Virginia Woolf (a famous poet) once wrote, "...poetry is delicious; the best prose is that which is most full of poetry."
5. What do you think Virginia Woolf means by this statement?

Virginia Woolf used the stream of consciousness technique Stream of consciousness is a style or technique of writing that uses the natural flow of a character's extended thought process, often by incorporating sensory impressions, incomplete ideas, unusual syntax, and rough grammar. She wanted to write different than the women before her. She knew what made a piece of writing worthwhile to read and she was able to let others know how difficult it was for her to write in this time period. She was a feminist and that means that she believes that women should have the same rights - and same opportunities and same PAY as men for writing and for living their lives. She wrote to encourage women and to help them realize that they should have the confidence to write. Prose was what she stated she had no time for - that is just the normal way to work up to writing sentences that make a paragraph. She instead wanted it to be poetic and artistic. She wanted to use rhyme and scheme, patterns from poetry such as lines, stanzas, meter, stress, patterns, and rhythm. Often writing a poem can be more expressive than prose due to the feeling you can get when you get into the rhythm of the words. Prose was more of writings that were like everyday conversations. Poetry was artistic and creative.

325to have me filch it?

exit emilia

emilia exits.

i will in cassio’s lodging lose this napkin

and let him find it. trifles light as air

are to the jealous confirmations strong

as proofs of holy writ. this may do something.

335the moor already changes with my poison.

dangerous conceits are in their natures poisons

which at the first are scarce found to distaste,

but with a little act upon the blood

burn like the mines of sulfur.

i’ll leave this handkerchief at cassio’s house and let him find it.to a jealous man, a meaningless little thing like this looks like absolute proof. this handkerchief may be useful to me. the moor’s mind has already become infected with my poisonous suggestions. ideas can be like poisons. at first they hardly even taste bad, but once they get into your blood they start burning like hot lava.

enter othello

othello enters.

    i did say so.

340look, where he comes. not poppy nor mandragora

nor all the drowsy syrups of the world,

shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep

which thou owedst yesterday.

here he comes. no drugs or sleeping pills will ever give you the restful sleep that you had last night.

othello

    ha! ha! false to me?

othello

argh! she’s cheating on me?

iago

why, how now, general? no more of that.

iago

oh, general, , no more of that!
