Virginia Woolf の "Teh Waves" という小説を今、読んでる。これは従来の「小説」という
ベキものではなく、新しいジャンルのものであると Woolf 自身が言ってたように思う。
他の人たちの書評によると、小説と詩との間みたいな感じだそうだ。僕も、読んでいてそう
感じる。

Woolf の作品はどれもさほど長くはない。"The Waves" も、僕の持っている本では
たかだか 230ページくらい。もしこれを日本語訳して文庫本に収録すると、たぶん
400 ページくらいかな？だから、すぐに読了できそうなもんだ。ところが、なかなか
そうもいかない。

今、全体の四分の一ほど読んだところ。単語や構文が複雑という
わけではないので、英語の得意な人なら辞書なしで大丈夫なはずだ。でも、それなのに
すいすいとは読めない。いや、すいすいと読み流したくはないのだ。こんなにまで細部に
神経をゆき届かせて丁寧に書かれた文章なんて、そんなに多くはないんではなかろうか。

まだ読了もしてないし、大した英語力があるわけでもなく、また文学に詳しいわけでもない
僕が偉そうなことは言えないんだけど、今のところ、僕はこの作品はまさに「詩」だ、
と感じている。だから、ないがしろに読み流す気に離れないし、読み流したらすぐに
訳がわからなくなる。

hangs in a loop of light.'

'I see a slab of pale yellow,' said Susan, 'spreading away until it

'I hear a sound,' said Rhoda, 'cheep, chirp; cheep chirp; going up

'I see a globe,' said Neville, 'hanging down in a drop against the
enormous flanks of some hill.'

'I see a crimson tassel,' said Jinny, 'twisted with gold threads.'

'I hear something stamping,' said Louis. 'A great beast's foot is
chained. It stamps, and stamps, and stamps.'

'Look at the spider's web on the corner of the balcony,' said
Bernard. 'It has beads of water on it, drops of white light.'

'The leaves are gathered round the window like pointed ears,' said
Susan.

そうそう。その部分は、この "The Waves" の冒頭近い箇所ですね。

ところで、この作品は9つのセクションに分かれていて、それぞれのセクションの冒頭には、
実に美しい詩的な風景描写があります。あまりにも美しいので、それらすべてを
引用したくなるほどです。今、僕が読んでいる箇所にも感動していますが、ほんの
二、三行だけ引用してみます。

The sun, risen, no longer couched on a green mattress darting a fitful glance through
watery jewels, bared its face and looked straight over the waves.
URLﾘﾝｸ(gutenberg.net.au)

あけぼのの時刻。地平線にある緑のマットレスに横たわっていた太陽が、水のような
宝石を通してチラチラとこちらを覗いていたのだけど、ついに顔をのぞかせた、というようなことを
書いていますが、よくもまあ、こんなに綺麗な表現が生み出せるものです。

この作品は、このように詩的な表現が、冒頭から最後まで、数百ページにわたって延々と続くのです。
だから、読んでいて、気を抜くことができないのです。素晴らしいと感動しながらも、
あまりたくさんのページ数を短時間にこなすことはできないのです。

丁寧に読まないと損だし、そして、丁寧に真剣に読むからこそ、読んでいてとても疲れます。
もちろん、悪い意味で疲れるわけじゃないんですけどね。

"The Waves" という作品に出てくる6人のうちの一人が Rhoda という名前で、Virginia
Woolf 自身の分身だそうだ。私自身も、Rhoda が一番好きだ。彼女のセリフを引用する。

'Oh, life, how I have dreaded you,' said Rhoda, 'oh, human beings, how I have hated you!
How you have nudged, how you have interrupted, how hideous you have looked in Oxford Street,
how squalid sitting opposite each other staring in the Tube! Now as I climb this mountain, from the top of
which I shall see Africa, my mind is printed with brown-paper parcels and your faces. I have been stained
by you and corrupted. You smelt so unpleasant too, lining up outside doors to buy tickets. All were dressed
in indeterminate shades of grey and brown, never even a blue feather pinned to a hat. None had the courage
to be one thing rather than another. What dissolution of the soul you demanded in order to get through one day,
what lies, bowings, scrapings, fluency and servility! How you chained me to one spot, one hour, one chair, and sat
yourselves down opposite! How you snatched from me the white spaces that lie between hour and hour and rolled
them into dirty pellets and tossed them into the waste-paper basket with your greasy paws. Yet those were my life

