Women’s History Month Lecture

I was asked to speak at Ocean County College during their women’s history month celebration. I spoke last week to about 30 people , which was a period I was heavily invested in during graduate school. There are numerous references to Virginia Woolf, George Orwell, F.R. Leavis, Storm Jameson, and Mulk Raj Anand, amongst others.

I will have a podcast of my lecture up as soon as I figure out how to transfer it to mp3 from my phone.

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.

New Post At Blogging Woolf

I have contributed another post to Blogging Woolf, this time about the role of intertextual and geographical citation in the works of Virginia Woolf and Arnold Bennett. If you look to the right hand side of the weblog, I am now listed as a writer. I will contribute posts on a semi-regular basis about Woolf and a number of subjects related to her writing.

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 . 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 and Virginia Woolf’s Three Guineas. ()

Guest Blogging: Prof Hacker + Blogging Woolf

I want to highlight a few guest blog posts I have contributed in recent weeks:

First, I contributed to about the role of social media at the conference. There is a lot of great information and ideas in that post. I tried to come at it from a different angle that hopefully supplement the other ideas.

Secondly, I wrote a post about the role of intertextuality in Mrs. Dalloway for the Blogging Woolf weblog. This coincides with the Mrs. Dalloway Online Discussion Day that happened a day later as part of Woolf In Winter. Hopefully, in the future, I will be writing a few more posts for Blogging Woolf.
