Women in the Milieu of Leonard and Virginia Woolf: Peace Politics and Education

Copublished with Pace University Press, this book is a valuable addition to scholarship on Bloomsbury, the history of women in Britain, and the work of Leonard and Virginia Woolf. It portrays an era and illuminates the work of a number of famous writers by examining less well-known lives and works that were part of the adaptive complex, or milieu. Several essays and appendices contribute significantly to our understanding of the extent that the Woolfs collaborated with each other and with others. Beside the literary histories of S.P. Rosenbaum, this collection of original essays will be essential reading for students of Bloomsbury and women's history. Illustrated.

W.B. Yeats's Robartes-Aherne Writings: Featuring the Making of His "Stories of Michael Robartes and His Friends" (Modernist Archives)

The figures of Michael Robartes and Owen Aherne appear throughout the writing of the great Irish poet W.B. Yeats, featuring in his poems, short fictions, dialogues and as authorities in notes to his work. Bringing together into one volume published and unpublished writings featuring these two enigmatic figures, W.B. Yeats's Robartes-Aherne Writings traces their history and the development of Yeats's mystical thought that culminated (twice) in the publication of his visionary work A Vision (1925, 1937). Including reproductions of manuscript and notebook pages as well as transcriptions and extracts from a wide range of Yeats's mystical writings and substantial commentary and annotation throughout, this book is an essential resource for scholars of Yeats's thought, his stylistic evolution and the esoteric influences on modernist writing in the early 20th century.

This book is itself a resource to enable scholars and students in Yeats studies to explore the materials in his library, which, together with most of his unpublished papers and manuscripts, forms part of the writer's archive in the National Library, and all are available for consultation. This book could not have been written without the generous participation of the Yeats family over many years. Their legacy, now entrusted to the National Library, is robust and endless in potential. This book is about individual cases but also the building of an oeuvre. In short, this book enriches our understanding of Yeats's accomplishment as a writer in over fifty years of creative effort and nearly seventy-four years of abundant life.

In 2002, the Yeats family made a generous Heritage Donation to the National Library of Ireland. With additions as well as subtractions, most books listed in Edward O'Shea's A Descriptive Catalog of W. B. Yeats's Library (1985) were transferred to the National Library. The present volume is a first step toward a comprehensive book of Yeats's annotations. By inventorying the complete collection, The W. B. and George Yeats Library: A Short-title Catalog cross-lists images of copied and inserted material. Supplementary lists are incorporated into this fully indexed edition, which is enhanced by more than a dozen illustrations and an appendix to underscore growth of the poet's personal library in the 115 years since the public first glimpsed it in 1904.
