Acknowledgements -- Introduction: Reading Virginia Woolf in Constellation with Walter Benjamin -- Modernity, Modernism and the Past -- Theories of History, Models of Historiography -- Antiquityand Modernity: Jacob's Room and the 'Greek Myth' -- Historical Fictions, Fictional Fashions and Time: Orlando as the 'Angel of History' -- Natural History andHistorical Nature in To the Lighthouse andOther Fiction -- Dreaming, History and the Visions of the Obscure in The Years -- This Stage of History: Between the Acts and the Destruction of Tradition -- A 'Common History': Anonymous Artists, Communal Collectivities -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index --.

This book analyses the representation of the past and the practice of historiography in both the fiction and the critical writings of Virginia Woolf. It argues for a critical historiography, distinct from the conventional assumptions of history writing, to be found in Woolf's essays and fiction, and links her historiographical imagination with WalterBenjamin's philosophy of history and associated theory of modernity along certain dialectical motifs and emblematic figures. Setting 'in constellation' the ideas of Woolf and Benjamin on the relationship between the past and the present, it inquiries into the intersections of Woolf's literary modernism with (feminist) politics and the experience of modernity, speaking to contemporary critical debates. Benjamin's thought provides an exciting new lens for reading Woolf's work whose historiographical constructions are shown to possess a pronounced political impetus that intervenes with how history is perceived and recorded, also addressing crucial questions about the meaning and status of modern artworks.
