James Joyce. Author of, e.g., Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man, Ulysses, and (my favourite) Finnegans Wake.

Ulysses is the Latin name of Odysseus, yes.
He modeled the book Ulysses after the Odyssey, to some degree.

My teacher is extremely excited that we're all reading "The Odyssey" for class. She gives us handouts, so I cannot go ahead. The version that my teacher passes out, is, according to her, the best one their is. xD The main character's name is Ulysses in the book we're reading, but in the movie we are going to watch, his name is Odysseus. :3 heart We're only at the Keeper of the Winds part, so I can't wait until we read to the spider part!! blaugh *feels over-excited* xD

Homer wrote The Odyssey. It's not the same as Ulysses.
Ulysses just borrows structural elements from it.
A favourite quote of mine: "The only thing I ask of my readers is that they devote their entire life to understanding my works." - James Joyce.
Might not be verbatim, but that's the idea.
