>>24850804I've never read any of Woolf's books, but every quote I've ever seen from her is stupid and repulsive. Was she a better writer than thinker or are her quotes reflective of her work?
>>24850804How does one’s nose change so much?
>>24850804That's just the average woman way of thinking >>24850863Anglefrauding
>>24850852From the moderate amount of her work I've read, and the details about her life on wikipedia, it seems she was a rather strange and traumatised human being. Didn't seem to have very consistent beliefs about anything due to her propensity for neuroticism.
>>24850879>due to her propensity for neuroticismWell, I can at least relate to that part. I guess I'll give her a shot.
>>24850879she similarly waffled on ulysses, at first deriding it, upon the social softener, she melted to it soon after.i think she just had manic depression, anxiety, probably trauma. i mean the way she went was wild, not something a coward would do, rocks in your coat? walked straight into the water? that's real madness.there are a lot of influential would-be authors whose insanities are quelled by modern anti-psychotics. without a doubt. that's likely an underexplored rationale behind the dearth of generational voices, psychiatry as a whole.
>>24850889Reason is a better tool for literature than madness. Aristotle over Plato's poetic frenzy, always, because even if one is up to writing about heightened emotions, the best way to do it is by modulating language rationally to convey those emotions. Romantic improvisation is a massive grift, and I think that many authors have let themselves fall into madness to pass as geniuses inspired by the muses rather than mere wagies of language whose literary merit stems from effort. And that, at first, semiperformative madness, ends up being true madness, because they are constantly in conflict with themselves: whenever they focus and try to do things thoroughly, they think that they are not being authentic or genuine enough, which is absolutely antithetical to our human rational nature. How do they escape from that background voice? Either drug addiction, or whores, or completely giving up literature (like Rimbaud), or maxing out the performance to write disorganised garbage. None of them are good outcomes for literature, so the poète maudit is a curse for this artform. Medication in potentially good artists is nothing more than a patch to fix self induced problems in those people, and those problems also nullify them as artists. We have to bring back thoroughness, earnestness and reason to literature.
>>24850965>or completely giving up literatureah, you answered yourself.give up art in its entirety, matter of fact.what are its fruits except the supposed material justification for rape, murder, ritualistic child sacrifice, that's all we'd have to show god when he arrives. "oh, but look, we created some rag with a depiction of rape, murder, and ritualistic child sacrifice on it!" or "oh, we shredded a lamb's flesh and scribbled symbols on it about raping, murder, and ritualistic child sacrifice!"fuck art, and all that it has "given" us.i'm of the opinion that emotion hasn't been properly unpacked by most, that it *is* logic, but fast logic, the logic of our ancestors, the shape of thought for most life on this planet. it's damning that we believe we're the only ones to practice it, and even more to give up our lives by the millions to the new hideous god we've named Logicwere you in the recognitions thread, btw?

>>24851033I know the degenerate lesbianism might lead you to thinking that, but she was actually quite anti-semetic despite marrying a jew for some reason.
>>248510632/2Just a weird bitch as previously stated.
>>24850863Ligament laxity with age
>>24850804her writing sucks and she was an antisemite, which is betokens a retarded culture
tf did this JIDF bot just write?
>>24850852She was a better writer than thinker, yes, that’s a great way to describe it.I don’t like her as a personality much, I do think she comes off very snobbish and offputting, but she’s a great stylist and one of the best modernist novelists. I liked To The Lighthouse, and Ms. Dalloway.
>>24851193Her quotes are from her books though. Picrel is not her speech, it's her writing.
>>24850879she's just like me>>24851193>I liked To The Lighthouse, and Ms. Dalloway.read Orlando next

>>24850804>who's afraid of virginia woolfWell, it sounds like Virginia is afraid of Virginia.
>>24850965Generally speaking I agree with you, artistry and skill come first. But then the greatest achievements in art undoubtedly require something like superhuman inspiration and sometimes the pressures involved in that can result in the typically crazy, narcissistic or insecure artist's personality. Obviously if you don't have the inspiration then trying to force yourself to act that way is just retarded.
>>24851203Isnt her schtick consciouaness stream? This leads to contradiction and multiple voices
She wasn't a misogynist nor was she a misandristShe was a misanthrope. All great artists eventually fall to the throws of it sometimes because humans are gross soulless golems who want to feast on your entrails and step on you at every opportunity. Being a woman only makes this fact of life even worst as there are even more ways other humans (both male and female) can rip you apart and humiliate you. Every single one of the female greats had some degree of misanthropy or evident mental illness, most of the times both.
>>24850804Aren't half of these quotes from her personal diary? I can forgive it for not being completely coherent.
>>24850804>can't appreciate virtue, heroism, and honornot helping the stereotype
Yes, Virginia, There is a Patriarchy.
both are right. Men and young boys are both retarded for different reasons
>>24852184that says young women you illiterate fuck
More like Virginia Woof.
>>24850804the first twitter egirl with birth control behavior
>>24850852she resembles an old teacher of mine kind of but also what I assume a boorish librarian would act like.
>>24851645I actually know that feeling. I've penned five works and am just a cauldron of hate and self-doubt.
>>24850852The quotes are entirely representative. She's quite literally the most overrated writer of all of human history. Three Guineas would be a tombstone over anyone's capacity for thought. She was right to drown herself, only she defiled the Ouse by fouling it with her carcass.
>>24850804horrible woman
They wanna be men so bad
>>24850863
she was a FUCKING CRAZY BITCH because she CHANGED HER MIND. absolute cuckoo bipolar 3D woman. In comparison I am completely mentally healthy, for example i've watched anime since i was 14 and now i'm 40 and still love it so so SO MUCH (◠‿◠) this is what's called NOT BEING NEVROTIC desu :smug:
>>24855860Ok femanon I hear you, but I just want you to know that you don't really help dispel the "hysterical woman" stereotype when you make hysterical posts like this
>>24855860Wow that sounds horrible. Praying for you anon.
>>24850804BPD physiognomy, it's all in her face.black and white, back and forth, that's pretty much what they do.
>>24852087>All great artists eventually fall to the throws of itIt sure is a doggy-dog world out there.
>>24850804>This bitch could not make her mind up about anything.top quote was while ragging it, bottom quote was morning after having her wrists held under her thighs for *extended* pussy licking until she screamed. Eh, I'd have probably fucked her. But didn't she commit suicide? Bipolar or some shit? Would explain a lot including these quotes.
