Here is our next podcast. This is the recording of my 2011 lecture at Ocean County College on what I refer to as the "propaganda of privilege" in Intermodern England. George Orwell, Milk Raj Anand, and Virginia Woolf are discussed.
The Mortal Storm
My desk copy of Phyllis Bottome’s intermodern novel The Mortal Storm came in the other day. This is going to be a fun one to teach next semester.
New Post At Blogging Woolf
I have a new post up over at Blogging Woolf. This time, I am writing about intermodernism, a term coined by Dr. Kristin Bluemel for literature and arts in Britain during the years between the World Wars. If readers are interested, I have plenty more to say about intermodernism.
New Post At Blogging Woolf
In recent weeks, I have a new post up over at Blogging Woolf. This time I am writing about Mrs. Dalloway again, specifically the role of the epic hero in the novel compared to Arnold Bennett’s novel Anna of the Five Towns. This was revised from a paper I wrote in graduate school and a few dinner conversations with Toni Magyar back then.
I really enjoy writing for Blogging Woolf. I will be posting more over there soon about Intermodernism
Defining The Intermodernist Sex/Gender System: Beginning Steps Using The Mortal Storm & Three Guineas
(almost done clearing out the graduate school queue)
For Dr. Bluemel’s seminar on Intermodernism, I wrote my seminar paper
in an attempt to define some sort of “sex/gender” system for
Intermodernism, beginning with her own full length George Orwell & The Radical Eccentrics: Intermodernism In Literary London.
To do this, of course, I relied heavily on Gayle Rubin from a
theoretical standpoint. From a literary point of view, my focus was
on Phyllis Bottome’s The Mortal Storm and Virginia Woolf’s Three Guineas.
