<div>We saw the 2 types of shell; it would have been good to have seen 2 types

<div>Hi, Woolfians! Each semester I have my students do a creative project, and
this semester, one student turned a famous passage from <em>Mrs. Dalloway</em>
into a compelling piece of digital storytelling. I very much enjoyed it
(especially the flower imagery) and would love to hear your thoughts, on or off
list. View it here:<br><br><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rls-p5yDLG0"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rls-p5yDLG0">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rls-p5yDLG0</a></a>
<br><br>In a second, unrelated, note, I am putting together a syllabus for
Masterpieces of British Literature next semester and want to focus on "nature
and the artist." I have some ideas for texts, of course, but would love to hear
if any of you have suggestions of British works that feature nature, and the
artist in nature, in unusual or noteworthy ways.<br><br>Be
well!<br>Erin<br>_________________________<br>Erin Kingsley<br>Ph.D. Candidate
