The making ofA Writer's Diary
Kate BriggsARTICLETextual Practice2011
A Writer's Diary (1953) is now generally considered an unfortunate and ill-conceived moment in the posthumous editing of the work of Virginia Woolf. Yet this article shows how early reviewers (among them Elizabeth Bowen and Maurice Blanchot) were uniquely alive to the specificity and the significance of Leonard Woolf's project. The book that Leonard Woolf literally cut out of his wife's diaries partakes of a special category of diary, one that an…

Translation and the Lipogram
Kate BriggsARTICLEParagraph2006Cited by: 1
This article argues for a definition of translation as a form of writing under constraint. Quite straightforwardly, the translator must write the original text again in a language other than the one in which it was originally composed. Both inhibiting and enabling, that restriction is also translation's resource, ensuring its distinctiveness as a writing practice and providing the key to its unique transformative possibilities. Like lipogrammatic…

The authors consider the problems and possibilities presented by using unstructured observation in the home setting. The findings of the original study are described elsewhere (Briggs, Askham, Norman, & Redfern 1998; National Health Service [NHS] Executive 1998). In this article, the authors discuss process issues (e.g., gaining and maintaining access to the research setting, disengaging, what can and cannot be observed, and the validity of the d…
