  • It Is Time for Virginia Woolf
    TREBALL DE FI DE GRAU Tutor/a: Dra. Ana Moya Gutierrez Grau de: Estudis Anglesos IT IS TIME FOR VIRGINIA WOOLF Ane Iñigo Barricarte Universitat de Barcelona Curso 2018/2019, G2 Barclona, 11 June 2019 ABSTRACT This paper explores the issue of time in two of Virginia Woolf’s novels; Mrs Dalloway and To the Lighthouse. The study will not only consider how the theme is presented in the novels but also in their filmic adaptations, including The Hours, a novel written by Michael Cunningham and film directed by Stephen Daldry. Time covers several different dimensions visible in both novels; physical, mental, historical, biological, etc., which will be more or less relevant in each of the novels and which, simultaneously, serve as a central point to many other themes such as gender, identity or death, among others. The aim of this paper, beyond the exploration of these dimensions and the connection with other themes, is to come to a general and comparative conclusion about time in Virginia Woolf. Key Words: Virginia Woolf, time, adaptations, subjective, objective. Este trabajo consiste en una exploración del tema del tiempo en dos de las novelas de Virginia Woolf; La Señora Dalloway y Al Faro. Dicho estudio, no solo tendrá en cuenta como se presenta el tema en las novelas, sino también en la adaptación cinematográfica de cada una de ellas, teniendo también en cuenta Las Horas, novela escrita por Michael Cunningham y película dirigida por Stephen Daldry. El tiempo posee diversas dimensiones visibles en ambos trabajos; física, mental, histórica, biológica, etc., que cobrarán mayor o menor importancia en cada una de las novelas y que, a su vez, sirven de puntos de unión para otros muchos temas como pueden ser el género, la identidad o la muerte entre otros.

  • Newhaven Town Council Annual Report 2009-2010
    Picture courtesy of the Sussex Express Newhaven Town Council Annual Report 2009-2010 Introduction by the Town Mayor Councillor Carla Butler It was a great honour to be chosen as the 26 th Mayor of Newhaven and it has been a year that I will never forget. My main objective during my term was to support the young people of the town who often get a bad press. One way I wanted to achieve this was by the introduction of a “Young Mayor”. In July Daly Tucknott was elected as Young Mayor and Chloe Leister as deputy. Although at times we learnt how the project would work as we went along it has been very successful and there has been a lot of positive feedback from the public and other authorities along the way. I would like to thank both Daly and Chloe for their support and especially Daly for accompanying me at so many events throughout the year. I was particularly pleased that it was agreed Daly could join me in the line up to meet Her Royal Highness Princess Anne when she visited Tideway School. This had the effect of showing to other people the importance of the role. It also proved that young people can learn that they can make a difference and contribution before they can even vote and they are still able to influence decisions which are made. I have been able to support many fundraising objectives of different groups in the town. Most surprising for me was whilst helping raise funds for the local branch of Mencap, I found out that they receive no funds from Mencap itself and rely totally on volunteers and their own fundraising.

CHARLESTONTOCHARLESTON.COM FOR TICKETS VISIT CHARLESTONTOCHARLESTON.COM CALL 843.723.9912 1 WELCOME Welcome to an exciting new trans-Atlantic literary festival hosted by two remarkable sites named Charleston. The partnership between two locations with the same name, separated by a vast oceanic expanse, is no mere coincidence. Through the past several centuries, both Charleston, SC and Charleston, Sussex have been home to extraordinary scholars, authors and artists. A collaborative literary festival is a natural and timely expression of their shared legacies. UK © C Luke Charleston, Established in 1748, the Charleston Library Society is the oldest cultural institution in the South and the country’s second oldest circulating library. Boasting four signers of the Declaration of Independence and hosting recent presentations by internationally acclaimed scholars such as David McCullough, Jon Meacham, and Justice Sandra Day O’Connor, its collections and programs reflect the history of intellectual curiosity in America. The Charleston Farmhouse in Sussex, England was home to the A Hesslenberg Charleston © Festival famed Bloomsbury group - influential, forward-looking artists, writers, and thinkers, including Virginia Woolf, John Maynard Keynes, Vanessa Bell, Duncan Grant and frequent guests Benjamin Britten, E.M.

This year’s Charleston to Charleston Literary Festival inaugurates a partnership dedicated to literature, ideas, and creativity.