But I yielded. Sneers and yawns were covered with my hand. I did not go out into the street
and break a bottle in the gutter as a sign of rage. Trembling with ardour, I pretended that I was
not surprised. What you did, I did. If Susan and Jinny pulled up their stockings like that, I pulled
mine up like that also. So terrible was life that I held up shade after shade.

ここに出てくる Rhoda は女性で、六人のうちの Luois と恋仲になる。小さい時からあまりに繊細なため
人間や人生について純粋に考えすぎ、何もかもが嫌になったり恐れたりしてしまう。
そういう彼女の性格を最も良く表した一節が、ここに紹介したもの。あとでこの Rhoda
は自殺してしまう。Rhoda の文章は、読んでいて痛々しい。あまりにも良く彼女の気持ちが
分かってしまう。

Virginia Woolf の "The Waves" は小説と呼ぶべきものではなく、詩と言った方が
いいと僕も思うけど、ともかく読むのがしんどい。無理をして英語で読まずに日本語で読もうかとも
思うが、この作品は日本語で読んでも、たぶん読みにくいと思う。どうせ読みにくいんだったら、
英語のままでもいいか、と開き直ってる。第一、邦訳は二つ出ているけど、両方とも絶版らしく、
古本はすごく高い。

Woolf の "The Waves" は、僕の持っている原書では、230ページくらい。そのうち、
200ページくらいをやっと読んだ。あと 25ページほどで終わる。相変わらず、
読み進めるのがすごくしんどい。

読むのがしんどいのは、僕の英語力が足りないから「だけ」ではないらしい。
ネイティブらしき人たちが、アマゾンの書評などで、口を揃えて「ウルフは読むのが大変だが、この
"The Waves" は特に読むのが大変だ」と書いている。

辞書を引きながら通読するだけでも大変なんだけど、頻繁に引用される有名な詩歌の原典に戻って、
その引用されている短い一節のみならず、詩の全体をまたもや端から端まで辞書を
引きながら読んでる。また、古代ギリシャの故事などが出てきたら、それについての解説を
ネットなどでやっぱり調べて行く。Penguin Classics という edition で読んでるので、
Introduction も濃密であり、さらには Notes が丁寧。それらも丁寧に読んで行く。

僕は他の作家の作品を読む時は、ろくに辞書も引かないし、ネットで調査もろくにしない。
そんなことをしていたら、いつまでたっても小説の最後までたどり着けず、そのうちに
その作品に飽きてしまう。途中まで読んで、挫折。でも、Woolf だけは例外。

正直に言おう。僕は、一ヶ月くらい前に Wikipedia に貼り付けられている Woolf の
横顔の写真を見て、一目惚れしたのだ。彼女は単なる美人とは違う。痛々しいような繊細
かつ知的な風貌。この人の作品を僕は一行も読んだことがなかった。でも、
この写真を見て、何が何でもこの人の作品を読まねばならない、そう僕は思って、
まずは Mrs. Dalloway の映画を Youtube で見たあと、その小説を読んだのだった。

SKAN Productions --- "Famous Authors" --- Virginia Woolf, Novelist, 1882-1941
[Childhood] --- (1) London in the 19th century was a city of contrasts.
(2) There were the leisured rich with their secure incomes and elegant lifestyle. And there were the desperately poor.
(4) In between were the mass of professional people, office workers, tradesmen. People of all sorts formed the lower and the middle classes.
(5) Somewhere towards the upper end of the scale living in the respectable area of Kensington were the Stephen family.
(6) Virginia Stephen was born at 22 Hyde Park Gate on January 25, 1882.
(7) The tall house with its dark and narrow interior was to be her home until her father's death some 22 years later.
(8) Both of her parents had been married before and had been widowed.
(9) Leslie Stephen, her father, had been married to a daughter of William Thackeray.
(10) Julia, Virginia's mother, already had three children from her marriage to Herbert Duckworth.
(11) The Duchess of Bedford was her cousin. And she came from an artistic background.
(13) Her family was closely connected with the pre-Raphaelite painters: Holman Hunt and Edward Burne-Jones.
(14) And her sister, who took this picture of her, was a famous photographer, whose work is now much sought after.
(15) Leslie Stephen was a man of many and varied talents. Like his father and his grandfather before him, he was a writer.

