Virginia Woolf Chronology

This study attempts to chart the progress of Virginia Woolf's major novels, listing the several hundred reviews and essays she published during her lifetime, and records her work with the Hogarth Press. It also traces her friendships with notable figures including T.S.Eliot, E.M.Forster, Katherine Mansfield and Vita Sackville-West and records her meetings with personalities as diverse as Henry James, Lady Diana Cooper, Sigmund Freud and the Princess de Polignac. While it notes Woolf's extensive reading, as well as her travels and her illnesses, it also sketches the major artistic and political events of the day. Edward Bishop has published articles on Virginia Woolf's novels and essays and has edited the manuscript draft of Woolf's first experimental novel, "Jacob's Room".
