Jacob’s Room
Rooms in Jacob’s Room (1922) with Karina Jakubowicz
Jacob's Room is frequently regarded as Woolf's first modernist novel, but to what degree does her sense of 'the room' lend itself to her ambitious aesthetic aims?
This lecture will explore Woolf's work at a pivotal point in her career and explain how her freshly conceived perspective on writing comes to bear on the rooms in her work. It will refer to 'A Mark on the Wall' and 'Mrs Bennett and Mrs Brown' alongside Jacob's Room to explore how Woolf's rendering of interior spaces came to bear on her literary techniques.
Live online lecture and seminar with Karina Jakubowicz.