続き --- (17) He also edited the Cornhill Magazine for a number of years and was the first editor of the Dictionary of National Biography, a monumental work which includes biographies of all men of note in English history.
(18) Virginia was their third child, following Vanessa and Thoby, and to be followed by Adrian.
(19) This meant a household of eight children, the older (???) separated from the younger by about 10 years.
(20) There were seven servants, all women, which was not an excessive number for a family of the size and status of the Stephens.
(21) In those days before any of today's modern conveniences which have so changed the way in which people live.
(22) Through her earliest years, Virginia became familiar with London's streets and played often in Kensington Gardens, which were only a hundred yards from her home.
(23) As she grew older, there would be skating on The Long Water on the park. The Stephens knew many of the literary and intellectual figures of the day.
(25) Throughout her childhood, Virginia would have encountered such people as Tennyson, George Eliot, and Henry James.
(26) As he talked, Henry James would tilt back his chair further and further as he became more and more involved in what he was saying.
(27) To the children's delight, he fell over backwards on one occasion but still finished what he had to say, lying on his back on the floor.
(28) The highlight of Virginia's year was the family holiday on St. Ives in Cornwall, where they spent several weeks every summer from her earliest childhood until she was 14.
(29) The whole family stayed at Talland House, which overlooks Carver's Bay on the Godreedy(???) Lighthouse, and surrounded themselves with friends and relations.
(30) It is difficult to underestimate the importance of these annual pilgrimages to Virginia.
(31) Since they undoubtedly gave her her happiest moments in this the happiest part of her childhood.

31:吾輩は名無しである
12/12/28 14:04:12.18 .net
(32) Memories of this time permeate her novels ("The Waves," "Jacob's Room," and most especially, "To the Lighthouse") draw upon her holidays here.
(33) Virginia's sister Vanessa recognized in "To the Lighthouse" an almost perfect recreation of their parents:
(34) the father dominant but insecure, the mother extraordinarily good but almost too acceptant.
(35) In the garden, they played croquet and cricket. This is the four-year-old Virginia. And the batsman is her brother Adrian.
(37) By the time she was 10, her family recalling her the Demon Bola and her elder brother Thoby thought her a better player than many of his contemporaries of the prep school.
(38) They had many visitors, from the famous, like Henry James and George Meredith, to the very young, like the future poet Rupert Brook,
(39) who was an enthusiastic participant in the day games of cricket.
(40) The children mixed little with everyday life in St. Ives, preferring their own company. But Virginia derived great joy from the physical surroundings.
(42) (6'45" あたり) At home, in London, Virginia spent much of her time in the tall, narrow house, to which her father had added an extra two stories to accommodate his large household.
(43) For, although Thoby and Adrian were sent to school, the two girls were not.
(44) In those days, boys went to school and university but, even in such an intellectually active and enlightened family as this,
(45) girls were expected merely to acquire the necessary accomplishments and marry. Vanessa and Virginia were educated at home by their parents.
(47) By all accounts, they were poor teachers, seemingly unable to understand how children could find difficult things which to them were obvious.
(48) Both lost their tempers easily, so it fell to the girls to educate themselves. Virginia always felt the lack of a formal education.

