Sinossi editore
'... the book is highly recommended as a welcome addition to Woolfian scholarship.' Cercles 'Cuddy-Keane's book should be required reading for anyone interested in the intellectual and cultural history of modernism. ... Cuddy-Keane is always stimulating and thoughtful ...' Modernism/Modernity 'Only rarely does a book appear which suddenly and single-handedly reworks the critical terrain. Melba Cuddy-Keane's Virginia Woolf, the Intellectual and the Public Sphere is such a book. ... thoughtful, illuminating ... This book is an outstanding piece of scholarship: original, provocative, historically and theoretically grounded. Cuddy-Keane moves seamlessly between abstract concepts and the specifics of individual texts; her argument never seems forced. ... Virginia Woolf, the Intellectual and the Public Sphere will have wide and lasting currency in Woolf studies.' Yearbook of English Studies 'This book takes us further as critics of Woolf in its injunction to read Woolf's criticism within the development of a modernist history of ideas. Cuddy-Keane's overarching insight that Woolf's essays teach us, not only through their content but through their rhetorical strategies, to read and to think outside authoritative parameters emphasizes once again the subtle complexity of this modernist writer.' Georgia Johnston, Saint Louis University 'Melba Cuddy-Keane's outstanding Virginia Woolf, the Intellectual and the Public Sphere puts to rest any lingering doubts about the significance of Woolf's criticism by delineating a new context in which to read it ... elegantly argued ... This is an important book, a smart book, and a well-written book.' Woolf Studies Annual Per saperne di più…
