[Long lists in Finnegans Wake and Ulysses]

[short essay]

FW071.10-072.16: 110-116 abusive names (italics, commas)

FW104.05–107.07: 132-142 names of mamafesta (italics, commas)

FW126.10-139.13: Finn's 391? feats (semicolons)

FW176.01-176.18: 44 games (italics, commas)

FW183.11-184.02: at most 93 items of Shem's litter (commas)

FW210.06–212.19: ALP’s 73-more-or-less gifts (colons)

FW306.L03-308.L01: 52 essay topics (marginal italics, fullstops)

FW470.36-471.05: 29 peace-words in 14 pairs + 1 (exclamation marks)

FW543.15-545.14: HCE's? 117?? exploits??? (commas)

FW601.21-.28 : 29 saints/churches (commas)

Since the numbers (except the last) betray no general pattern, there's no reason to think the first is really intentionally 111. (This would have implied that Joyce stopped adding new material when he reached the required count, or worse, made substitutions, or worst, pumped in filler when he was uninspired.)

FW2 adds 3 via new commas and dashes

ambiguous itemisations (if we favor 5 of these 6 we should hit 111):

"Burnham and Bailey, Artist, Unworthy of the Homely Protestant Religion," ['Artist' might go with either neighbor]
"You're Welcome to Waterfood, Signed the Ribbonmen," [Waterford was a Ribbonmen stronghold... yes?]
"Purged out of Burke's, He's None of Me Causin," [i disown him in his dishonor]
"Awl Out, Twitchbratschballs," [better rhythm]
"Fast in the Barrel, Boose in the Bed," [better rhythm]
"Boawwll's Alocutionist, Deposed" ['deposed' needs a subject]


Ulysses
ch12 (drunken hyperbole)

Irish heroes (86, commas)

Friends of the Emerald Isle (18, commas)

clergy present (24, semicolons)

What lay under exposure on the middle shelf of the kitchen dresser? (15 items, commas)

      labours at plant,
      the despair of his many benefactresses,
      calories exclusively from Rowntrees and dumplings,
      one bar of sunlight does them all January and half February,
      the V. de V's (animal diet) live in fivestoried semidetached but rarely pay tradesmen,
      went security for friend who absconded,
      shares same closet with fourteen similar cottages and an illfamed lodginghouse,
      more respectable than some,
      teawidow pension but held to purchase,
      inherited silk hat from father-in-law,
      head of domestic economy never mentioned,
      query how they live,
      reputed to procure,
      last four occupants carried out,
      mental companionship with mates only,
      respectability unsuccessfully aimed at,
      copious holes emitting mice,
      decoration from Uganda chief in locked ivory casket,
      grandmother has advanced alcoholic amblyopia,
      the terror of Goodmen's Field,
      and respected and respectable,
      as respectable as respectable can respectably be,
      though their orable amission were the herrors I could have expected,
      all,
      let them all come,
      they are my vill villeins,
      with chartularies I have talledged them.
