Marie-Claire,

I couldn't agree more. What an impressive project and such an extraordinary group of scholars to whom we are all immensely indebted.

Dear all:

Tremendous news indeed. Thank you so very much. It means so much to so many of us - I still can't find the words
and even less so after all your enthusiastic kudos...

This means the hope to find more time - or simply, the time - to achieve more, and more meaningfully so.

Another enlarged realm of possibility. And simultaneously more of a duty to achieve, actually.

The names of Brenda Silver & Michele Barrett were always at the forefront with all those big
names that I found at the onset of my research at the end of the 90s. Also Mark Hussey's, Vara's
and so many more of you here.

Thank you all for the fantastic work. It makes us all even more proud to be part of the community
of International Woolfians. Congratulations also to all the lucky people who will make it to Fresno, CA.

Enjoy! 😎🌞

All the best

Marie-Claire

I wholeheartedly agree. Easy to use and so smartly put together. Brilliant idea to have Brenda Silver’s essential book accessible alongside the digitized holographs. Such a gift to the Woolf community. Thank you! And it’s super news that it will find a cyber home at King’s College with Clara Jones and Anna Snaith.

Virginia Woolf’s Reading and Research Notes Online

 Since 2016, Brenda Silver and I have been collaborating on a project to digitise Woolf’s reading and research notes.  WoolfNotes.com<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/WoolfNotes.com__;!!KGKeukY!xUOv9l7u3gnh0HBG8d6-gOzVX9Ji8VgUvFdbDE-SLgmY8-nIkb_uoGOCmZeDX7EpPVYaMwaSv6er3Qufh8k59XnIrT-QeA$> is now live and we hope you find it useful and enjoyable.   https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.WoolfNotes.com__;!!KGKeukY!2r5b-rjsWgHnvtxZeed3iILJNBXTWSflzy053YL25Nk-C8fuSzxsVyulk-1XKVLmrvk4QKW51_4KaYrkMxS3b_Cg$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.woolfnotes.com/__;!!KGKeukY!xUOv9l7u3gnh0HBG8d6-gOzVX9Ji8VgUvFdbDE-SLgmY8-nIkb_uoGOCmZeDX7EpPVYaMwaSv6er3Qufh8k59XkmCjnnSQ$>

 The core of the project is the 67 reading notebooks that Silver researched and described in detail in her original 1983 book, published by Princeton University Press, Virginia Woolf’s Reading Notebooks.   This book was digitised in 2017 and published by the University Press of New England.  Silver identified many if not all of the sources read by Woolf, including the specific editions, and pointed to the use that she made of the reading in her published works.  In addition, Silver provided a detailed account of the contents of each notebook, particularly useful since Woolf was writing for herself and her handwriting in these notebooks is at times very difficult to read.   Of these original 67 notebooks, RN 1-67 in WoolfNotes.com<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/WoolfNotes.com__;!!KGKeukY!xUOv9l7u3gnh0HBG8d6-gOzVX9Ji8VgUvFdbDE-SLgmY8-nIkb_uoGOCmZeDX7EpPVYaMwaSv6er3Qufh8k59XnIrT-QeA$>, 33 are archived at the New York Public Library Berg Collection, 33 at The Keep in Sussex, and 1 at the Beinecke Library, Yale.

 WoolfNotes.com<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/WoolfNotes.com__;!!KGKeukY!xUOv9l7u3gnh0HBG8d6-gOzVX9Ji8VgUvFdbDE-SLgmY8-nIkb_uoGOCmZeDX7EpPVYaMwaSv6er3Qufh8k59XnIrT-QeA$> also includes a number of other Woolf manuscripts related to her reading.  RN 68 is a reading notebook entirely at home with the original 67.  It was privately owned by Mrs Frances Hooper and bequeathed to Smith College in 1986.  It contains reading notes on Trollope and other novelists, presumably connected to ‘Phases of Fiction’.  RNs 69-99 await the discovery of further reading notebooks.

Other inclusions related to Woolf’s reading, but not “reading notebooks” in Silver’s sense, have been prefixed WN (WoolfNotes).  WN100 is Woolf’s famous Agamemnon notebook; WN101 is her personal index of subjects covered in Edward Arber’s anthology An English Garner; WN 102 is a short sketch reflecting on Woolf’s reading of D H Lawrence’s Sons and Lovers in 1931.  We have also been able to digitise the extensive notes on imperialism and international trade that Virginia Woolf made, in her capacity as a research assistant for the preparation of Leonard Woolf’s Empire and Commerce in Africa (1920), and these are included in WoolfNotes.

WoolfNotes.com<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/WoolfNotes.com__;!!KGKeukY!xUOv9l7u3gnh0HBG8d6-gOzVX9Ji8VgUvFdbDE-SLgmY8-nIkb_uoGOCmZeDX7EpPVYaMwaSv6er3Qufh8k59XnIrT-QeA$> has the approval of the Woolf Estate, which is managed by the Society of Authors in London.  The development and completion of the project owes much to its Technical Director, Gilly Furse of Osprey Websites, whose innovative website design is matched only by her indefatigable research on many topics.   The project was supported by the School of English and Drama at Queen Mary University of London, where it was “soft launched” in 2023.

We are delighted to announce that 2024 brings a new institutional home for WoolfNotes, which has been adopted by King’s College London.  At King’s the project will be taken forward by Woolf scholars Clara Jones and Anna Snaith, and the English Department is providing financial support. Emma Crossey, a PhD student in the department, has been appointed to a part-time role as the WoolfNotes content editor.  This major digital humanities project brings into the public domain Woolf’s last remaining substantial unpublished work.

Readers of the list who are attending the Fresno Conference in June may like to know that Anna Snaith will be there.

Michèle Barrett and Brenda Silver, June 2024
