<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Thanks, Vara. This has been critiqued to some extent, but not enough, and within Bloomsbury, it wasn't only Keynes. See, for example, Woolf's diary entry from January 9, 1915, where she describes an unexpected crossing of paths with residents of a local Kingston area care home: “[O]ne realized that everyone in that long line was a miserable ineffective shuffling idiotic creature [....] It was perfectly horrible. They should certainly be killed.” I remember that Janet Lyon examines this in “On the Asylum Road with Woolf and Mew,” <i>Modernism / modernity</i> 18:3 (September 2011): 551–74, and I wonder if anyone else knows of Bloomsbury-specific criticism on the issue?</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Alice</div><div><br></div><div>Alice Keane</div><div>Adjunct Assistant Professor</div><div>Department of English</div><div>Queens College, CUNY</div><div>65-30 Kissena Blvd.</div><div>Flushing, NY 11367</div></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Jun 3, 2021 at 4:27 PM Neverow, Vara S. via Vwoolf <<a href="mailto:vwoolf@lists.osu.edu">vwoolf@lists.osu.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">
