Finding Patterns
Virginia Woolf and Marianne Moore took great joy in paper products and in the materials of bookmaking, and paper was insistent in their literary imaginations.1 In this essay, I extend into an early 20th century context what Joshua Calhoun calls ‘the poetics of paper’2 and posit a strong relationship between paper imaginaries and the materialities of paper in the work of these two modernist women writers. Both were interested in learning about the…

Virginia Woolf’s Common Readers in Paris
In this article, we analyze historical, biographical, geolocational, and book distribution data from the *Shakespeare and Company Project* to understand Virginia Woolf’s readership in Paris in the 1920s and 1930s. The lending library cards from Sylvia Beach’s archive reveal the names of Woolf’s readers, and include important information about their reading habits and professional lives. The article uses a mixed-methods approach, combining histori…
The Stories We Tell
This paper considers the the affective and narrative dimensions of considering project lifespans. How do collaborators feel about endings and how does that impact project outcomes and project planning? How might we consider digital projects as temporal and narrative forms deserving of analysis? How do professional relationships, team dynamics, and precarious labour conditions impact the longevity of projects? I argue in this paper that in additio…
Digital critical archives, copyright, and feminist praxis
With the continued proliferation of digitized materials, critical attention to the ideologies informing the creation of digital archives remains crucial. How are digital archives made and what are their goals? How do different participants in the process work together in collaborative teams towards shared ideals? This paper outlines the methodological and political considerations that underlie the creation of a critical digital archive of histori…
This Intimate Object’
This article explores ideas of globalism presented in John Lehmann's ‘periodical in book form’, New Writing. Running between 1936 and 1950 and published by five different publishers, New Writing aimed to provide reading material that documented the immediate threat of war and brought anti-Fascist activists from many countries together to combat it. The internationalist project of New Writing through the interwar period was problematically idealis…
Life before “The New Biography”
In the early 1920s, before Virginia Woolf wrote her now well-known essays “The New Biography” and “The Art of Biography,” the Hogarth Press published four biographies of Tolstoy. Each of these English translations of Russian works takes a different approach to biographical composition, and as a group they offer multiple and contradictory perspectives on Tolstoy’s character and on the genre of biography in the early twentieth century. These works …
