| Women in the Milieu of Leonard and Virginia Woolf:
Peace, Politics, and Education. Edited by Wayne K. Chapman and Janet
M. Manson.
This book is a valuable addition to scholarship on Bloomsbury, the history of women in Britain, and the work of Leonard and Virginia Woolf. It protrays an era and illuminates the work of a number of famous writers by examining less well-known lives and works that were part of the adaptive complex, or milieu. Several essays and appendices contribute significantly to our understanding of the extent the Woolfs collaborated with each other and with others. Beside the literary histories of S.P. Rosenbaum, this collection of original essays will be essential reading for students of Bloomsbury and women's history. |
The Hours: The British Museum Manuscript of Mrs.
Dalloway
Edited by Helen M. Wussow
A transcription of the three holograph notebooks in the British Library,
the volume includes an introduction and appendixes that transcribe additional
relevant material from the Berg collection.
—S. P. Rosenbaum, editor Virginia Woolf's Women and Fiction:
The Manuscript Versions of A Room of One's Own
Virginia Woolf's "Jacob's Room": The Holograph
Draft
Edited by Edward L. Bishop
Based on the holograph manuscrpt in the Henry W. and Albert A. Berg
Collection of English and American Literature at the New York Public library,
this transcription follows the original three-volume manuscript page for
page and line for line, giving the reader a sense of how Jacob's Room
was truly a work in progress. Written between 1920 and 1922, Jacob's
Room was a literary experiment for Woolf, leaving behind the traditional
forms of her previous novels, The Voyage Out and Night and Day.
Included
in Bishop's text are the short sketches that Virginia Woolf included in
volume II of the manuscript. Additionally, spelling and punctuation has
not been corrected or normalized to maintain continuity with the original
manuscript.
