Download or read book Virginia Woolf s Narration and the Influence of Painting Mrs Dalloway and To the Lighthouse written by Ahmed ouagandar and published by Ahmed ouagandar. This book was released on 2020-05-19 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book explores the influence of painting on the narrative style of Virginia Woolf, especially in two of her most famous novels, "Mrs Dalloway" and "To the Lighthouse". Woolf was known for her experimental approach to storytelling. The text argues that her interest in the visual arts, particularly painting, significantly shaped her writing style. The author discusses how Woolf's use of stream of consciousness and how she weaves multiple perspectives together can be seen as analogous to the techniques used by painters to create a cohesive image out of multiple perspectives. The book also examines specific examples from the novels where Woolf's writing is directly influenced by visual art, such as her use of the symbol of the lighthouse in "To the Lighthouse". Overall, the essay demonstrates how Virginia Woolf's love of painting and visual art shaped her unique narrative style and how her writing can be read in dialogue with the visual arts of her time.

Download or read book The Petting Zoo written by Jim Carroll and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-11-04 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A moving, vividly rendered novel from the late author of The Basketball Diaries. When poet, musician, and diarist Jim Carroll died in September 2009, he was putting the finishing touches on a potent work of fiction. The Petting Zoo tells the story of Billy Wolfram, an enigmatic thirty- eight-year-old artist who has become a hot star in the late-1980s New York art scene. As the novel opens, Billy, after viewing a show of Velázquez paintings, is so humbled and awed by their spiritual power that he suffers an emotional breakdown and withdraws to his Chelsea loft. In seclusion, Billy searches for the divine spark in his own work and life. Carroll's novel moves back and forth in time to present emblematic moments from Billy's life (his Irish Catholic upbringing, his teenage escapades, his evolution as an artist and meteoric rise to fame) and sharply etched portraits of the characters who mattered most to him, including his childhood friend Denny MacAbee, now a famous rock musician; his mentor, the unforgettable art dealer Max Bernbaum; and one extraordinary black bird. Marked by Carroll's sharp wit, hallucinatory imagery, and street-smart style, The Petting Zoo is a frank, haunting examination of one artist's personal and professional struggles.

Download or read book Story Smart written by Kendall Haven and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This one-of-a-kind book reveals the secrets of a story's power to persuade, inspire, influence, and to teach. Our brains have been evolutionarily hardwired to think, to make sense, and to understand in simple—but hidden—story terms. You'll discover the Neural Story Net, the Make Sense Mandate, Motive Matching, and the Story Influence Line—and understand how these powerful concepts control listener/reader engagement, attention, and the impact your communications will exert. You'll learn that what reaches the conscious mind of your target audience is significantly different from what first reached their eyes and ears—and that you can control that internal, neural process. This easy to use guide is organized into four parts: the neuroscience of narrative; your story tools; how narratives exert influence (changing beliefs, attitudes, values, etc.); and the straightforward process of creating "Story Smart" stories.
Download or read book The Black Swan written by Nassim Nicholas Taleb and published by Random House Digital, Inc.. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the author's point of view, a black swan is an improbable event with three principal characteristics - It is unpredictable; it carries a massive impact; and, after the fact, we concoct an explanation that makes it appear less random, and more predictable, than it was. Why do we not acknowledge the phenomenon of black swans until after they occur? Part of the answer, according to Taleb, is that humans are hardwired to learn specifics when they should be focused on generalities. We concentrate on things we already know and time and time again fail to take into consideration what we don't know. We are, therefore, unable to truly estimate opportunities, too vulnerable to the impulse to simplify, narrate, and categorize, and not open enough to rewarding those who can imagine the 'impossible'.
