1. C. K. S. is Clement King Shorter: “In 1900, he founded Sphere, which he edited up until his death in 1926.”

VW calls him a ‘reptile’ in letter #744.

2. Note the ref. in the article to ‘good stories’ (middle col. nr bottom).  I have raised this issue on an earlier occasion on the list (but not clearly I think) over ‘the battle of life’.  Usually, when VW uses quote marks in her essays, she’s quoting, but sometimes they are what is now oddly called ‘scare quotes’.  I don’t think Andrew McNeillie fully appreciated this, for (e.g.) when VW wrote ‘something which is called “the battle of life”’ (E4 426), he annotates it as “The source of this apparent quotation has not been discovered” (E4 428 n3).  Perhaps I, too, had the same problem: for ‘good stories’ and ‘interesting opinions’, see E6 327 and 328 n4.

Eureka! 

 

Thank you so much Stuart, Stephen, and Alice! It is, indeed, in The Sphere and I was able to find it on the British Newspaper Archive once I had the title of the article. 

 

I did a search of words in the caption earlier but came up with nothing. Sometimes databases hide their treasures. 

 

I’m attaching it here.

 

We really are a gathering of sleuths!

 

I would gladly add what I have learned about getting licensing for photographs to some kind of information pool. My book is being sold a trade book so, I believe, the picture libraries are charging me more than they would for an academic publication. I’ve also discovered that it depends on how long your publisher can wait to get the permissions—sometimes it can take months, so they just go with a picture collection that works faster. 

 

But Maggie Humm is the person who has done the most with getting images. I’m sure she has lots of stories to tell!

 

Thank everyone again. I so appreciate this.

 

Danell

Hi Danell, 

 

So excited to see this image pop up — I’m pretty sure it comes from The Sphere magazine in the early 1920s (I’m working on a book on Woolf as publisher and came across a diary reference to her being photographed for The Sphere, and was amazed to discover that it actually happened, the shots accompanying an article about Leonard and Virginia as cutting edge publishers).  I can dig out the reference for you — just email and we can sleuth together!  I would be surprised if Time has ownership rights to the image though as The Sphere was definitely a British publication (unless of course, as is possible, the image appeared transatlantically in another context or Time gobbled up The Sphere at some point).   

 

Best wishes

Alice

  That's excellent advice, Gretchen.  And I also like the call from you, Mark, to rebel. It is such a racket. 
  The good news for people looking to use Woolf photos, you can use the images from the Houghton Library, Harvard for free: Virginia Woolf Monk's House photographs, circa 1867-1967. MS Thr 564 (103). Houghton Library, Harvard University.

  Danell,

  In the past, I've been able to negotiate for photos. They have a list price, but once or twice I contacted them and said I was an academic who had to pay for images out of my own pocket, and they reduced the fee. It's worth a try.

  Hi All,

  I am going to be using this image of LW and VW in my forthcoming book. The source is The LIFE Picture Collection. But, I am curious where it originally appeared. Time magazine? It looks to me like a much earlier photograph from the one that appeared on the cover ofTime.

  Just wondering if anyone knows where it first appeared.


  ?


  Thanks!

  P.S. It is quite expensive to license this particular image for a book, just FYI.
