Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) was an English novelist, essayist, and critic who became one of the central figures of literary modernism. A founding member of the Bloomsbury Group, Woolf helped shape early twentieth-century intellectual and artistic culture through both her fiction and her essays.Her major novels-including Mrs Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, and The Waves-are known for their experimental narrative techniques, particularly the use of stream of consciousness and shifting interior perspectives. Woolf sought to capture the fluid movement of thought and memory, redefining the structure and possibilities of the novel.In works such as A Room of One's Own and Three Guineas, she also addressed the social and economic barriers facing women writers, becoming an enduring influence on feminist literary criticism. Woolf's stylistic innovation and psychological insight secure her place among the most important writers of the twentieth century.
