“But, you may say, we asked you to speak about women and fiction-what has that got to do with a room of one's own?”

Can you think of any other important “buts” in women’s writing?
Do you agree with my analysis? Let me know what you think. I’d love to hear from you.
Brilliant, as usual; thank you so much, Dr. Cox. I do have a book within me to write and I do have the time, money and space to write it. All that is missing is the confidence and the commitment. I believe I owe it to Virginia Woolfe to write my book without further procrastination.
So much easier said than done! - But, exactly, confidence and commitment. And not beating yourself up for what you haven't done yet.
Thank you. Octavia
Thank you, I understand A Room of One's Own more deeply now. My first exposure to Virginia Woolf was To the Lighthouse, which left me anxious to read more of her novels. But I couldn't stay engaged with either Orlando or The Waves. So I turned to her essays and maybe I've read them all. What a unique writer she was!
I find Woolf's analysis of other writers so brilliant and insightful. She's wonderful at finding the nub, or crux, or heart of the matter, and pinpointing it so eloquently. I plan to publish a video soon on Woolf's analysis of the Brontës (well, of Charlotte's Jane Eyre and Emily's Wuthering Heights - sadly not Anne's novels), which I hope you will also find interesting. Thanks for watching my videos - it's much appreciated.
And with regard to Orlando and The Waves, I think it helps (certainly it did for me) if you completely dispense with the idea of them as novels. I find that they don't offer me what I want from a 'novel'. So instead I think of them as literary experiments in which Woolf plays with the very notion of narrative and story-telling. I find that really helps me to engage with them. (One can read The Waves, for instance, as an attempt to convey the multiplicitous aspects of one person through six voices.)
In Virginia Woolf's hand, those "buts" (and the addressing of a collective) pays the audience the supreme complement of including us in those whose intelligence and quickness of mind are equal to Virginia Woolf's own. Heady, high praise.
Great thanks 👍
you made my evening so much better. wonderful engaging video. keep it up 💖💖
Cool , Dr. , the explanation of the essay is exquisite and useful
Thank you for the intense and rich analysis, Dr Cox!
Excellent analysis, thank you!
Brilliant. Well done.
Thank you.
Thank you for this very informative lecture. I read and very much enjoyed the book and plan to re-read it soon with your thought in mind. As an aside do you know of any colleagues that have a youtube channel where they analyse the work of Proust?
Excellent!
Wonderful as always, would love to hear you work through more of the great wisdom of this work (and if you've never heard it, I highly recommend listening to Claire Bloom's reading of about an hour's worth of the text) -- thank you as always for sharing your expertise ❤️
Thanks for your message. Much appreciated. Is Claire Bloom's reading on RUclips? Octavia
I don't think so (& I think it's unfortunately out of print and hard to come by) -- I have a digital copy though, can probably send it via e-mail if you'd like :)
@@DrOctaviaCox also happy to send you a copy through the mail.
College course on RUclips ! How very cool☺️thank you ...new sub
You are very welcome! I'm glad you like my channel. Octavia
Dr.??? LOL
