Opis

Virginia Woolf’s Unwritten Histories explores the interrelatedness of Woolf’s modernism, feminism, and her understanding of history as a site of knowledge and a writing practice that enabled her to negotiate her heritage, to find her place among the moderns as a female artist and intellectual.
