[WOOLF Virginia] LEE Hermione
Virginia Woolf ou l'aventure intérieure. Biographie
Paris, Autrement, "Littératures", 2000, 15 x 23, 1016 pages sous couverture souple illustrée. Traduit de l'anglais par Laurent Bury. "Une biographie de Virginia Woolf, pourquoi ? Le curriculum vitae de la romancière anglaise (1882-1941) est plein de lacunes. Aucune scolarité. Aucun emploi de bureau. Elle n'appartint à aucune institution. Elle ne donna guère de conférences publiques, ne rejoignit aucun comité. Les seuls événements marquants furent ses dépressions et ses tentatives de suicide. Elle n'eut pas d'enfants. Sa vie sexuelle n'eut rien de spectaculaire. Elle ne fut le sujet d'aucun scandale ou procès. Elle ne voyagea jamais hors d'Europe. Ses exploits et ses aventures se déroulèrent dans son esprit et sur la page blanche. On a souvent parlé, cependant, des sévices sexuels que ses demi-frères lui auraient fait subir durant son enfance et son adolescence. Impossible de distinguer la part d'invention dans ces événements connus par le seul témoignage de la victime, qui jugeait en tout cas avoir subi un traumatisme considérable. Elle aurait pourtant été horrifiée de voir son œuvre réduite à la simple expression de symptômes névrotiques. Son œuvre reflète toute la richesse affective et spirituelle de sa vie, au sein d'une famille et d'un couple hors du commun, dans un milieu intellectuel particulièrement stimulant. En plus d'un magistral portrait de femme, c'est le tableau de tout un demi-siècle en Angleterre que brosse Hermione Lee dans cette biographie inspirée, propre à dissiper les malentendus et les préjugés qui pèsent encore sur l'un des plus grands écrivains du XXe siècle."

Edited by Leonard Woolf who explains in the preface it was his hope to extract and distill entries culled from 26 volumes of diaries that related to her own writing and indeed the writing process and life as she lived it. While she began keeping diaries in 1915 this edition contains excerpts from August 1918 where in referring to Katherine Mansfield Woolf writes "I threw down BLISS with the exclamation 'She's done for!' . I shall have to accept the fact I am afraid that her mind is very thin soil laid an inch or two deep upon very barren rock" to Sunday March 8 1941 "Occupation is essential. And now with some pleasure I find that it's seven; and must cook dinner. Haddock and sausage meat. I think it is true that one gains a certain hold on sausage and haddock by writing them down."<br /> <br /> <br /> . KIRKPATRICK A31a. Hogarth Press hardcover

[WOOLF, Virginia, Charles MAURON (<i>translator<i>), <i>et al<i>.]
Commerce. Cahiers trimestriels . hiver 1926.
1926. Paris: Librairie Henri Leclerc. 1926. 4to. Original brown printed wrappers uncut; pp. 200 2 colophon blank; creasing and minor chipping to spine; old repaired tear to head of front wrapper with small trace of adhesive a few nicks to edges; very light creasing to a handful of leaves; a very good copy; bookplate of William Beekman to inner front cover.First edition no. 1020 of 2500 copies on Alfa paper from a total edition of 2900 of the tenth issue of the Parisian literary review Commerce containing the first published excerpt of Woolf's To the Lighthouse predating its publication in book form by five months.The extract is a French translation 'Le temps passe' of 'Time Passes' the experimental middle portion of To the Lighthouse completed in draft form in English by the end of May 1926 pp. 89-133 here. Woolf's diary makes clear that it was a piece of writing that gave her more than usual trouble. Recording the passage of ten years between the two outer sections of the novel set pre- and post-war the central presence is the Ramsays' holiday house on the Isle of Skye where the events of the outer sections takes place now empty with the objects inside the house as 'minor characters' all subjected to the passage and erosion effected by time.The literary critic and aesthetician Charles Mauron a close friend of Roger Fry began translating works by Virginia Woolf and E.M. Forster in 1925 at Fry's suggestion; Mauron had been suggested to Woolf as a translator of 'Time Passes' by Forster in October 1926 who as Woolf writes in a letter to Mauron 'so much admires your translation of the Passage to India'. Fry who had collaborated with Mauron on the translation of A Passage to India was 'forced to reconstruct' his translations of Mallarme's poems with Mauron's help after they were 'lost in a stolen suitcase in June 1933 . Mauron co-edited them with Julian Bell for publication after Fry's death' King's College Cambridge Roger Eliot Fry. Mauron would later translate Woolf's Orlando and Flush into French as well as works by Katherine Mansfield D.H. Lawrence T.E. Lawrence and Laurence Sterne.Commerce had been established in 1924 by Marguerite Caetani Princess of Bassiano in collaboration with Paul Valery Leon-Paul Fargue and Valery Larbaud and initially Adrienne Monnier publishing twenty-nine issues between 1924 and 1932. The first issue had featured the first fragments of Joyce's Ulysses translated into French and 'overseen by Adrienne Monnier who had to resign her position as administrator of the journal in August 1924 due to overwork. Monnier's exhaustion was not due to Joyce's demands on her time but rather to Leon-Paul Fargue's strange working habits. He claimed he could contribute poems to the review only by dictating them at night after Adrienne had spent a long and fatiguing day in the bookshop' Benstock Women of the Left Bank 1986 p. 226.'It is noteworthy that Woolf's middle section of To the Lighthouse was issued in a French translation before the original published in 1927 in Great Britain - partly because Commerce only accepted unpublished literary texts and partly because of Woolf's connections: not only had T.S. Eliot the editor of the Criterion to which Woolf regularly contributed shared interests with Commerce but Valery Larbaud who had discovered James Joyce played a major role in the diffusion of anglophone literature including the work of Virginia Woolf' Rigeade p. 190.Here 'Time Passes' appears as a free-standing text more overtly experimental than the modified version that would appear as part of the complete novel in 1927. The French translation is without any allusion to the rest of To the Lighthouse: mentions of the Ramsays have been omitted as has the first portion of the text describing William Bankes's return from the terrace and the lamps in the Ramsay house being extinguished one by one. In his useful introduction to a reprint of Mauron's translation together with a recently discovered intermediate English typescript James M. Haule proposes that 'Woolf saw periodical publication as a way to present a version of the entire section in a form that conveyed her original intention: a separate but important statement of belief and unbelief. It had not become the ""corridor"" between the two large sections of the novel that she sketched in her notebooks. It had become something more. By publishing this section with the help of Roger Fry and by publishing it in translation she not only saw it into print but also accomplished something else. She put it in the hands of a critic she admired and owing to her severe misgivings about this section reduced her risk of unfavourable impact from what she feared was a ""hopeless mess"" by publishing it in a language other than English'.One hundred copies of this issue of Commerce were printed on Hollande Van Gelder paper and three hundred on Pur fil Lafuma. Other contributions include Valery's 'Oraison funebre d'un fable' Fargue's 'Second recit du naufrageur' and a translation of Nietzsche's Greek Music Drama by Jean Paulhan director of the Nouvelle Revue Francaise.Provenance: From the library of William Beekman noted collector of Woolf's works.
