[Vwoolf] ADV: Re: Virginia's physicality

[Diane Gillespie]

  I would suggest, Giulietta, Barbara Lounsberry three volumes on 
Virginia Woolf's diaries, especially the third, /Virginia Woolf, the War 
Without, the War Within: Her Final Diaries and the Diaries She Read/.  
Woolf's consciousness of her aging body is evident.  Also, my essay, 
"Godiva Still Rides: Virginia Woolf, Divestiture, and Three Guineas," in 
/Woolf and the Art of Exploration/ may be relevant.  It deals with 
nakedness and self-revelation literally and metaphorically in Woolf's 
writing and in selected women's painting.