32:吾輩は名無しである
12/12/28 14:05:50.90 .net
続き --- (50) But the rigorous course of reading she set herself must have been almost more appropriate to her eventual career as a writer.
(51) (7'43"のあたり) She was a sensitive child. But, although she was late in learning to speak, she was very soon using words with extraordinary facility.
(52) She was accident-prone and excitable, sometimes wild and prey to what her family called "purple rages."
(53) She was always the family's story teller. And indeed, she and Vanessa decided very early that they would be, respectively, writer and painter.
(55) And so it turned out. (8'14") In 1891, they started a handwritten magazine, the "Weekly Hyde Park Gate News," which reported incidents in the household.
(57) Julia Stephen died in 1895, aged only 49.
(58) As if her mother's death was not enough for the naturally oversensitive Virginia,
her father was so overcome with grief and self-pity that he made no attempt to come to terms with his loss.
(60) Virginia had her first nervous breakdown. (8'49") The lot of looking after her fell to her half-sister, Stella, who took over the running of the household.
(62) Soon she became engaged. Her stepfather was not prepared actually to stop the marriage.
(64) But the prospect of losing his new prop so soon after losing Julia filled him with such despondency that he insisted that Stella should continue to live in his house after the marriage.

(65) A compromise was reached. Stella married and she was gloriously happy for three short months before she died.
(67) In two years, the settled happiness of Virginia's childhood had been irrevocably destroyed.
(68) By now, she was lonely. Her half-brothers went to work. Her brothers were away at school and Vanessa was out much of the time.
(69) Her father became increasingly gloomy and withdrawn. And Virginia's excursions into the social world were failures, since she he had no smortle (???).
(72) Something which probably affected the rest of her life was the sexual attentions of George Duckworth, the half-brother.
(73) It seems that his sympathetic embraces developed into something rather less brotherly.
(74) It is impossible to say whether these incidents contributed to her mental instability.
(75) But they must have been in part responsible for her inability to sustain a sexual relationship when she married.
(76) Virginia was also the main recipient of the emotional demands made by her father. Her resentment was tempered by her appreciation of his intellectual integrity.
(78) For support, she turned to an older woman, Violet Dickinson, to whom she remained emotionally close for some years.
(79) In 1904, Sir Lesley Stephen, for he had been knighted in 1902, died. Virginia was filled with guilt.

続き --- (81) (10'56") Forgetting his faults, and convincing herself that she failed to fully appreciate his good qualities.
(82) Her grief and morbidity became such that those around her realized that she was approaching madness.
(83) She heard birds singing in Greek and tried to commit suicide by jumping out of the window.
(84) Vanessa, Thoby, and Adrian were eager to leave 22 Hyde Park Gate, which Henry James had called the "House of All the Deaths."
(86) They moved northeast to Bloomsbury, which is made up of a series of leafy squares, surrounded with solid, early nineteenth-century houses.
(87) Extraordinarily enough, all their relatives disapproved of the move. Bloomsbury was not a good address.
(89) And this meant, however, that they were escaping from the eyes which had watched so eagerly and closely over their upbringings.
(90) (11'51") Suddenly they were free from the strict conventions of their class and age.
(91) In 1899, Thoby went to Cambridge University, where he soon became friendly with some people, who were members of the group called the "Apostles."
(92) It had been founded in 1820, and only new undergraduates of exceptional promise were invited to join, usually no more than one or two each year.
(93) Members remained active for life, and this time such notable figures as E. M. Forster, Bertrand Russell, and the philosopher G. E. Moore.
(94) Their weekly discussions were supposed to be held in a spirit of complete intellectual honesty.
(95) Leonard Woolf was invited to join in 1902. Other undergraduate members of this time included Lytton Strachey, Saxon Sydney-Turner, and Maynard Keynes.
(97) All four were to become part of what is now called the "Bloomsbury Group." Thoby was not himself an Apostle. And nor was his friend Clive Bell.

