Book Description

Virginia Woolf and the Arts, a provocative collection of papers culled from the sixth annual conference on Virginia Woolf at Clemson University, explores new ground in Woolf studies. Papers in this volume cover diverse topics, allowing readers to go behind the lens with the directors of the award-winning Woolf documentary "The War Within" as well as to explore Woolf's connections to other artists such as Carrington, Rebecca West, and Ethel Smyth. Contributors also describe three exciting Virginia Woolf projects on CD-ROM, challenge Julia Kristeva's version of Woolf, examine Woolf's outrageous consumer politics, study her legacy to contemporary women playwrights, discuss connections between Woolf and chaos theory, explore Woolf's mysticism, and examine virtual space in "Between the Acts". These and other essays in the volume combine to make "Virginia Woolf and the Arts" important for any serious Woolf scholar.

Book Description

This third volume of "Woolf Studies Annual" offers a rich collection of new work on Virginia Woolf, up-to-date resources for scholars, and several reviews of recent and not-so-recent books. Contributors include Susan Dick's transcription of and introduction to "The Cook", a fictionalized portrait of Sophie Farrell, the Stephen family cook. David Bradshaw's research in the archives of For Intellectual Liberty (FIL) and other artists' organizations for civil liberties in the 1930s reveals that Woolf was perhaps the most politically radical of all her peers. Molly Hoff continues her exploration of the classical matrix of "Mrs. Dalloway", Harriet Blodgett argues for a more formalist approach to food as a symbol in Woolf's novels, and Jean Long examines Woolf's relations to Charlotte Brontë. Diana Swanson describes the "Antigone complex" in "The Years", and Georgia Johnston reassesses issues of class in"Between the Acts". James Haule, a co-compiler of the Complete Concordance to the Novels of Virginia Woolf, offers his suggestions on how such a tool might be used, and the "Guide to Collections" provides up-to-date information on holdings and access requirements for libraries with significant Bloomsbury manuscripts in the U.K., the U.S., and Canada. Vara Neverow and Merry Pawlowski's "Preliminary Bibliographic Guide to the Footnotes of "Three Guineas" is a valuable new resource for researchers. There are also reviews of new books by Claire Kahane, Bonnie Kime Scott, Laura Doyle, and others. "Woolf Studies Annual" is an essential asset for anyone working on Woolf.
