Virginia Woolf and Her Influences presents papers from the Seventh
Annual Conference on Virginia Woolf at Plymouth State College in
New Hampshire June 12-15, 1997. These papers fall under the theme
of 'the influence of something upon somebody' as it arises
throughout Woolf's work. The careful arrangement of the essays
carries them over from the context of the conference to provide a
range of critical and expanded approaches to Woolf's writing under
the groupings of Reading/Writing the Individual, Historical
Positionings, Creative Revolutions, and Theoretical Foray. Each
part concludes with a section of 'Teachings' that recognizes the
emphasis that Woolf placed on education and its impact on
constructions of the body, on constructions of history, and on art
and its interpretations. The editors' main goal is to expand the
understanding of Woolf so that her creativity and ideas can be
appreciated from not only the traditional perspective, but modern,
varied perspectives as well.
From the destruction of Sodom to the selling of Gay Street, urban
life and homosexuality have been made inseparable in Western
culture. Abraham looks at the evolution of this symbiotic
relationship over the past two centuries, tracing how homosexuals
have become model citizens of the modern city and avatars of the
urban.
