International Conference on Joyce and Woolf at Milan University
Seventy years after their death in 1941, we wish to explore and assess
the inheritance of such towering figures of modernity and modernism as
Woolf and Joyce, whose aesthetic stance and dialogue, however
wary their personal relationship and reciprocal opinion, has affected
the destiny of literature in English in unforeseen and irreversible
ways.
We are aware the extension of the problem is huge, and that a
one-and-a-half day conference may in no way cover it entirely; but we
have selected areas of investigation which we believe trigger the most
challenging aspects of the Woolf/Joyce presence in today?s literary
culture and culture tout court.
