On or about December 1910 - Peter Stansky
early Bloomsbury and its intimate world
KORTE INHOUD
Studies in cultural history.
Peter Stansky paints a picture of the changing world in which the Bloomsbury set moved as the watershed to a new and more open society where for example E.M. Forster could write about love between men, and new artforms were in full bloom.
On or about December 1910 human character changed, Virginia Woolf remarked, and well she might have. The company she kept, the Bloosmbury circle, took shape before the coming of World War I, and would have a lasting impact on English society and culture after the war. Drawing upon his historical and literary talents, Peter Stansky captures the dazzling world of early Bloomsbury. The picture he presents, with all its drama in detail, encompasses the conflicts and sureties of a changing world of politics, aesthetics, and character.
