[Vwoolf] Digital Storytelli​ng and Mrs. Dalloway

[Stuart N. Clarke]

‘The word "time" split its husk; poured its riches over him; and from his lips fell like shells, like shavings from a plane, without his making them, hard, white, imperishable words, and flew to attach themselves to their places in an ode to Time’

We saw the 2 types of shell; it would have been good to have seen 2 types of plane, and “shavings from a plane”.  I can’t remember when I last saw “shavings from a plane” in real life.  It takes me back to my childhood.

The images certainly made me *think* about this sentence – not just read it.

Hi, Woolfians! Each semester I have my students do a creative project, and this semester, one student turned a famous passage from Mrs. Dalloway 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:

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.

Be well!
Erin
