• W155082810 abstract "Hellenism and in the Work of Virginia Woolf. Theodore Koulouris (Farnham, UK: Ashgate, 2011) x + 242pp. Hellenism and in the Work of Virginia Woolf is the first book-length study of by a scholar who is a native speaker as well as a student of ancient Greek. argument is focused on holograph Notebook (1907-09), which contains notes on reading of Homer, Plato, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes, Juvenal and Virgil. Koulouris chooses the term as a way to distinguish response from the idealized Greece suggested by Hellenism, and to suggest the originality and complexity of the question he investigates: the distillation of own understanding of canonical Greek texts, filtered through an intricate network of gendered socio-cultural and political structures, into what I shall be referring to as 'the poetics of loss' (8). While acknowledging the history of Greek studies in Victorian Britain, and the association of loss with psychoanalysis, he chooses to concentrate on the complexity of position as a modernist and an intellectual at the turn of the twentieth century. Her Greek studies fostered a language in which she mourned not only the death of family members but the loss of educational opportunities and the carnage of two world wars, so that mourning became part of identity as a woman of letters. Koulouris acknowledges theories of the modernist subject in the notes, while concentrating the body of his argument on a reading of work in an historical context. book studies what might be called subject position, that he prefers to call an aesthetic of Greekness somewhere between life and text (17). argument proceeds on several fronts. In Part I, Loss in the Making, Koulouris examines relationship to parents and to Thoby, and notes that Greek studies began after the deaths of mother and of Stella. After several of study knowledge of Greek made social position problematic. He makes good use of the anecdote from Moments of Being in which Woolf recalls being escorted by George Duckworth to a dinner with Lady Carnarvon, where discourse on Plato and the emotions brought the conversation and the evening to a halt. Koulouris writes of her justified impatience to express herself in a discipline with which she had been occupying herself for five years (167). As a result she was neither the properly silent Victorian young woman, nor did she have the credentials to enter a profession. hegemony of British Hellenism in the church as well as the university diffused it throughout British culture, where it often served as a kind of congratulatory self-recognition. Although position was not unlike that of several of female characters, in that she endured the loss of educational opportunities justified by the use of Greek to refuse women admission to the university, as an artist she transformed that position. Woolf's informal study of Greek was a constitutive factor in the crystallization of a poetics of 'loss,' a poetics in which Greek is both, and at the same time, an agent of (sociocultural) exclusion and an instrument of textual and intellectual fulfillment (99). This is the thesis of Koulouris' book. Part II, Chapter three, The Greekness between Life and Text, addresses the question, how was Woolf able to transform nineteenth-century Hellenism into the poetics of ? He first explores problematic relationship to members of the Bloomsbury group, and identifies the tension that underlay relationship with the men who had been trained at Cambridge as epistemological. That is, although Koulouris sides with Roger Poole in defending powers of mind, he sees occasional display of elitism (her refusal on occasion to translate) as acceptance of Victorian patterns of thought at the same time as she worked to subvert them. …" @default.
