À propos de l'auteur
Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was an iconic figure in the modernist literary movement, renowned for her innovative narrative techniques and thematic explorations of human consciousness, gender, and society. Born Adeline Virginia Stephen in London, Woolf was a central member of the Bloomsbury Group, an influential circle of intellectuals and artists. Her literary career began in earnest with the publication of her first novel, 'The Voyage Out' (1915), which hinted at the modernist style she later fully embraced. Woolf's 'To the Lighthouse' (1927), is often cited as a defining work of twentieth-century literature, showcasing her pioneering use of stream-of-consciousness as a narrative device. This novel examines the complex dynamics of the Ramsay family and provides profound insights into life's impermanence and the subjective nature of reality. Woolf's literary talent was not confined to novels; she was also an accomplished essayist and critic, with collections like 'A Room of One's Own' (1929) and 'Three Guineas' (1938) addressing feminist themes and advocating for women's intellectual and financial independence. Woolf's legacy endures, with her writing continuing to inspire and influence readers and writers alike, acclaimed for its depth, its lyrical quality, and its contribution to modernist literature, as well as feminist thought. Sadly, her life was marred by mental illness, and she died by suicide in 1941, leaving behind a body of work that remains vital and widely studied to this day.
