Drawing on extensive archival research into these organisations, Jones also positions Woolf\u2019s activism with regard to the institutional contexts in which she worked. Virginia Woolf: Ambivalent Activist demonstrates the degree to which Woolf was sensitive to the internal politics and conflicts of the bodies she was associated with and the ways in which she interrogated her ambivalent attitudes towards her activism throughout her literary career.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Now in paperback.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Find out more here: <a href=\"https:\/\/edinburghuniversitypress.com\/virginia-woolf-768.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>https:\/\/edinburghuniversitypress.com\/virginia-woolf-768.html<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Virginia Woolf: Ambivalent Activist demonstrates the degree to which Woolf was sensitive to the internal politics and conflicts of the bodies she was associated with and the ways in which she interrogated her ambivalent attitudes towards her activism throughout her literary career.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[40],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1891","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-publications"],"blocksy_meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/etudes-woolfiennes.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1891","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/etudes-woolfiennes.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/etudes-woolfiennes.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etudes-woolfiennes.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etudes-woolfiennes.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1891"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/etudes-woolfiennes.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1891\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3629,"href":"https:\/\/etudes-woolfiennes.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1891\/revisions\/3629"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/etudes-woolfiennes.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1891"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etudes-woolfiennes.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1891"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/etudes-woolfiennes.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1891"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
