A uniform view of the world or humanity based on traditional values has finished and instead multifold viewpoints have replaced it. Especially in the 1920s many artists tried to embody those views in their creative ex- periments - in literature, art, play, movie, and so forth. While considering the experiments of English novels in this period, the present writer finds two leading motifs functionlng in them - decomposition and metamorphosis. And in this paper, three novels are taken up to sbow the functions of tboEemotifs: D.H. Lawrence's Women in Love (1920), A. Huxley's Crome Yellow (1921) and J.Joyce's Ulysses (1922). "Decomposition" seems to be common to all the three novels, and "metamor- phosis", mainly in Ulysses. In these novels, the authors tried to describe the multifold aspects of the present world by decomposing the plot, story, theme, style, prlnciple of causality, etc. Such an experiment is, comparable to Futurism and Cubism in painting. And above all, Joyce in Ulysses attained a kind of originality by metamorphorsing his subjects expressed in every possible word, style, standpoint, etc. This process overlaps with that of Picasso's works of the same dacade and later, where men and animals are decomposed and metamorphosed, sometimes even into monsters.And through this decomposition and metamorphosis of subjects, Joyce roposed an answer to the problem of expressing the manifold disorders in this world, without disintegrating the novel itself., application/pdf}, pages = {1--18}, title = {「解体」から「変貌」へ―1920年代のイギリス小説―}, volume = {3}, year = {1982}, yomi = {アンドウ, イズミ} }
