O autoru

Virginia Woolf, born Adeline Virginia Stephen on January 25, 1882, in London, was an iconic figure of modernist literature in the early 20th century. Her literary prowess extended across essays, novels, and biographies, with an innovative approach characterized by her stream-of-consciousness technique. Woolf's upbringing in a literary household, with her father, Leslie Stephen, being an eminent historian and author, greatly influenced her literary career. She became a central figure in the Bloomsbury Group, a circle of intellectuals and artists in England. Woolf's works, such as 'Mrs. Dalloway' (1925), 'To the Lighthouse' (1927), and 'Orlando' (1928), showcase her profound insights into the human psyche, the subjectivity of experience, and the fluidity of time. In addition to her fictional work, Woolf contributed to critical essays and biographical writings, as evidenced by 'Walter Sickert: A Conversation' (1934), which expounds on the life and art of the British painter Walter Sickert, affirming her role as a discerning art critic. Woolf's influence has persisted over the years, inspiring countless writers and feminists due to her exploration of women's rights and mental illness. Tragically, Virginia Woolf's own battle with mental health issues led to her suicide on March 28, 1941, yet her legacy endures through her significant and evocative contributions to literature and feminist discourse.