(100) (13'15") But the Stephen household at 46 Gordon Square must have seemed an ideal meeting place for the group, once they had left Cambridge to London.
(101) They all came to the Thursday evening's gatherings. Strachey was odd to look at but witty and cultured, and later to a famous biographer.
(103) Clive Bell, whose intellect tended to be underestimated by his friends, was admired for being a mixture of English country squire and avid lover of literature and art.
(104) He was soon to become an influential writer about art. Saxon Sydney-Turner was thought by all to be brilliant, but he never in fact achieved anything at all.
(106) The man whose ideas they all admired most was the philosopher and Fellow Apostle, G. E. Moore.
(107) His "Principia Ethica" was almost a Bible to them, with its extreme rationalism and its rejection of received truth unless the truth in action could actually be proved.
(108) Virginia first listened to and then participated enthusiastically in the discussions.
(109) And this must largely have made up for the university education she had missed.
(110) The beautiful Miss Stephens, as Vanessa and Virginia were known, would have been an added attraction to the Gordon Square House, had not most men in the group been homosexual.
(111) This didn't, however, stop Lytton Strachey from proposing to Virginia.
(112) (14'55") And she seriously considered his proposal before he himself realized that he could not go through it.
(113) In 1904, she published her first article in a weekly newspaper and was soon writing reviews and other short pieces.
(115) She also taught at Morley College, an evening institute for working men and women.
(116) Here, she had her main experience of the kind of people who read books rather than write them.
(117) She appreciated their intelligence and saw how they suffered because of their relative lack of education.

37:吾輩は名無しである

(118) But she worked there for eight years and her income meant that she did not need to work at all must be some measure of her interest and concern.
(119) In 1906, Thoby died of typhoid, which he caught on holiday in Greece. (15'47") Only two days later, Vanessa became engaged to Clive Bell.
(121) They kept the Gordon Square House after their marriage. And Adrian and Virginia moved a few hundred yards to Fitzroy Square.
(123) They still spent much time together, and as little as a year after the wedding, and Clive and Virginia began a flirtation which was to continue for some years.
(124) She was certainly not in love with Clive. Indeed it seems that her main motivation was her loneliness, in the face of her sister's married happiness.
(126) Of course, this behavior didn't bring Vanessa any closer to her. Virginia was a sparkling talker, not least because of her almost uncontrolled imagination.
(128) She would introduce newcomers with entirely invented descriptions of their lives and characters.
(129) In her conversation and in her letters, she tended to describe in her brilliant and imaginative way things as she felt they ought to be rather than as they were.
(130) In 1910, there were two distinct parts to the Bloomsbury Group.
(131) Centered around Vanessa and Clive, were an art set, including Roger Fry, who was responsible for the first post-impressionist exhibition in London.
(132) Literary Bloomsbury included Lytton Strachey and Virginia, who was still writing reviews and was working hard on her first novel. E. M. Forster was also a part of the circle.
(134) (17'31") Nineteen-ten (1910) was also the year of the "Dreadnought hoax," as it became known.
(135) Adrian and her friend managed to convince the Navy the newest and most secret ship HMS Dreadnought was to be visited by the Emperor of Abyssinia and his entourage.

(136) This is Virginia. The successful hoax made the national front pages. Soon afterwards, Virginia suffered another nervous breakdown.
(139) (18'09") Perhaps because of the excitement of this incident or perhaps because she thought she was close to finishing her first novel.
(140) Since 1904, Leonard Woolf, who was one of Thoby's original friends in Cambridge and an Apostle, had been a civil servant in Ceylon.
(141) In June 1911, he turned on leave and before the year was out, he proposed to Virginia.
[Marriage] (142) Leonard Woolf's father had been a successful barrister, but had died age 44, leaving a widow and nine young children.
(143) Leonard did well at school and expected to do equally well at Cambridge.
(144) He was perhaps overconfident. He did not do particularly well in degree and, did even worse, in the civil service examination.
(146) He ended up in Ceylon, where he was a remarkably successful administrator.
(147) Virginia, with her 9,000 pounds' capital, and 400 pounds a year income, was not considered particularly well off by members of her class,
but the fact that Leonard, as a successful civil servant, had been earning only 260 pounds a year, put this figure rather more in perspective.
(149) Nevertheless, Virginia was largely accurate when he wrote to Violet Dickinson, telling her she was going to marry a "penniless Jew."
(151) For Leonard had given up his job in the hope that she would marry him and intended to earn his living as a writer.
(152) They married in August 1912, Virginia aged 30 and Leonard 31.
(153) (20'02") And after their honeymoon, they moved to their rooms in Clifford's Inn.
(154) Leonard published his first novel, based on his first experiences in Ceylon, but it was a critical, rather than financial success.
(155) Virginia was continuing to work on "The Voyage Out" as she had been for many years. As it neared completion, her health declined.

