Virginia Woolf and the Problem of the Subject: Feminine Writing in the Major Novels Makiko Minow-Pinkney 'A book that needed to be written...an original contribution.' Jane Gallop 'By far the most substantial poststructuralist study of Woolf's work.' John Mepham 'Remains essential reading.' The Cambridge Companion to Virginia Woolf This classic study, now made available again to readers, shows that Woolf's most experimental writing is far from being a flight from social commitment into arcane modernism. Rather, it can be best seen as a feminist subversion of the deepest formal principles of a patriarchal social order: the very definitions of narrative, writing and the subject. In a series of subtle readings of five major novels - Jacob's Room, Mrs. Dalloway, To the Lighthouse, Orlando and The Waves - closely informed by psychoanalytic theory, Makiko Minow-Pinkney presents Woolf as a committed feminist whose politics emerged as an aspect of her experimentation with language and form. Makiko Minow-Pinkney is Senior Lecturer in the School of Arts, Media and Education at the University of Bolton. She is currently writing a book on Virginia Woolf and the Writing Self for Edinburgh University Press.
