Heroine Worship: Virginia Woolf, The Voyage In
Claudia Roth Pierpont s discussion of the author as part of the New York Times Heroine Worship section.
http://www.nytimes.com/specials/magazine4/articles/woolf.html

Extractions: he literary critic Queenie Leavis, who had been born into the British lower middle class and reared three children while writing and editing and teaching, thought Virginia Woolf a preposterous representative of real women's lives: "There is no reason to suppose Mrs. Woolf would know which end of the cradle to stir." Yet no one was more aware of the price of unworldliness than Virginia Woolf. Her imaginative voyages into the waveringly lighted depths of "Mrs. Dalloway" and "To the Lighthouse" were partly owed to a freedom from the literal daily need of voyaging out - to the shop or the office or even the nursery. Her husband, Leonard Woolf, believed that without the aid of her inheritance his wife would probably not have written a novel at all. Credit: The New York Times For money guaranteed not just time but intellectual liberty. "I'm the only woman in England free to write what I like," she exulted in her diary in 1925, after the publication of "Mrs. Dalloway" by the Hogarth Press, which she and Leonard had set up to free her from the demands of publishers and editors. What she liked to write turned out to be, of course, books that gave voice to much that had gone unheard in the previous history of writing things down: the dartings and weavings of the human mind in the fleet elaborations of thought itself.

The Mark On The Wall
E-text. Under copyright restrictions this cannot be distributed or downloaded.
http://www.english.upenn.edu/~jenglish/English104/woolf1.html

Extractions: But after life. The slow pulling down of thick green stalks so that the cup of the flower, as it turns over, deluges one with purple and red light. Why, after all, should one not be born there as one is born here, helpless, speechless, unable to focus one's eyesight, groping at the roots of the grass, at the toes of the Giants ? As for saying which are trees, and which are men and women, or whether there are such things, that one won't be in a condition to do for fifty years or so. There will be nothing but spaces of light and dark, intersected by thick stalks, and rather higher up perhaps, rose-shaped blots of an indistinct colour - dim pinks and blues - which will, as time goes on, become more definite, become - I don't know what.... And yet the mark on the wall is not a hole at all. It may even be caused by some round black substance, such as a small rose leaf, left over from the summer, and 1, not being a very vigilant housekeeper- look at the dust on the mantelpiece, for example, the dust which, so they say, buried Troy three times over, only fragments of pots utterly refusing annihilation, as one can believe. I must jump up and see for myself what that mark on the wall really is - a nail, a rose-leaf, a crack in the wood?
Lady In The Looking-Glass
E-text.
http://www.english.upenn.edu/~jenglish/English104/woolf2.html

Extractions: People should not leave looking-glasses hanging in their rooms any more than they should leave open cheque books or letters confessing some hideous crime. One could not help looking, that summer afternoon, in the long glass that hung outside in the hall. Chance had so arranged it. From the depths of the sofa in the drawing-room one could see reflected in the Italian glass not only the marble-topped table opposite, but a stretch of the garden beyond. One could see a long grass path leading between banks of tall flowers until, slicing off an angle, the gold rim cut it off. But, outside, the looking-glass reflected the hall table, the sun-flowers, the garden path so accurately and so fixedly that they seemed held there in their reality unescapably. It was a strange contrast all changing here, all stillness there. One could not help looking from one to the other. Meanwhile, since all the doors and windows were open inthe heat, there was a perpetual sighing and ceasing sound, the voice of the transient and the perishing, it seemed, coming and going like human breath, while in the looking-glass things had ceased to breathe and lay still in the trance of immortality. Suddenly these reflections were ended violently and yet without a sound. A large black form loomed into the looking-glass; blotted out everything, strewed the table with a packet of marble tablets veined with pink and grey, and was gone. But the picture was entirely altered. For the moment it was unrecognisable and irrational and entirely out of focus. One could not relate these tablets to any human purpose. And then by degrees some logical process set to work on them and began ordering and arranging them and bringing them into the fold of common experience. One realised at last that they were merely letters. The man had brought the post.

