Book synopsis

This challenging and ambitious work§studies the interdisciplinary subject of painting §and writing, in the context of British Modernism, in §the first half of the twentieth century. Searching §for the European, continental influences and §artistic impacts, the study focuses on Virginia §Woolf and her novels, and her sister, Vanessa Bell §and her paintings. Portraits, both literary and §painterly, are observed and analysed through the §selected works of the artists. The study §challenges the written text, searching for §the 'painterly' the metaphoric and the metonymic §level of meaning in the texture of Woolf's writings. §Illustrations of selected paintings in §black and white, analysed throughout the study, are §present in the text. They stand for an addition to §the theoretical chapters. This book presents an §exciting panorama of dinamic thoughts and ideas both §for professionals and for all literature and art §lovers.
