Opis

A collection of essays on the writings of Virginia Woolf, this study demonstrates how Woolf's conceptualizations of history and narrative are intimately bound up with her ways of thinking about women, writing and social and sexual relations. The author's approach has been to steer Woolf studies towards feminist historical concerns. This is demonstrated by precise, detailed configurations, setting Woolf texts alongside texts both contemporary and distant, scientific and literary, illuminating her writing in unexpected contexts.
