The structure of Ulysses is considered to be the most complicated problem. While reading the previous researches of Ulysses, the author of this study found that current existing researches of Ulysses demonstrate an obvious inclination of the emphasis on content study rather than on form study. In view of such a case, this text attempts to carry out research on its structure in the hope of making some contribution in this respect.Ulysses is the model of the novel of the stream of consciousness, the content and form of which runs counter to the traditional novel. Therefore, this text first described Ulysses ' subversion of the linear structure of the traditional novel in three respects: time, story, and plot. Then, it introduced the key view of this text: Ulysses violates the traditional convention, setting up a unique overall space structure arrangement. As a result, it established a new type for the west modern novel. And then, start from the analysis of text, the author made a concrete analysis of the space structure arrangement and its 5 kinds of behavior in the work of Ulysses: scene juxtaposition, repetition, chapter alternating, multiple story, and irony. Finally, the author made a brief discussion of the aesthetics signification the space structure of Ulysses, and the influence of the space structure of Ulysses on postmodernism creation and the ideal of novel.
