Virginia Woolf was born in London in 1882, the daughter of Sir Leslie Stephen, first editor of The Dictionary of National Biography. After his death in 1904 Virginia and her sister, the painter Vanessa Bell, moved to Bloomsbury and became the center of 'The Bloomsbury Group'. This informal collective of artists and writers which included Lytton Strachey and Roger Fry, 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). These first novels show the development of Virginia Woolf's distinctive and innovative narrative style. It was during this time that she and Leonard Woolf founded The Hogarth Press with the publication of the co-authored Two Stories in 1917, hand-printed in the dining room of their house in Surrey.
Between 1925 and 1931 Virginia Woolf produced what are now regarded as her finest masterpieces, from Mrs. Dalloway (1925) to the poetic and highly experimental novel The Waves (1931). She also maintained an astonishing output of literary criticism, short fiction, journalism, and biography, including the playfully subversive Orlando (1928) and A Room of One's Own (1929) a passionate feminist essay. This intense creative productivity was often matched by periods of mental illness, from which she had suffered since her mother's death in 1895. On 28 March 1941, a few months before the publication of her final novel, Between the Acts, Virginia Woolf committed suicide.
The serene and maternal Mrs. Ramsay, the tragic yet absurd Mr. Ramsay, together with their children and assorted guests, are holidaying on the Isle of Skye. From the seemingly trivial postponement of a visit to a nearby lighthouse, Virginia Woolf constructs a remarkable and moving examination of the complex tensions and allegiances of family life. One of the great literary achievements of the twentieth-century, To the Lighthouse is often cited as Virginia Woolf's most popular novel.
几十页看过去了,隐隐约约还在等伍尔夫开完头,等着开始点什么,发生点什么……直到一大家子及宾朋都在餐桌边坐下来了,晚餐开始了——这时已经过去八十来页了——围桌而坐的人们,将各自如影随形的心理活动从相对分散的空间——不出拉姆齐夫妇海边别墅及别墅四周散步可达的范...
评分《到灯塔去》伍尔夫 我正经书读得少,尤其很少看西方作家的文字,一来觉着看得辛苦,二来担心翻译词不达意。当然,主要还是自己学识学养不够,小学生听大学课,何必装模作样地为难自己呢?没想到这次还是忍不住又装了一次。 之前,在石康的博客里看到他说:“中国女人与年龄...
评分以歪斜方式说出全部事实。(Tell all the truth but tell it slant.) 语出德曼:“文学就是不快乐地认识到‘它本身不过是在重复、虚构和讲述寓言,永远不能参与行为或现代性的自然发生’。” 可我不是打算讨论文学能不能或要不要积极介入生活这种问题,相信读过萨...
评分弗吉尼亚•伍尔芙的《到灯塔去》很好读——简单的情节,没有任何悬念。但它竟何名留文学史?只是因为它的作者是意识流代表作家、女性主义书写者,最后杀死了自己的弗吉尼亚•伍尔芙? 读完这本书,意识到它的价值在于反复咀嚼——当你只顾阅读情节时,却忽视了代表精确性的...
评分在普鲁斯特那儿,所谓的意识流只是进入故事的途径,提供一个框架,落实到内容,还是很现实主义的。但是到了伍尔夫这儿,意识流就是文本本身,内容的全部!有点吓人。 两者的文笔同样精微细腻,但是普鲁斯特像是把你没注意到的细部展示给你看,让你有一种“发现”的喜悦。而伍...
It is at once an ode to and an elegy for the moments in life–petty and great, exalting and saddening, of solidarity and solitude, of rage and rest. They fade away quickly, rightly, these meagre moments. But then they, too, stay and remain, in a modest way, for in such moments are stashed the fragments of eternity; the potent seeds of immortality.
评分纷乱、繁杂,结尾流俗
