ENGL 353 The Writings of Virginia Woolf 6 credits
Virginia Woolf is regarded as one of the chief modernist writers, as well as one of the twentieth-century’s most important feminist thinkers. She revolutionized the novel and the concept of time in fiction, as well as ideas of gender and sexuality. She, along with other members of the Bloomsbury Group, was also a critic of World War I and the build-up to World War II. In this course we will read the majority of her novels, as well as selected essays, diary entries, and letters. Articles by literary critics will offer various contexts for our discussions. Some works included: Mrs. Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, Orlando, and “A Room of One’s Own.”
