SUMMER, 1979 i The President’s M essage Mid-term of the administration — what do you want your president to tell you? There are more than likely 15,000 suggestions, so 1 will suggest some of the most important bits of information that we need to recapitulate. First, may I say the Seventy-fifth Anniversary celebration at The Greenbrier. March 29-31. was more than I expected. The hostess district. Southern, really did an outstanding job; all participants in the program were great — it was evident that cooperation was the keyword throughout the entire convention. I have had in these two days since convention over 100 requests for a copy of Dr. Haggai's speech, to me this interest shows that our West Virginia clubwomen are truly concerned about the SURVIVAL OF OUR NATION. Let’s keep the beautiful memories of 1978-79 and now begin our vital work for 1979-80. Members are now more aware of their personal health and especially weight loss. We must keep this program going. At our convention the three top contestants in ihe weight loss contest had lost 193 pounds in eleven months. Have a weigh-in of interested participants'now and see how much excess weight we can lose — our health depends upon it. Club members have become • more conscious of social problems: child abuse, teenage pregnancies, rape, shoplifting, MKS. HERSEL M.

  • Novel to Novel to Film: from Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway to Michael
    Rogers 1 Archived thesis/research paper/faculty publication from the University of North Carolina at Asheville’s NC DOCKS Institutional Repository: http://libres.uncg.edu/ir/unca/ Novel to Novel to Film: From Virginia Woolf’s Mrs. Dalloway to Michael Cunningham’s and Daldry-Hare’s The Hours Senior Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For a Degree Bachelor of Arts with A Major in Literature at The University of North Carolina at Asheville Fall 2015 By Jacob Rogers ____________________ Thesis Director Dr. Kirk Boyle ____________________ Thesis Advisor Dr. Lorena Russell Rogers 2 All the famous novels of the world, with their well known characters, and their famous scenes, only asked, it seemed, to be put on the films. What could be easier and simpler? The cinema fell upon its prey with immense rapacity, and to this moment largely subsists upon the body of its unfortunate victim. But the results are disastrous to both. The alliance is unnatural. Eye and brain are torn asunder ruthlessly as they try vainly to work in couples. (Woolf, “The Movies and Reality”) Although adaptation’s detractors argue that “all the directorial Scheherezades of the world cannot add up to one Dostoevsky, it does seem to be more or less acceptable to adapt Romeo and Juliet into a respected high art form, like an opera or a ballet, but not to make it into a movie. If an adaptation is perceived as ‘lowering’ a story (according to some imagined hierarchy of medium or genre), response is likely to be negative...An adaptation is a derivation that is not derivative—a work that is second without being secondary.

  • Addition to Summer Letter
    May 2020 Dear Student, You are enrolled in Advanced Placement English Literature and Composition for the coming school year. Bowling Green High School has offered this course since 1983. I thought that I would tell you a little bit about the course and what will be expected of you. Please share this letter with your parents or guardians. A.P. Literature and Composition is a year-long class that is taught on a college freshman level. This means that we will read college level texts—often from college anthologies—and we will deal with other materials generally taught in college. You should be advised that some of these texts are sophisticated and contain mature themes and/or advanced levels of difficulty. In this class we will concentrate on refining reading, writing, and critical analysis skills, as well as personal reactions to literature. A.P. Literature is not a survey course or a history of literature course so instead of studying English and world literature chronologically, we will be studying a mix of classic and contemporary pieces of fiction from all eras and from diverse cultures. This gives us an opportunity to develop more than a superficial understanding of literary works and their ideas. Writing is at the heart of this A.P. course, so you will write often in journals, in both personal and researched essays, and in creative responses. You will need to revise your writing. I have found that even good students—like you—need to refine, mature, and improve their writing skills. You will have to work diligently at revising major essays.

  • “A Grievous Necessity”: the Subject of Marriage in Transatlantic Modern Women’S Novels: Woolf, Rhys, Fauset, Larsen, and Hurston

Mapping the character of Clarissa in The Voyage Out (1915), “Mrs. Dalloway’s Party” (1923), and primarily Mrs. Dalloway (1925), I highlight Woolf’s conviction that negotiating modernity requires an exploratory yet protected consciousness for married women. Rhys’s early novels, Quartet (1929), After Leaving Mr. Mackenzie (1931), Voyage in the Dark (1934), and Good Morning, Midnight (1939), portray women excluded from the rite of marriage in British society. Unable to counter oppressive Victorian mores, her heroines invert the modernist impulse to “make it new” and face immutability instead, contrasting with the enforced multiplicity of identity endured by women of color in Fauset’s Plum Bun (1929) and Larsen’s Quicksand (1928) and Passing (1929).

