Virginia Woolf and the Literature of the English Renaissance
This book represents the confluence of two significant elements of English literature: a major critic and novelist of the 20th century and the period of greatest literary glory. The work of Virginia Woolf whose novels changed the face of 20th century fiction is set beside the output which began with the poems and plays of Shakespeare and his contemporaries and ended with the great lyric poets of the 17th century. Using letters, diaries, reading-notes, drafts of essays and novels, the author considers Virginia Woolf's varied reactions to the English Renaissance and assesses their impact on her fiction and criticism. Each of the novels is shown to integrate some elements of Renaissance literature in its language, characterization and structure.
