[Vwoolf] VWSGB Online talk on Virginia Woolf, Leonard Woolf and Margaret Llewelyn Davies

[Virginia Woolf Society of GB]

‘The Passionate, Political Friendships of Virginia Woolf, Leonard Woolf and
Margaret Llewelyn Davies’ by Marielle O’Neill

Wednesday 19 July 2023, 5.30pm BST

Marielle O’Neill talks about Virginia Woolf, Leonard Woolf and Margaret
Llewelyn Davies, followed by a Q&A with Mark Hussey.

In this online talk, Marielle will explore the complex and profound
relationships between Virginia and Leonard Woolf and Margaret Llewelyn
Davies. As lifelong friends the trio had great influence on one another
both personally and politically. However, there were tensions within
Margaret and Virginia's friendship, particularly regarding Virginia's
novel, *Night and Day* (1919) – Margaret possibly inspired the character of
Mary Datchet – and Woolf's introductory letter to *Life as We Have Known It*
(1931).

Marielle O’Neill is a doctoral researcher at Leeds Trinity University. Her
research explores the political activism and partnership of Leonard and
Virginia Woolf. She has worked in local and national politics in the UK and
US, and is now pursuing academic research informed by her experience in
politics. Mark Hussey is Distinguished Professor Emeritus at Pace
University, New York. He has published widely on Virginia Woolf and the
Bloomsbury Group, most recently *Clive Bell and the Making of Modernism*
(2021) and *Selected Letters of Clive Bell* (2023).

Tickets £5, members only, who will have received an email with details of
