Download or read book The Feminist Aesthetics of Virginia Woolf written by Jane Goldman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-01-04 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jane Goldman offers a revisionary, feminist reading of Woolf's work. Focusing on Woolf's engagement with the artistic theories of her time, Goldman analyses Woolf's fascination with the Post-impressionist exhibition of 1920 and the solar eclipse of 1927 by linking her response to a much wider literary and cultural context. Lavishly illustrated with colour pictures, this book will appeal not only to scholars working on Woolf, but also to students of modernism, art history, and women's studies.
