Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Literature, grade: 2,7, University of Münster, language: English, abstract: She was one of the most famous writers of her time and is known as a pioneer for modern literature. Virginia Woolf. From essays, through short stories and letters to novels, she had written innumerable works. Many of them were published in more than one edition. But why? What incites an author to republish a work in a new edition? What kind of changes does a work went through when it is revised and republished? And can a newer edition be denoted as "the better one"? To examine these questions, two editions of one of the most popular short stories of Virginia Woolf will be analysed in the following thesis. Therefore, at first something about Virginia Woolf's life and her way of becoming a well-known writer will be investigated. After that, the two editions of "Kew Gardens" from 1919 and 1927 will be compared regardingtheir format, printing, and reception. Finally, the results will be summed up and a conclusion will be drawn, where the thesis question 'Same work, different editions - Is the 1927th edition better than the 1919th edition of Virginia Woolf's "Kew Gardens"?' will be answered.