続き ---(157) (20'26") Throughout her life, her major nervous crises and periods of mental illness coincided with a period between the completion and publication of her novels.
(158) She began to suffer delusions, would not eat, and was sent to a nursing home. When she moved back to London, she tried to commit suicide.
(160) Throughout this period, Leonard, who hadn't been properly warned of the extent of Virginia's mental instability, was suffering too.
(161) But he did eventually discover that, by keeping her away from excitement, not allowing her to get tired, and making sure that she ate properly,
he could keep her healthy both mentally and physically.
(163) To this end, they left Central London, moving to Richmond. Hogarth House was to be their home until 1924.
(165) Even before her marriage, Virginia had been spending some time outside London, on the South Downs close to Brighton.
(166) This house, in the village of Firle, still bears the name she gave it, "Little Talland," in memory of her happy childhood holidays in Cornwall.
(167) On a walk with Leonard along the Downs, she discovered Ushen(???) House. It was to remain her favorite home, beautiful and melancholy.
(169) Duncan Grant painted this group at Ushen(???). "The Voyage Out" was published in 1915 to critical acclaim.
(171) No praise was more welcome to Virginia than that of E. M. Forster, who was by now the most successfully established writer of the Bloomsbury Group.
(172) (22'20") For the 20 years after its publication, she experienced no major breakdowns and settled down to married life and to writing.
(173) Many of her friends, from this time onwards, were completely unaware of her history of mental illness.
(174) To them she appeared lively and balanced.
(175) She was indeed happy for much of the time thanks to the stability which Leonard had brought to her life.

(176) (22'49") Theirs was a successful marriage and it is quite likely that, without Leonard's love and support, Virginia would never have been able to write as she did.
(177) In 1917, the Woolfs bought a printing press and published a small book.
("Two Stories" というタイトルの本の表紙を映した映像）
(178) The work was time-consuming but they did it all themselves and made a small profit.
(179) The Hogarth Press expanded into a major publishing company over the next few years
and was the first publisher of T. S. Eliot and Katherine Mansfield, both friends of Leonard and Virginia.
(181) Katherine Mansfield was important to Virginia as the first other woman she knew who was entirely committed to writing.
(182) As their books became more successful, they did less actual printing.
(183) But, for many years, Virginia spent her afternoon setting type, sewing bindings, and packaging up orders.
(184) To her dismay, they had to leave Ushem in 1919. And they moved a mile or so to Monk's House, Rodmell. Monk's House was their country home until Virginia died.
(187) There was no mains water, gas, or electricity. But as her novels became more and more successful, they were able to improve the house and employ a gardener.
(189) In "Jacob's Room," which is in part a memorial to her brother Thoby, she broke with the traditional form of the English novel.
(190) The real turning-point came in 1926, with the success of "To the Lighthouse," after which money was never a worry.
(191) (24'37") Virginia was well enough now to undertake a London house, something which she had greatly missed.
(192) In 1923, Virginia met Vita Sackville-West, a gifted and attractive novelist whose family home was the 16th-century Knoll in Kent.
(193) By 1925, they were close friends. Whether or not their love affair was physical is something that will probably never be known.

続き --(195) But they were certainly much attracted to each other. In "Orlando," Virginia describes Vita's life, as if she aged from 16 to 36, between the years 1586 and 1928.
(197) Starting life as a boy and changing into a woman, this is Vita dressed up as Orlando.
(198) (25'45") At Charleston, a few miles from Monk's House, Vanessa lived with her children.
(199) Virginia was bitterly unhappy about having none of her own. Her doctors had decided that her mental equilibrium was too precarious to take such a risk.
(200) Quentin Bell, her nephew and the author of the fullest biography of her, remembers her affinity with children.
(201) The way she was able to join in their games without condescending to them, effortlessly accepting their fantasies and delighting them in her company.
(202) With older people, who saw her as a celebrity, she seemed to enjoy her power to terrify.
(203) Perhaps she was getting her own back on her misery on social occasions when she was younger.
(204) The publication of "A Room of One's Own" in 1928, assured her of a place at the forefront of the feminist movement with its witty and polished comparison of the lots of men and women.
(205) She became more and more famous, and more and more people wanted to know her.
(206) (27'08") One such was a composer, Gould(???) Ethel Smyth. Virginia likened her friendship to be in court by a giant crab.
(208) Nineteen thirty-nine (1939) brought a start to the Second World War. The Woolfs' house in London was bombed, so they had to live all the time at Monk's House.
(210) This dramatic woodcut gives us some ideas to the scene of German planes that flew over the house on their way to bomb London.
(211) There were many pressures on Virginia. (27'45") Her stability relied on rest, a calm environment, and nourishing food. And these were now not possible.

