br. Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) è diventata nel corso del secolo una vera e propria icona in tutto il mondo. La sua leggenda, intrecciata a quella dell'eccentrico gruppo di Bloomsbury, è stata spesso interpretata a partire dal suicidio, un ultimo gesto che finisce per oscurare la vitalità delle sue opere. Il contributo critico di Liliana Rampello capovolge tutte le interpretazioni fin qui consolidate, rendendo esplicita una ricerca esistenziale che si può ritenere uno degli esempi più riusciti di pensiero poetico fondato sull'amore per la vita. Rileggendo l'intera opera di Virginia Woolf l'autrice si rivolge non solo agli studiosi ma soprattutto a tutti i lettori della scrittrice. Liliana Rampello insegna Estetica all'Università di Bologna.
ill., br. Virginia bocca sporca d'inchiostro. Virginia ginocchia spigolose sotto la lampada e sigaretta nel bocchino. Virginia madonna beffarda e regina di Bloomsbury. Virginia che danza attorno a Vanessa come una libellula attorno a una ninfea. Virginia che prega Léonard di fermare l'automobile all'incrocio del negozio di antiquariato. Virginia su uno sgabello a conversare di Proust con un libraio parigino. Virginia su una poltrona sfondata alla Hogarth Press. Virginia umbratile e crepuscolare, Virginia depressa, Virginia spassosa, Virginia corrente d'acqua adamantina. Virginia creatura completamente poetica. "Virginia Woolf e i suoi contemporanei" è un'antologia di confessioni, corrispondenze, racconti e brevi interviste raccolte nella crepa fra bellezza e realtà - là dove Virginia Woolf, protesa dal verso poetico, afferrava brandelli di vita quotidiana per trasformarli in prosa. È un florilegio di memorie promiscue, ventisette in tutto - dal «buon vecchio» T.S. Eliot all'Orlando/Vita Sackville-West, dai fratelli Lehmann a E.M. Forster e Christopher Isherwood, alla nipote Angelica o all'amica Barbara - che ricompongono il fiero profilo aquilino, quasi ascetico, di una Virginia squisita e claustrale; la prepotente sensualità del suo genio; la violenza critica della sua lingua; l'impertinenza vorace della sua curiosità. Perché attraverso la voce degli altri riemerga dal fondo di un fiume nei pressi di Rodmell la sua, bassa e gutturale come un vecchio velluto rosso. La nuova edizione di Virginia Woolfe i suoi contemporanei curata da Liliana Rampello è un tributo umano a questa visionaria sperimentatrice, in guerra con il mondo ma del mondo profondamente entusiasta, per ricostruire l'intima stanza che Virginia reclamava tutta per sé. Una stanza in cui alla scienza del lutto si sostituisce una disperata "joie de vivre" e in cui l'atto della scrittura si trasforma nel tentativo di catturare la vita stessa.
