Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the writings and life of Virginia Woolf, In the Hollow of the Wave looks at how Woolf treated "nature" as a deliberate discourse that shaped her way of thinking about the self and the environment and her strategies for challenging the imbalances of power in her own culture--all of which remain valuable in the framing of our discourse about nature today. Bonnie Kime Scott explores Woolf's uses of nature, including her satire of scientific professionals and amateurs, her parodies of the imperial conquest of land, her representations of flora and fauna, her application of post-impressionist and modernist modes, her merging of characters with the environment, and her ventures across the species barrier. In shedding light on this discourse of Woolf and the natural world, Scott brings to our attention a critical, neglected, and contested aspect of modernism itself. She relies on feminist, ecofeminist, and postcolonial theory in the process, drawing also on the relatively recent field of animal studies. By focusing on multiple registers of Woolf's uses of nature, the author paves the way for more extended research in modernist practices, natural history, garden and landscape studies, and lesbian/queer studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This elegantly written and richly detailed biography tells the story of Virginia Woolf's last ten years, from the creation of her great visionary novel, The Waves, to her suicide in 1941. Herbert Marder looks closely at Woolf's views on totalitarianism and her depictions of Britain under siege to create a remarkable portrait of a mature and renowned writer during a time of rising fascist violence.An awareness of personal danger, Marder says, colored Woolf's actions and consciousness in the years leading up to World War II. She practiced her art with intense dedication and was much admired for her wit and vivacity. But she had previously tried to kill herself, and she asserted her right to die if her manic-depressive illness became intolerable. Waves and water haunted her imagination; visions of drowning recurred in her work. The Measure of Life suggests that Woolf anticipated her suicide, and indeed enacted it symbolically many times before the event. Marder's account of her death emphasizes the importance of her relationship with her doctor and distant cousin, Octavia Wilberforce. Wilberforce's letters about Woolf's last months, including some previously unpublished passages, appear in the appendix.Staying close to the spirit of Woolf's own writing, Marder traces her evolving social consciousness in the 1930s, connecting her growing concern with politics and social history with the facts of her daily life. He stresses her endurance as a working writer, and explores her friendships, her complex relations with servants, and her activities at the Hogarth Press. The Measure of Life illuminates the unspoken quarrels and obscure acts of courage that provide a key, as Woolf herself believed, to the hidden roots of our existence. By letting the reader see events as Virginia Woolf saw them, Marder's compelling narrative captures both her unique comic spirit and her profound seriousness.

Book excerpt: Collective Traumas is about the traumatic European history of the 20th century - war, genocide, dictatorship, ethnic cleansing - and how individuals, communities and nations have dealt with their dark past through remembrance, historiography and legal settlements. Memories, and especially collective memories, serve as foundations for national identities and are politically charged. Regardless whether memory is used to support or to challenge established ideologies, it is inevitably subject to political tensions. Consequently, memory, history and amnesia tend to be used and abused for different political and ideological purposes. From the perspectives of historical, literary and visual studies the essays focus on how the experiences of war and profound conflict have been represented and remembered in different national cultures and communities. This volume is a vital contribution to memory studies and trauma theory. Collective Traumas is a result of the multidisciplinary research project on Memory Culture that was initiated in 2002 at Karlstad University, Sweden. A previous publication with Peter Lang is Memory Work: The Theory and Practice of Memory (2005).

Book excerpt: This dissertation studies the theme of time in Anne Tyler's fiction and centres specifically on how Jeremy Pauling in Celestial Navigation, Justine Peck in Searching for Caleb, Cody Tull in Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant, and Macon Leary in The Accidental Tourist respond to the losses brought about by the passage of time. The introduction establishes similarities between Tyler's emphasis on change, the passage of time, and reactions to change, and Paul Fraisse's focus on temporally organized behaviour. the three interrelated perspectives of the past, the present, and the future. The temporal horizon is used in this dissertation as a key to interpreting the temporal awareness of Tyler's characters and their behaviour in adapting to change. It is often memories of crises, such as unexpected death or desertion, which predominate the protagonist's temporal outlook at the expense of the present and the future. protagonists is to free themselves from the past and discover a greater significance in the present and the future. With the exception of Jeremy Pauling, they finally succeed in altering the hold of the past, and as a consequence of this shift of vision a better balance between their three temporal perspectives is achieved. dissertation, indicates that the majority of her protagonists in the end reach a moment of buoyancy when, at least temporarily in control of time, they apparently trust in the possibility of altering their situations. Because of this anticipation they also modify their behaviour and take steps to give their futures a new direction. While it may be an open question where the passage of time may lead them, the thesis indicates that in many of Anne Tyler's novels the endings seem suggestive of affirmative change.

Book excerpt: This work attempts a new approach to mid-Victorian fiction. Unbiased, as to what novels or novelists merit examination, the author uses contemporary reviews as her guide, allowing us to see the fiction scene during 1866 as it looked to the Victorians themselves. are mentioned in modern literary surveys. Much of this unknown fiction reveals a great deal about the Victorian mind, and the reviewers, whether their reactions arose out of admiration, bewilderment or horror, provide fresh insights into the tastes and interests of the reading public of the 1860s. Thomas, Charlotte Riddell, Emma Newby, Edmund Yates and Percy Fitzgerald treated such delicate subjects as marital estrangement and the sexual needs of middleclass women with far more candour than did the major novelists. helps us see through the official facade of Victorian morality, progress and success and gives evidence that a great uncertainty of values prevailed among novelists and their readers.
