Literary Encyclopedia: Stream of consciousness Stream of consciousness writing was developed in the early decades of the twentieth century when writers became interested in finding ways of laying open for readers’ inspection, in a way impossible in real life, the imagined inner lives of their fictional characters. The term “stream of consciousness” has become common in literary criticism and has a certain intuitive appeal, since it helps to identify in a rather general way what is was that writers were aiming to achieve in their fiction. Narrated stream of consciousness is most often composed of a variety of sentence types including psycho-narration (the narrative report of characters’ psychological states) and free indirect style. www.literaryencyclopedia.com /php/stopics.php?rec=true&UID=1062   (662 words)

'The Stream of Consciousness - Films of Resnais' by Haim Callev Considering the importance of a cinematic representation of stream of consciousness as an alternative both to its literary expression and to its scientific exploration, a systematic study of its application in these films is of utmost importance. In his remarkable study of the stream of consciousness in the modern novel, Robert Humphrey describes some of the difficulties, which we also share, in using the term 'stream of consciousness'. The importance of a cinematic representation of stream of consciousness is that an entirely different set of concrete medial materials is available for its exploration. www.tau.ac.il /~haim/s-chaptr.htm   (6492 words)

Dr. Susan Blackmore If we think in terms of the stream of consciousness we are forced to wonder what was in the stream when the light seemed to be in the middle - before the second light came on. We seem forced to distinguish between conscious and unconscious processing; between representations that are 'in' the stream of consciousness and those that are 'outside' it. The question remains; the experiences in the stream of consciousness are those that are available to the rest of the system. www.susanblackmore.co.uk /Articles/jcs02.htm   (6693 words)

A note on "stream of consciousness" developer.* Blogs A truly unending stream of consciousness is I think to be preferred to a partial consciousness, blocked as it were by great whacking Hoover dams of guilt and fear. "Why, this stream of consciousness is not writing" is a favored plaint of that sort of writing teacher who has to think before compounding a sentence and sets his face against what he considers disorganization...which is indeed disorganization in some cases, and in others, an organization he hasn't seen. This is because "stream of consciousness" is preferable to passing out in the back of the class, or on drugs in an alley. www.developerdotstar.com /community/node/130   (553 words)

P S Y C H E: Dainton Symposia In investigating the basic structures of our streams of consciousness we are probing the general framework within which all of us live out our conscious lives, and it may well be that this framework has features which only phenomenology can reveal. The unity of consciousness has synchronic and diachronic aspects, and although both aspects are to be found in any ordinary stretch of experience, it helps (at least initially) to consider them separately. Conscious beings come in very different physical forms, and beings with different physical constitutions will very likely have very different kinds of experience (try to imagine what it might be like to be a star-nosed mole, which senses its surroundings in a highly discerning way using the twenty-two tentacle-like flanges of its hand-like nose). psyche.cs.monash.edu.au /symposia/dainton/prec.html   (14293 words)

Stream of Consciousness Therefore, the term stream of consciousness may be too general when describing Woolf’s work. In Erich Auerbach’s influential essay, "The Brown Stocking," Virginia Woolf’s distinguishing technical features of stream of consciousness are examined in relation to devices used by many contemporary writers. The important aspect to remember regarding the uniqueness of Woolf’s representation of consciousness is that "insignificant external occurrence releases ideas and chains of ideas which cut loose from the present of the external occurrence and range freely through the depths of time" (Auerbach 45-50). www.uah.edu /woolf/stream.html   (503 words)

James on Stream of Consciousness Vague and hazy as such an account of our stream of consciousness may be, it is at least secure from positive error and free from admixture of conjecture or hypothesis. There is a stream, a succession of states, or waves, or fields (or of whatever you please to call them), of knowledge, of feeling, of desire, of deliberation, etc., that constantly pass and repass, and that constitute our inner life. So far as we class the states or fields of consciousness, write down their several natures, analyze their contents into elements, or trace their habits of succession, we are on the descriptive or analytic level. www.des.emory.edu /mfp/tt2.html   (1379 words)

Stream of Consciousness? Uprooting "stream of consciousness" from its literary origins, consider the consciousness of a philosophically minded information systems engineer. Mrs Dalloway is the story of one day in the life of the heroine in which the impingement of past on present consciousness enables her to tell the whole of Mrs Dalloway's past by naturally developing flashbacks within consciousness. The consciousness of a novelist seems a far remove from this experience. www.rbjones.com /rbjpub/www/rbj001.htm   (586 words)

Full text and plot summary of Ulysses by James Joyce It brings together anecdotes, journalistic writing, drama, questionnaire, bawdy episodes, stream of consciousness writing, arachaisms, neologisms and - surprisingly - more. Ulysses is usually deemed to be Joyce’s greatest achievement, and it is the zenith of modernist writing in the novel form but is barely recognizable as a novel or as any other kind of writing. It was serialized first in the Little Review in 1918 and published first in Paris in 1922, although its censorship for obscenity in America and England were not lifted until the mid-1930s. www.bibliomania.com /0/0/29/61   (337 words)

THE HIGH HAT STATIC: Adult Swim in the Stream of Consciousness There’s the episode of “Sealab 2021” that consists of nothing but a scene-for-scene showing of an old episode of the action cartoon from the ’60s on which the show is based; it goes on and on and on, as the audience waits for the joke that (almost) never comes. There’s the episode of “Aqua Teen Hunger Force” where a robot claiming to be the Spirit of Christmas tells a story so long, pointless and confused that even the other characters on the show get bored and leave. Amongst fans of “The Simpsons” there has arisen in recent years a dispute as contentious and as violent as any religious schism. www.thehighhat.com /Static/005/adult_swim.html   (337 words)

P S Y C H E: Dainton Symposia In investigating the basic structures of our streams of consciousness we are probing the general framework within which all of us live out our conscious lives, and it may well be that this framework has features which only phenomenology can reveal. To bring the synchronic aspect to the fore, focus your attention on two enduring parts of your current stream of consciousness - a visual experience and a bodily sensation, a visual experience and a sound - it doesn't matter, provided the parts you choose are not too fleeting to introspect for a short while. Conscious beings come in very different physical forms, and beings with different physical constitutions will very likely have very different kinds of experience (try to imagine what it might be like to be a star-nosed mole, which senses its surroundings in a highly discerning way using the twenty-two tentacle-like flanges of its hand-like nose). psyche.cs.monash.edu.au /symposia/dainton/prec.html   (337 words)
