Modernist Lives

- Biography and Autobiography at Leonard and Virginia Woolf's Hogarth Press

Om Modernist Lives

Focusing on the biographies and autobiographies published by Leonard and Virginia Woolf''s Hogarth Press from 1917-1946, Claire Battershill shows the importance of publishing history in understanding modernist literary work and culture. Modernist Livesdraws on archival material from the Hogarth Press Business Archive and first editions from the Virginia Woolf Collection at the E. J. Pratt Library to show how the Woolfs'' literary theories were expressed in all aspects of their publishing: their marketing strategies, editorial practice and the literary composition of their acquisitions. Featuring the works of figures such as Christopher Isherwood, Henry Green, Viola Tree, Vita Sackville-West and the Woolf''s themselves, Battershill illuminates the history of Hogarth books from their composition to their reception by readers and critics.
