Virginia Woolf’s Three Guineas
This course was available in the past and may be presented again as part of the Open Enrollment curriculum.
In this follow up to her classic A Room of One's Own, Woolf's "Three Guineas" offers an ahead-of-its-time account of the impact of ideals of masculinity on society, by way of pondering how women might contribute to the prevention of war. Woolf originally conceived it to be part of a larger work that blended fiction and nonfiction. The companion course is a close reading of the fictional material, her novel The Years. These two courses are offered as companions, but can be taken separately. Course Syllabus.
