Dear Anne and Woolfians,

I will say Laura Marcus's 'Virginia Woolf and the Art of the Novel' (Ch 12 of _Dreams of Modernity_).

Best,

Hi Anne and Woolfians,

Lisa Tyler's "Cultural Conversations: Woolf’s 1927 Review Of Hemingway" in The Journal of Modern Periodical Studies 6.1 (2015, pp. 44–59) is quite readable and informative, and it could be useful in showing students how Woolf read a writer they might be familiar with from the era.

When I first discovered Sara Crangle's “Woolf’s Cesspoolage: On Waste and Resignation” (The Cambridge Quarterly, 40.1, 2011, pp. 1–20) it blew my mind because if you'd told me before I read it that it was possible to write an informative, thoughtful essay about Woolf and waste (toilets!), I'd have been perhaps a bit doubtful. But I got to the end and my primary complaint was that it wasn't longer!

Speaking of longer, I have to mention one you probably would never use in an undergrad course, but I just adore it for the way it deepens our knowledge of Woolf in the late 'teens/early 'twenties: "Virginia Woolf’s Research for Empire and Commerce in Africa (Leonard Woolf, 1920)" by Michèle Barrett, Woolf Studies Annual 19 (2013) pp. 83-122.

Cheers,
Matt Cheney

  Dear Woolfians, 

  It's time to revamp my Woolf syllabi and I thought I'd ask you to name the one or two articles in Woolf studies that you've read recently that you've found particularly thought-provoking, provocative and/or teachable. I really want the ones that changed the way you understood Woolf or one of her texts.

  Thanks in advance--eager to hear your suggestions,

  Anne
