Abstract
On Translatability of James Joyce

The paper deals with certain linguistic and cultural aspects of translating Joyce’s fiction. Since the author has fairly recently produced the first Serbian translation of Ulysses, most of the examples will be taken from that novel, with an attempt at drawing some general conclusions about the main problems in translating Joyce’s works.
