At this time I am thinking about Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway and Michael Cunningham's The Hours in both novel and film forms. The question is: How can we build a "bridge" between these two novels?Paulahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02986452768972141618noreply@blogger.comBlogger11100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10683731.post-1107812136430040842005-02-07T13:24:00.000-08:002005-02-23T13:58:21.730-08:00What seems always on my mind these days is a particular workshop entitled "Bridging the Gap." The workshop is just that--a workshop and it happens in April. Participants and I will endeavor to draw connections between Virginia Woolf's <em>Mrs. Dalloway</em> and Michael Cunningham's <em>The Hours</em>. We will view two films Mrs. Dalloway (1997) and The Hours (2003) and will discuss them in tandem with exerpts from the novel and other readings. Participants can expect to keep a writing folder in which they will record images, diagrams, thoughts, and streams of consciousness. The objective of this exercise is to produce an essay in which a bridge is built between the two works.<br /><br />By using the lens of relationship(s) we may be able to build a "bridge" between the two works; at the very least gain a greater appreciation of what Woolf and Cunningham have given us.<br /><br />I look forward to meeting and working with the participants of "Bridging the Gap."<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10683731-110781213643004084?l=pitbullpen.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Paulahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02986452768972141618noreply@blogger.com9