They got out of the EMS truck, as usual moving much too slowly in our opinion, and the fat one said under his breath, "This ain't TV, folks, this is how fast we go." He was carrying the heavy respirator and cardiac unit past the bushes that had grown monstrous and over the erupting lawn, tame and immaculate thirteen months earlier when the trouble began. Cecilia, the youngest, only thirteen, had gone first, slitting her wrists like a Stoic while taking a bath, and when they found her, afloat in her pink pool, with the yellow eyes of someone possessed and her small body giving off the odor of a mature woman, the paramedics had been so frightened by her tranquillity that they had stood mesmerized.

  • Parallels and Relationships Time
    PARALLELS AND RELATIONSHIPS TIME "The Hours" deals with three women’s lives – their lives shown through what happens to each of them during one day. This follows the pattern of the novel "Mrs. Dalloway". But it is not quite as simple as that. Both the film and novel begin with the suicide of Virginia Woolf. In the introductory scene of the film, there is a play on time – we see Virginia walking towards the river whilst the film cuts back in time to the moment when she is writing her final letter to her husband, Leonard. At the end of the film we cut back to Virginia standing in the river before she drowns. So we are almost back to the beginning of the film again. The film is based around this interplay of time – moving from one period to another, allowing us to compare and contrast the lives of the three women, but the three stories are framed by Virginia’s suicide. Why do you think that both the filmmaker and the author of the novel "The Hours" chose to start with Virginia Woolf’s suicide? How does this affect the way in which we understand the rest of the story? © Film Education 2003 1 POINTS IN TIME The lives of the three women that we see in "The Hours" take place in very specific moments in time and in very different social situations. TASK In the chart below, try to describe each character, give details about their social standing and describe the relationships that they are in. DESCRIPTION OF SOCIAL STANDING RELATIONSHIPS CHARACTER VIRGINIA WOOLF LORNA CLARISSA © Film Education 2003 2 Once you have done this, is it possible to make any comparisons between the three women? Do their different "days" and experiences suggest anything about the ways in which women’s lives have changed over the past eighty odd years? Virginia and Laura are both, in a sense, prisoners of their time and societies, and both long for freedom from this imprisonment.

  • Rabbit, Run by John Updike
    Rabbit, Run By John Updike The motions of Grace, the hardness of the heart; external circumstances. -Pascal, Pensée 507 Boys are playing basketball around a telephone pole with a backboard bolted to it. Legs, shouts. The scrape and snap of Keds on loose alley pebbles seems to catapult their voices high into the moist March air blue above the wires. Rabbit Angstrom, coming up the alley in a business suit, stops and watches, though he's twenty-six and six three. So tall, he seems an unlikely rabbit, but the breadth of white face, the pallor of his blue irises, and a nervous flutter under his brief nose as he stabs a cigarette into his mouth partially explain the nickname, which was given to him when he too was a boy. He stands there thinking, the kids keep coming, they keep crowding you up. His standing there makes the real boys feel strange. Eyeballs slide. They're doing this for themselves, not as a show for some adult walking around town in a double-breasted cocoa suit. It seems funny to them, an adult walking up the alley at all. Where's his car? The cigarette makes it more sinister still. Is this one of those going to offer them cigarettes or money to go out in back of the ice plant with him? They've heard of such things but are not too frightened; there are six of them and one of him. The ball, rocketing off the crotch of the rim, leaps over the heads of the six and lands at the feet of the one.

  • A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements
    ABSENT COMPANY : ELEGIAC CHARACTER IN THE NOVELS OF FAULKNER AND WOOLF A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Erin Kay Penner January 2012 © 2012 Erin Kay Penner ABSENT COMPANY : ELEGIAC CHARACTER IN THE NOVELS OF FAULKNER AND WOOLF Erin Kay Penner, Ph.D. Cornell University 2012 This dissertation examines the work of William Faulkner and Virginia Woolf through a formal lens that allows us to look beyond their differences in culture and nationality to what I argue is their shared fascination with the elegy. In taking up the elegy Faulkner and Woolf also rewrite the genre, using the novel to offer pointed critiques of the poetic tradition in three distinct stages of elegiac reinvention. In the first, Faulkner and Woolf abandon the pastoral elegy’s single narrative in favor of several competing narratives; in this they use to their advantage what Bakhtin calls the novel’s heteroglossic capacity. In the second stage, the authors foreground the voices of the dead and thus draw attention to the way the traditional elegy silences the elegiac subject. In a final manipulation of elegiac convention, Faulkner and Woolf blur the distinction between the elegist and the elegiac subject through a series of character doublings, and in doing so they renegotiate the terms of the protagonist’s position in the modernist novel. Like the subject of the first chapter, The Sound and the Fury , which revels in the different voices of its elegists, Woolf’s The Waves , the subject of Chapter Two, stresses both the harmony and the dissonance in the mourning hymn of its six speaking characters.
