Virginia Woolf: Books
built 260 days ago
Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway, published in 1925, was a bestseller both in Britain and the United States despite its departure from typical novelistic style. Mrs. Dalloway and Woolf's subsequent book, To the Lighthouse, have generated the most critical attention and are the most widely studied of Woolf's novels.

Virginia Woolf has emerged from recent scholarship as a less inward-looking and other-worldly writer than she was depicted for more than half a century. However, this is the first book to address the cryptographic nature of her writings about politics and history. Approaching each of her novels in turn through theoretical frameworks provided by Michel Foucault, Mikhail Bakhtin, and contemporary social theorists, Linden Peach argues that Woolf is a more sophisticated political thinker than has been commonly recognized, interested in historiography, engaged by the coded nature of social reality and interrogating the cryptic meanings within public discourse.

To eliminate the book reviews from your search, do a people search for "Woolf, Virginia" not books-reviews (PE Woolf, Virginia, NOT books-reviews). Same software as MLA above. There are over 525 records on Woolf in Academic Search Premier. Some of the records are for a more general audience than MLA, and may be very useful. You can ... limit your results, under "search options," to scholarly articles (this option is not found in MLA--generally speaking, everything in MLA is scholarly).

Woolf’s book ‘To the Lighthouse’ (1927), although ostensibly based in Scotland, is heavily influenced by St Ives and Godrevy Lighthouse. This would have been a prominent landmark from the house – as it still is from so many parts of the town.
