Beyond Mooing : Poetry, Music and Humour as Means Towards Collective Unity in Virginia Woolf's Between the Acts

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The decade leading up to the Second World War was a time in which many authors in Europe felt the need (arising out of the circumstances of the impending horror in the examples of Hitler's rise to power and the Spanish Civil War) to revisit the idea of humanity in the sense of its collectivity and unity as well as the then obvious overall lack of both. A great number of authors in Britain wrote extensively about the need to fight fascism, as a threat to humanity, and tried to conjure up solutions for world peace. While most of their writings were concerned with practical steps towards world peace, such as the defence of pacifism and disarmament (for instance in the writings of Aldous Huxley, Dimitrije Mitrinović, or E. M. Forster), this paper addressesan internal and intimate nature of the problem: that of seeking for the feeling of unity with the community (local or otherwise) within an individual, as exhibited in Virginia Woolf's Between the Acts.
