Twentieth-century British wood-engraved book illustration up to the beginning of the Second World War was among the most versatile and inventive of the graphic arts. In a climate of typographical renaissance, various wood-engravers made a significant impact on the appearance of the printedpage, transforming good books into works of art and influencing modern standards of book production. This book reveals the methods by which these pioneering artists broke with nineteenth-century illustrative practices. The author surveys the subject in relation to the cultural and historicalbackground, and within the context of mainstream developments in the visual arts, placing emphasis on the working relationship of illustrators with both private presses and commercial publishers. Detailed study of unpublished material, including art school records, publishers' and print societies'archives, and artists' correspondence, throws new light on the work and practices of the more innovative wood engravers.

Virginia Woolf and Her Female Contemporaries, seeks to contextualize Virginia Woolf?s writing alongside the work of other women writers during the first decades of the twentieth-century. This volume not only expands our understanding of the unprecedented number of female writers but also helps us comprehend the ways that these writers contributed and complicated modernist literature. It explores how burgeoning communities and enclaves of women writers intersected with and coexisted alongside Virginia Woolf and emphasizes both the development of enclaves and specific female subcultures or individual writers who were contemporaneous with Virginia Woolf. The essays in the first section,?Who Are Virginia Woolf?s Female Contemporaries,? explore the boundaries of contemporaneity by considering women across nation, time, and class. The second section,?Cultural Contexts,? explores Woolf?s connections to early twentieth-century culture such as film and book societies. The two final sections,?Recovery and Recuperation,? and?Connections Between Canonical Writers,? illuminate the interlocking network of women writers and artists, the latter through women who have been bereft of scholarly attention and the former through women who have received more scholarly attention.
