[Vwoolf] Not About Virginia Woolf—but another doomsday piece on the MLA

[Hagen, Benjamin D]

One of the two IVWS-MLA 2022 sessions was postponed to the 2023 convention (meaning we might have three sessions in San Francisco). The online IVWS-MLA session, “Woolf’s 21st-Century Academia,” was well attended over Zoom (and superb!). I can’t recall the exact number of attendees, but I think it was between 20 and 30?

Related to the article that Karen has shared is a recent piece by Dora Zhang, who has written on Woolf in Strange Likeness: Description and the Modernist Novel. Here is the link to the piece in the Chronicle of Higher Education: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.chronicle.com/article/is-there-a-future-for-literary-studies__;!!KGKeukY!g44nsSAFirFESsY0nQrMHIH2pXcH3m7Qde0Y-9lTmjmjih2mOZ0zbr9tsg5NwhokWz0$ .

If you don’t have a subscription/institutional access to COHE, you can read/download the text here: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.dropbox.com/s/6yr5wdy6y8ficxt/Step*20Aside*2C*20Quit*20Lit*20and*20Adjunct*20Lit.*20Here*20Comes*20Retirement*20Lit_.pdf?dl=0__;JSUlJSUlJSUlJSU!!KGKeukY!g44nsSAFirFESsY0nQrMHIH2pXcH3m7Qde0Y-9lTmjmjih2mOZ0zbr9tsg5NdehaWFA$ 

I think it’s also worth watching Merve Emre’s recent acceptance speech for the NBCC award for reviewing: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://youtu.be/kKKlw8WcyII__;!!KGKeukY!g44nsSAFirFESsY0nQrMHIH2pXcH3m7Qde0Y-9lTmjmjih2mOZ0zbr9tsg5NmQLmG6w$ . Thanks to Maggie Humm for helping boost this on Twitter so that I found it this morning!

Best,
Ben

Were the Woolf sessions (relatively well-) attended?
