As a paradigmatic modernist author, Virginia Woolf is celebrated
for the ways her fiction illuminates modern and contemporary life.
Woolf scholars have long debated how context whether historical,
cultural, or theoretical is to be understood in relation to her
work, and how her work produces new insights into context. Drawing
on an international field of leading and emergent specialists, this
collection provides an authoritative resource for contemporary
Woolf scholarship that explores the distinct and overlapping
dimensions of her writings. Rather than survey existing
scholarship, these essays extend Woolf studies in new directions by
examining how the author is contextualized today. The collection
also highlights connections between Woolf and key cultural,
political, and historical issues of the twentieth century such as
avant-gardism in music and art, developments in journalism and the
publishing industry, political struggles over race, gender, and
class, and the bearings of colonialism, empire, and war. A valuable
critical touchstone for researchers, the volume will also
complement graduate scholarship in English literature, literary
theory, context studies, and modernism and postcolonial studies."
