Expression is Not Free :: Writing Writers
Expression is Not FreeIt is said that writers closure is the inability to write because of a loss in creative sentiment about a given subject. It is entirely possible that this term screwing be attributed to other aspects of theme and life in general it is this neighborhood I impart explore.Virginia Woolf explains the angel in her house as the sublimate spirit that would come between her and her paper when writing reviews about men. You ar writing about a book that has been written by a man. Be sympathetic, be tender, flatter, deceive, use all these humanities of our sex. She was able to discharge this angel because of a trust fund left to her by family, which paying her a handsome living. These payments liberated her from the need to use charm and the arts of her sex to provide sustenance and lifestyle maintenance. This mentality was widely held during her c areer. As society changed, it paved the way for other female writers to be slight encumbered by gender, and appreci ated for their works. I wonder how the writings of Joan Didion would get to been beared fifty years earlier during the start of Woolfs career. Would she posses the same confidence in her work?Orwell writes What I defecate most wonted to do throughout the last ten years is to make political writing in to an art. One can write nothing readable unless mavin constantly struggles to efface ones own personality. Society dictates what is and is not readable, what is and is not acceptable, what is judge and what are success and or failure. We are all shaped and trap by the popular opinions of our time. We are not free to indulge in art, literature, or in time our daily lives with out the watchful eye of societys scrutiny. It is necessity to test these opinions in order for society to grow up and accept change. From a small child we are sculpted by our experiences. Our opinions are formed by exposure and hard lessons learned. We are dependant upon others and this dependance is paid for with sacrifice in order to for fill the expectations of our benefactors. Many will never be liberated by wealth, fame, or status, and thus even in adulthood we are required to meet standards and expectations or take the beat of societys drum. Yet others are shackled and restricted by wealth, requiring that they have social responsibilities and requirements of class structure to be met.
