this thesis literally better meet her standards this time it has everything it's formalist with a dash of deconstruction it incorporates my research into the occult i can fold in a quick comparison to the end of her favorite woolf novel (dalloway) it even includes my original (REJECTED !) idea of exploring bernard and authorship as divine creativity. if she says no to it literally don't know what i'll do

#my first proposal was to focus on bernard as the character most closely intertwined with the cut narrator from the waves and the language/#subjects of the interludes but she didnt like it bc she said author as god was overdone and i was too smart for that. sigh which is fine.#the thesis im proposing is going to be about how a) the waves central tension/conflict surrounds the characters striving towards a spiritua #oneness and univocity that feels distinctly both occult and deleuzean and how the form forces the characters apart from each other and the #action while also forcing distance between the reader and the text (a series of unconventional not-quite-soliloquies directed at no one. ch #racters who are always talking but can never speak to each other) and the ending merges characters and forms to create an essential oneness #that is distinctly creative in nature (see deleuze and pure immanence)#yes a lot of these ideas have been remarked upon separately by scholars but they havent quite been married in this way . i think its really #solid