(214) The war depressed her, and also reminded her that she had last gone mad during the First World War. And finally, she was finishing "Between the Acts."
(216) As always, writing excited and then depressed her.
(217) (28'07") On March 28, 1941, she wrote this note for Leonard, explaining that she was hearing voices and was certain she was going mad and would not recover.
(219) She left the house and walked down to the River Ouse, where she drowned herself.

Virginia Woolf's house （Youtube 上のビデオ）の書き取りURLﾘﾝｸ(www.youtube.com)
このビデオも、とても面白いです。
(1) SHOW HOST: This very pretty unprepossessing house in the Sessex village of Rodmell was home to one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century: Monk's House.
(2) It was Virginia Woolf's country retreat.
(3) Virginia Woolf is the most famous British writer in the 1920s and '30s. Her work and her life are closely associated with women's rights.
(4) But she was a tortured genius who took her own life at the age of 59. Virginia Woolf suffered from severe depression throughout her lifetime.
(5) And she experienced several nervous breakdowns. But during that period, she never stopped writing: novels, journals, letters, diaries. . . .
(6) (0'46") And together with her husband Leonard, she founded the Hogarth Press, which published works by authors such as T. S. Eliot and D. H. Lawrence.
(7) Virginia and Leonard were members of the infamous Bloomsbury set, who soon adopted Monk's House as a regular retreat.
(8) They were intellectuals, artists, and writers, and the place is decorated with avant-garde style by various members of the Group.
(9) (1'10") Monk's House was acquired by the National Trust in the 1980s. For the last ten years it has been looked after by Jonathan Zoob and his wife Caroline.
(10) And I'm very pleased to meet you.
(11) JONATHAN: Nice to meet you.
(12) SHOW HOST: Do you know, as I walked into this house, it embraced me.
(13) JONATHAN: Yeah.
(14) SHOW HOST: It really did like a mini-trance and I love the art(???) and colors.
(15) JONATHAN: It's a treasure trait(???) of the whole spirit of the Bloomsbury Group. And not just the paintings, they painted all the surfaces. . . .
(16) HOST: Exactly, exactly, just like Charleston. I see the table is painted, the lampshades. I notice there's a packet of cigars there. Are they yours? Prop.

12/12/29 14:50:27.13 .net
(17) JONATHAN: No, those are the Scarson(???). Virginia is known to have smoked.
(18) HOST: Really?
(19) JONATHAN: Yes. And she would have sat there in that chair. There are photographs of her in that chair, uh, in front of the fire, which is the obvious place in a very cold, damp room like this.
(20) HOST: So, do you think these ten years they mostly built up a picture of what she's like a very good picture? Just tell me a little about that woman.
(21) JONATHAN: Well, she was, uh, a genius and obsessed with words. So, all her life, she was focused on writing. It could have been letters to a friend. It could have been her diaries, which she kept every single day.
(22) And of course, then, her great works, novels. She was also reviewing books. So she was just surrounded with words.
(23) HOST: I think she was writing at a time when men had all the political power and the wealth.
(24) (2'39") JONATHAN: Yeah, she was a proto-feminist in an era where that was really fashionable.
(25) She wrote "A Room of One's Own" about how she didn't just want to be an ordinary little housewife
but that she wanted to have the space and the freedom to devote herself to her work.
(27) (2'57") HOST: Throughout the 1920s, for that whole decade, she had a very close, intimate relationship with Vita Sackville-West.
(28) JONATHAN: Well, she was somebody who was maybe quite confused in her own mind about her sexuality.
(29) And she certainly explored some quite intimate relationships with other women, uh, not just with Sackville-West but also the famous composer Ethel Smyth.
(30) And I think this is part of the whole Bloomsbury experience, that they were experimenting, uh, in many of the ways in which they lived their lives.
(30-B) HOST: Yes.

