Autorenporträt
Virginia Woolf, born Adeline Virginia Stephen on January 25, 1882, in London, is an eminent figure in modernist literature. Her rich literary heritage includes novels, essays, and short stories that stand testimony to her innovative narrative techniques and exploration of the human psyche. Woolf was a central figure in the Bloomsbury Group, an assembly of English writers, intellectuals, philosophers, and artists. She evolved narrative forms through her use of stream of consciousness, piercing the inner lives of her characters with psychological depth and insight. Her revered works like 'Mrs. Dalloway' (1925), 'To the Lighthouse' (1927), and 'Orlando' (1928), revolutionized the structural norms of the novel. 'The Collected Short Stories of Virginia Woolf' showcases her mastery in brevity, encapsulating the complexity of characters and themes within the constraints of the short story. Woolf's essays, such as those found in 'A Room of One's Own' (1929), address women's roles in literature and the need for economic and intellectual independence. Complex in thought and style, her works scrutinized the sociocultural fabric of her time, making her an indelible icon in feminist literature and the modernist avant-garde. Woolf's life, marked by personal struggles with mental health, ended tragically when she took her own life on March 28, 1941. Despite her untimely death, Woolf's literary contributions continue to be pivotal subjects of research, reflection, and admiration among scholars and readers alike.
