The essay analyses the style and content of Virginia Woolf’s essays. The genre is reinvented by Woolf, who is famous for writing fiction without plot, and who yet often uses fabula-based structures in her supposedly non-fictional writings. The essay examines several examples of Woolf’s technique, addressing her writings on reading, fiction-writing, biography, travel and the art of seeing the world.

Autorka analizuje styl i treść esejów Virginii Woolf. Gatunek eseistyczny został na nowo wymyślony przez Woolf, znanej z pisania prozy bezwątkowej, którą jednak obserwujemy sięgającej do struktur opartych na fabule w swoich rzekomo niefikcyjnych dziełach. W eseju omawiane są przykłady tej techniki, odnosząc się do jej prozy eseistycznej o czytaniu, pisaniu fikcji, biografii, podróżach i sztuce oglądania świata.

The paper deals with the reception of the Russian character (mind and soul) by two prominent anglophone writers: Virginia Woolf and John Steinbeck. Virginia Woolf recognizes the Russians and their soul through the perception of the great Russian masterpieces of Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and Chekhov (The Russian Point of View, essay, 1925); Steinbeck’s A Russian Journal, 1948, presents the Russians as they were observed by the American author in their everyday life, rebuilding their country after WWII. The genre specificity of each work, the differences of time, emotions and purpose of writing, the Russian “experience” of each author, determine a certain heterogeneity of understanding of Russia and Russians; nevertheless, both form a heterogeneous whole of the Anglophone perception.

The paper focuses on the modernist psychological novel as a genre that dramatizes the radical transformations of spatial and temporal categories of the time. The genre is often identified with the narrative experiments of stream of consciousness, which represent the mind in and through time. Yet an equally important inheritance of the generic experiments is the spatialization of the mind — understood in the context of the spatial conception of human subjectivity and in terms of the spatial character of inner reality. The paper argues that the most vivid spatialization of the mind is evident in the portrayal of schizophrenic experience and demonstrates the thesis in the analyses of two novels — Virginia Woolf’s The Waves and Samuel Beckett’s Murphy.