http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Virginia_Woolf

Extractions: Virginia Woolf Virginia Woolf (née Stephen) (January 25, 1882 – March 28, 1941) was a British author who is considered to be one of the foremost figures of both Modernism and feminism in the twentieth century. Woolf is considered one of the most psychological of all the Modernists; many of her later novels take place entirely within her characters' heads, focusing exclusively on the literary technique known as stream-of-consciousness, which presents not an objective narration, but attempts to replicate the thoughts which shape the character's mind. Although she publicly despised James Joyce , her place in literary modernism resembles his more than any other contemporary writer. Like Joyce, Woolf was endlessly experimental in her literary technique, while each work she created had a style all its own, from the traditional narrative of Orlando to the high abstraction of The Waves. Woolf is one of the most enduringly popular of all the Modernists. While she liked to experiment with technique, she never abandoned a passionate commitment to storytelling. While some of the most intricately crafted stories in the literature, Woolf's works remain eminently accessible, unlike some of the other Modernists whom she disliked. Her biography betrays the best and worst in human relations. Even in taking her own life she wrote lovingly and affectionately to her husband and sister, expressing concern for them more than for her own life. How tragic is the loss of a sensitive woman and towering talent, arising at least in part from abuse and the shameful sexual deviancy of her half brothers.
Virginia Woolf's Orlando: The Book As Critic
Conference paper by Kelly Tetterton which argues that the physical form that Orlando appears in acts as pre-critical commentary on the text within. Book cover artwork.
http://www.tetterton.net/orlando/orlando95_talk.html

Extractions: The Book as Critic by Kelly Tetterton A paper presented to The Fifth Annual Virginia Woolf Conference at Otterbein College, June 18, 1995 As well-seasoned critics and readers, we are often accustomed to reading a text against itself, and Virginia Woolf's Orlando invites us to do so quite explicitly. The text asks us to reconsider the very notions of literature and sexuality that it itself seems so invested in. So far so good. But we are not accustomed to looking at the critical relationship between the physical book and the text we read, and in our failure to do so, we risk acquiescence to the reading of that text as it's been handed to us. I want to focus on Woolf's Orlando for several reasons: it is itself a complicated text to read, open to many interpretations, and publishers have felt quite free to exploit those various interpretations visually on the covers of the book; and because Woolf herself is a well-known author whose critical acceptance has always been inflected by her gender, and that too has spilled over onto the book's covers. Orlando the book has been packaged in distinctive ways throughout this century, and that packaging has recapitulated certain attitudes towards the text that have been cemented into potential blockades against other readings.

It's quick and easy, click here Please submit a quiz here I have read many other Virginia Woolf works, and I can safely say this is the most conventional, which is not surprising, considering it is her first novel, published in 1915 when the author was 33 years old. Considering her other novels, it is perhaps not spectacular, but when compared to other authors' works, it is easy to see what a literary genius Woolf truly is. (I only hope my first attempt is as brilliant). The story is a real oneand I stress the word real. This is no conventional coming-of-age story; the heroine faces obstacles unique to her situation, and the love story is neither contrived nor unnatural. Thus the reader becomes a voyeur, looking through a window at people we feel must be living, breathing souls. This is part of Woolf's brilliance.

http://www.utoronto.ca/IVWS/

Extractions: Over 50 years after her death, the writings of Virginia Woolf are a source of continuing power and ever-increasing influence. Recognized in her own time and country as one of the most significant of the Modernists, Woolf has achieved a stature, in the late twentieth century, of international prominence. Admired first in the era of New Criticism as one of the superb formalist writers of fiction, Woolf's equal relevance to historical and materialist issues became acknowledged largely because of the feminist critics of the 70s and 80s. In the nineties, Woolf scholarship has expanded to include a great variety of interests: historical and cultural studies; feminist and gender studies; postcolonial studies; language and genre studies; and studies with a multitude of other foci such as influence and intertextuality, global reception, constructions of modernism and postmodernism, to name but a few. In recent years, one of the most productive fields of inquiry has involved scholarly work on original manuscripts and variant editions. Despite the ever-growing catalogue of writers in the large corpus of English literature, the writings of Virginia Woolf give every evidence of providing a continuing meeting place for scholars and readers around the world. The International Virginia Woolf Society is devoted to encouraging and facilitating the scholarly study of, critical attention to, and general interest in, the work and career ofVirginia Woolf, and to facilitate ways in which all people interested in her writingsscholars, critics, teachers, students, and common readersmay learn from one another, meet together, contact each other, and help one another.
