This book gives comprehensive coverage of Woolf's reception across
Europe with contributions from leading international critics and
translators.The intellectual scope and cultural impact of British
writers cannot be assessed without reference to their European
'fortunes'. These essays, prepared by an international team of
scholars, critics and translators, record the ways in which
Virginia Woolf has been translated, evaluated and emulated in
different national and linguistic areas of Europe.Diverse as her
reception has been, as analyst of consciousness, as a decadent
(censored and banned), as stylistic innovator of Modernism, as
crusading feminist and socialist, and as a model for other writers,
she has emerged as one of the foremost writers and principal icons
of the century.Our knowledge of British and Irish authors is
incomplete and inadequate without an understanding of the
perspectives of other nations on them. Each volume examines the
ways authors have been translated, published, distributed, read,
reviewed and discussed in Europe. In doing so, it throws light not
only on the specific strands of intellectual and cultural history
but also on the processes involved in the dissemination of ideas
and texts.
