This paper investigates how Joyce mirrors the paralysis of the Irish who stick to the unrealistic ideology rooted in the binary division of Mary and Eve which affects nationalist discourses on women, nature, and their national identity. Cultural nationalists in colonized Ireland tried to fix their national image as the Virgin Mary who carries motherhood and idealized virginity altogether, denying the sexuality of women. However, Joyce reveals that the sexuality of women is the very source of motherhood which also leads to artistic creation. That is deduced in Bloom`s creation of Gerty`s inner landscape in "Nausicaa" and the analogy of biological gestation to artistic creation in the "Oxen of the Sun." Gerty is perceived by Bloom as the mixture of the two seemingly opposites, and the creative force of nature in female sexuality is described as the same source of artistic creation. Bloom`s "metempsychosis" to cross the boundaries of age, sex, and nationality through imagination in Ulysses presents us with an epistemological alternative to overcome the byproducts of the traditional Cartesian dualism that constantly reproduces the dominance-submission relationship and ultimately alienates us from ourselves.
