The Edinburgh Companion To Virginia Woolf And The Arts

"The Companion gathers a stellar group of scholars to exemplify the range and depth of Woolf's engagement with the arts. This remarkable collection shows that Woolf stands at the heart of the dynamism and innovations of twentieth-century aesthetics. It will be a rich and provocative resource for anyone with an interest in modern culture.--Mark Hussey, Editor, Woolf Studies Annual. The Edinburgh Companion to Virginia Woolf and the Arts is the most authoritative and up-to-date guide to Virginia Woolf's artistic influences and associations. In Original, extensive and newly researched chapters by internationally recognised authors, the Companion explores Woolf's ideas about creativity and the nature of art in the context of the recent ̀him to the visual' in modernist studies with its focus on visual technologies and the significance of material production. The in-depth chapters place Woolf's work in relation to the most influential aesthetic theories and artistic practices, including Bloomsbury aesthetics, art and race, Vanessa Bell and painting, art galleries, theatre, music, dance, fashion, entertaining, garden and book design, broadcasting, film, and photography. No previous book concerned with Woolf and the arts has been so wide ranging or has paid such close attention to both public and domestic art forms. Includes 16 colour and 39 black-and-white illustrations and guides to further reading, the Companion will be an essential reference work for scholars, students and the general public. --Book Jacket.
