Blogging Woolf

A Smith College professor will teach a course on Virginia Woolf and the Bloomsbury group that offers students the opportunity to work closely with primary materials from the Smith collections.

Professor Robert Hosmer, of Smith’s English language and literature department, will teach the course, which is called “Reading and Writing with Virginia Woolf and the Bloomsbury Group.” Hosmer specializes in the works of 20th century women writers.

In the course, students will work closely with primary materials from the Mortimer Rare Book Room and the Smith College Museum of Art. The Mortimer Rare Book Room has an extensive collection of Woolf’s works.

In addition, students will be able to view the traveling exhibit, “A Room of Their Own: The Bloomsbury Artists in America Collection,” which will be at the Smith College Museum of Art April 3 to June 15.
