their son Leopold was neither circumcised nor bar mitzvah'd; he married out, going through the motions of conversion to Catholicism in the process; he flouted the Jewish dietary laws and proclaimed himself an atheist.
		And whatever about Leopold Bloom himself, it is simply inconceivable that Molly Bloom, that sensuous and earthy shikse, would have been offered the basket-chair normally reserved for Israel Citron when she and Bloom visited the Citron home.
		Bloom's agnosticism would have been more acceptable in a city where one Jew in five had renounced his or her faith, and where a significant proportion of marriages involving Jews were mixed.

		Of all the Hapsburgs, Leopold I (1640-1705) seems to be the one whose personal life and habits have attracted most popular attention, but I have not found a story such as this about him.
		Leopold's career was intimately related to King Otto's; Leopold became prince regent in the same year that Otto, who was adjudged insane as early as 1872, became king.
		The latter went insane in 1872, was kept under strict scrutiny (a secrecy which bred stories of strange goings-on) until he was finally deposed in 1912; he was not a Habsburg (rulers of the Austro-Hungarian empire).

	The Fading World Of Leopold Bloom - New York Times
		June 16 is the 100th anniversary of the day in 1904 on which Dublin's best-known fictional Jew (and cuckold), 38-year-old Leopold Bloom, wandered the city as a modern-day Odysseus and, after numerous adventures located more in his mind than on the street, circumnavigated his way home.
		They can retrace Bloom's footsteps to Davy Byrnes's ''moral pub'' or indulge in Bloom trivia by buying cakes of lemon soap, as Bloom did for his secret epistolary lover, Martha.
		Bloom famously relished ''the inner organs of beasts and fowls'' and ''grilled mutton kidneys which gave to his palate a fine tang of faintly scented urine'' in his decidedly nonkosher morning fry-up (he fries with butter).
