9788544002131MARTIN CLARET. new. Em Orlando: Uma Biografia que Virginia Woolf considerava ""simples brincadeira de crian�a"" ""as f�rias de uma autora"" ""uma escapadela depois desses livros s�rios de experimenta��o po�tica t�o exigentes em mat�ria de forma"" ""uma narrativa ao g�nero de Defoe"" para diverti-la ela brinca com toda a seriedade n�o apenas com o leitor a literatura e a pessoa biografada no mundo chamado real sua amiga e amante Vita-Sackville West. Do mesmo modo que uma crian�a brinca tamb�m com toda a seriedade a fim de apreender o mundo em que vive e aprender a lidar com ele ela busca captar nuances do ser a partir de temas como a hist�ria as conven��es sociais as leis que governam os homens os costumes de seu pa�s a pol�tica o amor o poder a morte o casamento a busca de liberdade a fantasia e a realidade a busca de uma unidade identit�ria a pluralidade de ""eus"" as diferen�as de sexo e g�nero a natureza e a civiliza��o o tempo a geografia.

19288099New York: Crosby Gaige 1928. First edition. Fine. Preceding the first trade edition. One of 861 copies signed by Virginia Woolf. A Fine copy. Publisher's black cloth titled and decorated in gilt. An extraordinarily bright and attractive example.<br /> <br /> Released at the height of Woolf's literary celebrity Orlando was a thrill to contemporary reviewers: "Those who open Orlando expecting another novel in the vein of Mrs. Dalloway and To the Lighthouse will discover to their joy or sorrow that once more Mrs. Woolf has broken with tradition and convention and has set out to explore still another fourth dimension of writing.In this new work she is largely preoccupied with the time element in character and human relationships and with a statement of the exact complexion of that intangible moment.which we refer to as the present" contemporary New York Times review. <br /> <br /> Blending literary narrative with feminist theory Orlando explores Einstein's theory of relativity through the lens of a single life that evolves over centuries. "At the beginning of the book Orlando is a Elizabethan era boy of sixteen melancholy indolent loving solitude and given to writing poetry.the book ends on the 11th October 1928 and Orlando is a thoroughly modern matron of 36 who has published a successful book of poems and has evolved a hard-earned philosophy of life" Cleveland. The result is an allegory that questions the stability of any human category - individual character gender selfhood - and a novel that considers how time changes both individuals and society. Orlando is a testament to Woolf's innovative mind and to her role as one of the most important early contributors to feminist and queer literature. Fine. Crosby Gaige unknown
