Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Virginia Woolf's Night and Day (1919) is at once a courtship novel, a social comedy, and a subtle critique of Edwardian conventions. Set in London, it follows Katherine Hilbery, torn between familial expectation, romantic attachment,…and intellectual self-determination, while counterpointing her story with those of Mary Datchet and Ralph Denham. More traditional in form than Woolf's later experimental fiction, the novel nevertheless reveals her emerging modernist sensibility through its psychological nuance, ironic narration, and probing treatment of marriage, gender, and the limits imposed upon women's lives. Woolf, a central figure of literary modernism and a member of the Bloomsbury Group, wrote Night and Day in the aftermath of profound personal losses and amid intense reflection on women's place in society. The daughter of the eminent critic Leslie Stephen, she was steeped in literary culture from childhood; her awareness of Victorian inheritance and contemporary change deeply informs this novel. The book's tension between social ritual and inward freedom anticipates the feminist concerns that would later find fuller expression in A Room of One's Own. This is a rewarding book for readers interested in Woolf before her boldest formal innovations, and for anyone drawn to intelligent fiction about love, vocation, and autonomy. Night and Day offers both narrative pleasure and rich insight into a society on the threshold of modernity. 252 pp. Englisch.
