To the Lighthouse
To the Lighthouse is at once a vivid impressionistic depiction of a family holiday, and a meditation on marriage, on parenthood and childhood, on grief, tyranny and bitterness. For years now the Ramsays have spent every summer in their holiday home in Scotland, and they expect these summers will go on forever; but as the First World War looms, the integrity of family and society will be fatally challenged. With a psychologically introspective mode, the use of memory, reminiscence and shifting perspectives gives the novel an intimate, poetic essence, and at the time of publication in 1927 it represented an utter rejection of Victorian and Edwardian literary values.

A Room of One's Own / Three Guineas
'A landmark of feminist thought and a rhetorical masterpiece' GuardianRanging from the silent fate of Shakespeare's gifted imaginary sister to Jane Austen, Charlotte Brontë and the effects of poverty and sexual constraint on female creativity, A Room of One's Own, based on a lecture given by Woolf at Girton College, Cambridge, is one of the great feminist polemics. Published almost a decade later, Three Guineas breaks new ground in its discussion of men, militarism and women's attitudes towards war. These two pieces reveal Virginia Woolf's indomitable spirit, sophisticated wit and genius as an essayist.Edited with an Introduction and Notes by Michèle Barrett (lib)

A Room of One's Own
»Fünfhundert Pfund im Jahr und ein eigenes Zimmer« sind die Voraussetzung dafür, dass auch Frauen große Literatur produzieren können: Brillant und überaus amüsant beschreibt Virginia Woolf 1929 in ihrem Essay A Room of one's own die Lage der Frauen aus der Perspektive einer fiktiven Schriftstellerin. Hätte Shakespeare eine Schwester gehabt, ebenso begabt wie er, wie wäre es ihr ergangen? Und was brauchen Frauen, um künstlerisch tätig sein zu können? A room of one's own wurde sehr schnell zu einem der klassischen Texte der Frauenbewegung und weltweit ein großer Erfolg.

The Waves
Virginia Woolf was born in London in 1882. After her father's death in 1904 Virginia and her sister, the painter Vanessa Bell, moved to Bloomsbury and became the centre of ¿The Bloomsbury Group¿. This informal collective of artists and writers exerted a powerful influence over early twentieth-century British culture. In 1912 Virginia married Leonard Woolf, a writer and social reformer. Three years later, her first novel The Voyage Out was published, followed by Night and Day (1919) and Jacob's Room (1922). Between 1925 and 1931 Virginia Woolf produced what are now regarded as her finest masterpieces, from Mrs Dalloway (1925) to The Waves (1931). She also maintained an astonishing output of literary criticism, short fiction, journalism and biography. On 28 March 1941, a few months before the publication of her final novel, Between the Acts, Virginia Woolf committed suicide.

Cassandra Austen, kiz kardesi Jane fazla ünlenince etrafin ilgisinden korkmus, ona gelen mektuplari yakmisti. Ulysses, hafizalardan silinmeyecek bir afetti.
