商品簡介
Focusing on Woolf one of the preeminent writers of the modernist period US, Canadian, and British literature scholars explore how new technologies in the 1920s and 1930s produced new sensual experiences, which in turn led to new concepts of national and personal identity and new understandings of the world. They examine in particular how her writing and politics were influenced by the gramophone, the radio, the Kodak, the cinema, and other reproduction technologies; and they also consider how these inventions have shaped her image and reception as a woman, a writer, and an intellectual.