(31) (3'33") HOST: Monk's House was a retreat from the busy chaotic phantom of life. But Virginia Woolf's real retreat was the rambling garden, complete with orchids, which became an inspiration to her.
(32) In 1934, Leonard built this small writing lodge especially for her. It's a marvelous writing studio.
(33) There's a writing shed, in fact a clappable(???) shed. It must be the most famous one in the world. You're talking about sheds.
(34) JONATHAN: Ha, ha. . . . It certainly is most of the most, and it's something that a lot of people come to see here, exactly, where was she when she wrote these famous words of "To the Lighthouse."
(35) And the paper that she wrote on, this blue paper, because, panish(???) she had bad eyes, so she didn't like white paper.
(36) (4'16") Just think how many famous people, let's say eighty to a hundred years ago, would have sat here under the canopy of this chestnut tree.
(37) JONATHAN: They'd love to come down here to work but they were definitely entertained here as well.
(38) And there are photographs of the Bloomsbury Group assembled, in fact, on this very bit of terracing here. People like E. M. Forster, T. S. Eliot. . . . They all came here and were all photographed here.
(39) HOST: Despite her lifestyle and open relationships, Virginia Woolf's heart belonged to Monk's House and the man she shared it with was Leonard.
(40) And he did support her in everything she did. He was a loving man. And, and, I know they had a great friendship right throughout their life.
(41) (5'00") JONATHAN: Yes, yes, and she, when she died, said in her, the, letter that she left, that "you have been the best husband"
that anyone could have been because, obviously, she didn't want him to feel guilty about it, "if only I have done this. . . ."

(42) HOST: After Virginia Woolf 's death, her husband Leonard continued to live here at Monk's House until his own death in 1969.
(43) And there's no doubt about it this humble little house really does embody the spirit of one of the twentieth century's greatest writers.
(44) It illuminates her life and it's definitely well worth a visit.

Virginia Woolf についてのドキュメンタリーの書き取り
The Mind and Times of Virginia Woolf (Part 1 of 3) (9'54") (URLﾘﾝｸ(www.youtube.com))

HERMIONE LEE [Virginia Woolf Biographer]: (1) It's clear from the evidence Virginia could be described as manic-depressive. And, who knows,
if she had had ???, uh, she might have lived longer. We don't know that.
(2) She did alternate between periods of mania and high excitement and periods of very inert depression. She suffered terribly from sleeplessness.
(3) She had appalling headaches. I mean, these are not just headaches that you and I know. These are really terrible incapacitating headaches.
(4) She clearly suffered tremendously, um, from a lot of physical pain all through her life. And I think her life is a story of great courage and stoicism.
[Virginia の日記か何かの朗読] (0'41") (5) Two days ago, Sunday the 16th of April 1939, to be precise, Necessar(???) decided not to write my memoirs. I should soon be too old. There are several difficulties.
(6) In the first place, the enormous number of things I can remember. Many bright colors, many distinct psalms, some human beings, caricatures, comic,
several violent moments of being, always including a circle of the scene which they cut out, and all surrounded by vast space.
(7) That is a rough visual description of childhood. This is how I shape it and how I see myself as a child.
DR. FRANCIS SPALDING [Art histories, critic and biographer]
(8) Virginia Woolf was born in London. Her parents were, uh, Leslie and Julia Stephen. Her mother had descended from an Anglo-Indian family. The women of
the family were famous for their beauty. Something of that Virginia Woolf inherited.
(9) Her father, Leslie Stephen, who became Sir Leslie Stephen, was an eminent author and editor. He edited 26 volumes of the Dictionary of National Biography.
