Description
Virginia Woolf: Profession and Performance studies the intersection of Woolf's repeated critical and creative engagements with literal and figurative stagings (i.e., performance) and declarations and occupations (i.e., profession). In chapters that range from a comparative study of Woolf and Sylvia Beach as publishers and booksellers to studies that situate Woolf's life and work in relation to the culture of cosmetics, the theater, journalism, photography, printmaking, as well as career politics, contributors disclose how critical attention to this entanglement of "profession" and "performance" expands and enriches our understanding of modernist networks, women's labor in literary and other aesthetic fields, and gender politics that reward the reproduction of professional status quos. As an extension of the feminist turn in modernist studies, this volume contributes focused and nuanced studies to the collective project of understanding modernism as something women have made, professed, and performed.
