2 Virginia Woolf was the daughter of a Victorian critic, philosopher, biographer, and scholar Leslie Stephen. She was brought up in a large family where she could read in her fathers impressive library and get in touch with many well-known Victorians.

3 After the death of their father and Virginia's second nervous breakdown, Vanessa and Adrian sold 22 Hyde Park Gate and bought a house at 46 Gordon Square in Bloomsbury.

4 Virginia Stephen married writer Leonard Woolf on 10 August Despite his low material status the couple shared a close bond. Indeed, in 1937, Woolf wrote in her diary: "Love-making after 25 years can't bear to be separate... you see it is enormous pleasure being wanted: a wife. And our marriage so complete."

5 Together they established the Hogarth Press in 1917 that published, among others, Eliot's POEMS(1919) and HOMAGE TO JOHN DRYDEN(1924) the English translations of Freud, and Woolf's own writings.
