Introduction / Jeanne Dubino, Gill Lowe, Vara Neverow, and Kathryn Simpson -- Part one: Self and identity -- 'I am fast locked up', Janus and Miss Jan: Virginia Woolf's 1897 journal as threshold text / Gill Lowe -- Elusive encounters: seeking out Virginia Woolf in her commemorative house museum / Nuala Hancock -- Part two: Language and translation -- 'Can I help you?': Virginia Woolf, Viola Tree, and the Hogarth Press / Diane F. Gillespie -- Bilinguals and bioptics: Virginia Woolf and the outlandishness of translation / Claire Davison -- Part three: Culture and commodification -- 'Unity -- dispersity': Virginia Woolf and the contradictory motif of the motor-car / Ann Martin -- 'Am I a Jew?': Woolf's 1930s political and economic peregrinations / Kathryn Simpson -- Part four: Human, animal, and nonhuman -- The bispecies environment, coevolution, and Flush / Jeanne Dubino -- Posthumanist interludes: ecology and ethology in The Waves / Derek Ryan -- Part five: Genders, sexualities, and multiplicities -- Indecency: Jacob's Room, modernist homosexuality, and the culture of war / Eileen Barrett -- Multiple anonymities: resonances of Fielding's The Female Husband in Orlando and A Room of One's Own / Vara Neverow -- Two-spirits and gender variance in Virginia Woolf's Orlando and Louise Erdrich's The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse / Kristin Czarnecki.

These 11 newly commissioned essays represent the evolution, or coevolution, of Woolf studies in the early 21st-century. Divided into 5 parts - Self and Identity; Language and Translation; Culture and Commodification; Human, Animal and Nonhuman; and Gender, Sexuality and Multiplicity - the essays represent the most recent scholarship on the subjective, provisional, and contingent nature of Woolf's work. The expert contributors consider unstable constructions of self and identity, and language and translation from multiple angles, including shifting textualities, culture and the marketplace, critical animal studies, and discourses that fracture and revise gender and sexuality. Key Features: * Extends existing critical work that considers a multiplicity of constructions of 'Virginia Woolf' *Demonstrates original and diverse ways of reading this canonical (and contradictory) author *Explores multiple meanings related to the conjoined, fused, connected, and evolving nature of Woolf studies *Considers new configurations, new pairings, and new ways of placing ideas in tension around Woolf's work for a postmodern, postmillennial age
