44. Virginia Woolf's Orlando: The Book As Critic
This is a conference paper which argues that the physical form that virginia woolf s Orlando appears in acts as precritical commentary on the text within.
http://www.tetterton.net/orlando/orlando95_talk.html
Virginia Woolf's Orlando
The Book as Critic
by Kelly Tetterton
A paper presented to The Fifth Annual Virginia Woolf Conference at Otterbein College, June 18, 1995
The American Paperback Covers of Virginia Woolf's Orlando
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.

Virginia Woolf, Orlando: A Biography
Virginia Woolf, one of the founders of the movement known as Modernism, is one of the most important woman writers in English. Her "stream-of-consciousness" essays and novels provide an invaluable insight into both her own life experiences and those of women at the beginning of the twentieth century. Her most famous works include Mrs. Dalloway To the Lighthouse The Waves (1931), and her most recognized work, A Room of One's Own Orlando: A Biography , published in 1928, was not Woolf's most famous work, but it was one of her most intense considerations of gender. Through the life of the extraordinary character Orlando, Woolf examines the meanings of masculinity and femininity as these definitions changed in Europe over the course of four hundred years. In tracing those changes, Woolf presents a feminist overview of history from the days of Elizabeth the First to the end of World War I. Orlando, who was modeled on Woolf's close friend Vita Sackville-West, goes from being a young man in Queen Elizabeth's court to a love affair with a Muscovite princess; from Ambassador Extraordinary to encounters, now as Lady Orlando, with the famous English writers Pope, Addison, and Swift; finally, Orlando experiences childbirth. Go to a close, critical reading of Woolf's treatment of Orlando and gender bending in Chapter four (selected annotated etext version)

Paper $22.00sp ISBN: 978-0-226-75746-9 (ISBN-10: 0-226-75746-3) Fall 1999
This is a book about "Virginia Woolf": the face that sells more postcards than any other at Britain's National Portrait Gallery, the name that Edward Albee's play linked with fear, the cultural icon so rich in meanings that it has been used to market everything from the New York Review of Books to Bass Ale. Brenda Silver analyzes Virginia Woolf's surprising visibility in both high and popular culture, showing how her image and authority have been claimed or challenged in debates about art, politics, anger, sexuality, gender, class, the canon, feminism, race, and fashion.
From Virginia Woolf's 1937 appearance on the cover of Time magazine to her current roles in theater, film, and television, Silver traces the often contradictory representations and the responses they provoke, highlighting the recurring motifs that associate Virginia Woolf with fear. By looking more closely at who is afraid and the contexts in which she is perceived to be frightening, Silver illustrates how Virginia Woolf has become the site of conflicts about cultural boundaries and legitimacy that continue to rage today.

Winner of the feature award of the International Documentary Association and the National Educational Media Network's Golden Apple. This definitive documentary was shot in England at Sissinghurst Castle with its world-famous garden, the 365-room Knole mansion, the rooms at Cambridge where Virginia gathered material for A Room of One's Own , London and Richmond, Charleston and Monk's House legendary locations in Bloomsbury history. Among those interviewed on camera are Virginia's niece and nephew, Angelica Garnett and Quentin Bell; Vita Sackville-West's son Nigel Nicolson; and Bloomsbury notables including Frances Partridge and poet-novelist Stephen Spender. With archival footage, paintings of the period, and haunting family photos of a Victorian childhood of both beauty and abuse, the film interweaves the personal story of Virginia's life and loves with the turbulent times she lived in. Rare documents, filmed for the first time, include the document in her handwriting used to establish the League of Nations, newly-discovered letters to her beloved Vita, and the Gestapo list where she and Leonard were marked for arrest.

This personal library reveals a great deal about the Woolfs: how they read the books and what they meant to them, and provides scholars with many valuable insights into their books and themselves. Much biographical information may be gleaned from the books in their library. Evidence of their wide circle of acquaintances in the literary and political worlds is present in the large number of books inscribed to them by the authors, or sent to them for review. Their own autographs in the books they bought for themselves or to give to each other show which books they especially liked. This fascinating library provides much for the scholar interested in writers associated with the Bloomsbury group, notably Lytton Strachey, E.M. Forster, David Garnett, Roger Fry, and Clive Bell.
All the titles within this fine collection have been individually cataloged, and the full bibliographic records can be searched and retrieved in the Washington State University Libraries' online catalog, Griffin , by performing an "author" search on "Library of Leonard and Virginia Woolf."

Woolf, Virginia (1882-1941)
page: Passionate friendships with women were essential to the life and work of novelist Virginia Woolf. Woolf was born Adeline Virginia Stephen on January 25, 1882, in Hyde Park Gate, London, the daughter of Leslie Stephen, a man of letters, who in the same year began editing the Dictionary of National Biography and Julia Pattle Duckworth, a Victorian beauty immortalized in the photographs of Julia Margaret Cameron. Sponsor Message.
Virginia's mother's first marriage ended with the death of her husband, leaving her with three children, one of whom, Gerald Duckworth, is known to have sexually molested Woolf as an adolescent. Her adolescence was marked as well by a sequence of deaths and the first bout of a mental illness that would haunt her for the rest of her life: Her mother died in 1895; her half-sister Stella, who served as mother-substitute, in 1897; her father in 1904 and her brother Thoby in 1906. She experienced her first mental breakdown at the age of thirteen following her mother's death, while the final one ended with her suicide when she walked into the river Ouse on March 28, 1941.

    ADVANCED SEARCH TO THE LIGHTHOUSE AND BEYOND - A VIRGINIA WOOLF AND BLOOMSBURY TRAIL By Heidi Dore Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman as Virginia Woolf in Stephen Daldry's 2003 biopic, The Hours Charleston , nestling in the Sussex Downs between Eastbourne and Brighton, has become a mecca for devotees of Virginia Woolf and the Bloomsbury set. Following a chronology of Woolf's life, this trail is designed to give an insight into the world of Bloomsbury, whilst taking in some of the key heritage sites, galleries and other places of interest that tell the story of this iconic writer. Apart from being a brilliant and prolific author, Virginia Woolf was also the epicentre of 'The Bloomsbury Group', the network of writers, artists and philosophers who gathered together at the beginning of the last century to discuss art, philosophy and religion. Bloomsbury became a major influence on British twentieth century painting, design and literature, and for Woolf, the group offered intellectual freedom. It liberated her from the stuffy conventions of polite society and inspired her to experiment with many literary techniques. Her life became a constant search for a way of representing the world which she, like many of her generation, saw as chaotic, fragmentary, and without definite meaning.
