"Barbara Hofland As A Romantic-Era Provincial Poet", Stephen C. Behrendt Oct 2013

"Barbara Hofland As A Romantic-Era Provincial Poet", Stephen C. Behrendt

Stephen C Behrendt

Best remembered as a prolific author of prose for younger readers, the Sheffield author Barbara Hofland (1770-1844) also wrote and published poetry for adults throughout her career, work that illustrates the distinctive circumstances and challenges of the “provincial” writer attempting to negotiate in print both a conventional “literary” output and a complex fabric of local and occasional referentiality. Encouraged in Sheffield by James Montgomery, Hofland explored events, personages and poetic genres in ways that illuminate how Romantic-era provincial poets sought to generate and engage paying readerships by appealing in part to those readers’ fondness for the familiar, the recognizable, and …

The important identity of a responsible media is playing an unbiased role in reporting a matter without giving unnecessary hype to attract the attention of the gullible public with the object of making money and money only.After reporting properly the media can educate the public to form their own opinion in the matters of public interest.

Intimacy In Isolation And The Amplitude Of Reality: Virginia Woolf’S Tense Intimacies, Rebecca Thorndike-Breeze

Rebecca Thorndike-Breeze

Virginia Woolf identifies four “dimensions” of human life: “I mean: I: & the not I: & the outer & the inner” (Diary 4: 353). The permeability of these dimensions is at the core of Woolf’s experiments in “re-form[ing]” the novel (Diary 1: 356). Woolf’s novels represent the simultaneously unavoidable isolation and permeability of self, other, internality, and externality; Lacan would later characterize this permeability with the figure of the Mobius strip and his concept of “extimacy,” the simultaneous position of the Other external to, yet at the core of the self.
