We owe Virginian Woolf and the other out_spoken inspiring women we owe them our lives, careers and everything. Imagine how our lives would have been like if these people hadn't head to change anything.. that's why we should never fail them and we should continue rewriting the history
I think the issue of women's liberation or feminism is not confined to one sex , it is like all liberation confined to ' liberation' being liberated from anything and liberated from constructs..I am nearing the end of Woolf's Night and Day and I have become very engaged within the novel's pages, I like her narrative very much and find it seamless like swimming underwater without needing to come up for air..
Just finished the wonderful ride of Orlando, Woolf is a master, loved this lecture. Re write history, supplementing the voices not heard. Find them. ✌️❤️
K now I definitely need to read this book. At the Art Academy I often felt this way, even though I'm a guy, and it gave inspiration to create images that represent this paradox of being a man yet being perceived by other men as something they would consider female, or nowadays more often, a homosexual.
So far from You, but yet I feel likewise about this matter, although beeing heterossexual, even so I have a feminist way of seeing things, more than most of my male friends would like, I have to admit it. Reading -- amazing -- female writers (portuguese speaking or not) had enhanced this perspective, this natural enclination. I´ve read only two Virginia´s books, so far, and I´ve already fallen in love with her. I´m reading her´s third one (A Room of One´s Own). If You have the chance, just look for a brazilian writer called Clarice Lispector, she´s very famous and internacionaly known, and the way she writes, in some ways, is very similar to Virginia´s.
@@ROBERTOCRUZ-ic1bu Hi Roberto, I just got back to this video bc I'm returning to Virginia's work for some research and I have picked up some work of Lispector since last time. She's truly phenomenal, and believe it or not, but she's only now starting to become known and respected in Dutch speaking areas :)
I am very fond of going to America so I keep learning to do English, I am a Pakistan I want to see beautiful cities of america once in my life And I hope God fulfills my wish Your video was great And i love it so much i got to learn a lot Jesus christ bless you
To the Servants - spoken by an imaginary Virginia Woolf: "One of the servants, Nelly of course, informed by husband Leonard that I only changed my drawers once a fortnight. My husband didn't know where to put his face! Of course, he admonished Nelly: what effrontery! And then Nelly the cook said Leonard was 'brainwashed' and that I was too; but what does brainwashed really mean in these modern times? Then the saucy woman actually suggested I wash my own drawers instead of writing about 'the wash of time'; how could I write, I remonstrated, if I had to do my own laundry? Apparently, Leonard said to Nelly that he was all too aware of my propensity to neglect my underwear; but Nelly - like all rough women - can be excessively vulgar. We live in very changing times I suggest; in some ways; perhaps".
Our pain moves in an area of vast sadness We don't find paws that wipe the weights of steadfast fear off our shoulders All suspicions wake up to the sound of doubt coming from the mouths of the traitors Nothing compares to the sails departing from the ports of memories Have you seen with the eyes of your dreams the mirage of years in the seasons of false wish? Return to your deserted consciences, you poets who escaped from the prison of iron despair. There are flowers waiting for your words for a winter touch in the summer of burning words. ALI SUROOR
A century later, Woolf's writing still echoes the experiences of women today. This changed me.

She liberated white women so black women don’t owe her anything
I love the way the lecturer expresses her ideas

it’s very good of your university to provide the lessons online freely, only those who want to earn the certificate etc could pay

It is such a wonderful book, I highly recommend it; I read it few months ago and now I am reading Three Guineas and I am not disappointed at all

Great lecture
This Lecturer is so interesting
I found Three Guineas greater (but Room did have the excellent pickup of Mrs Woolf's on the sentence, "Chloe liked Olivia."
Interesting lecture
"a wink, a laugh, perhaps, a ROAR..."
Brilliant!
to listen to Virginia is to understand the mountain i stand upon is but a molehill on what was to come.....the tunnel opening is the new horizon
I love this so much

Wow, what an interesting lecture.
Nice.
