圖書描述

Holroyd's big, gossipy life of English historian Lytton Strachey (1880-1932), first published in 1968 and now in a revised, expanded edition, offers a vibrant, intimate portrait of the Bloomsbury circle, their love affairs, jealousies and creative ferment. In Eminent Victorians (1918), Strachey stripped away the pious camouflage of Victorian society, targeting hypocrisy, imperialism, militarism and religion. Holroyd, biographer of G.B. Shaw, credits Strachey with revolutionizing historical biography by emphasizing character and hidden sexuality and subverting traditional forms through caricature and psychological innuendo. Drawing on thousands of letters by Strachey and his Bloomsbury coterie, Holroyd unearths details of Strachey's adolescent self-loathing and sexual guilt; his proposing marriage to Virginia Woolf in an effort to renounce his homosexuality; his pacifism during WWI; and his relationship with his adoring live-in companion, painter Dora Carrington, who tolerated his gay affairs. This panoramic account of Strachey's trajectory from hypersensitive, shy Cambridge undergraduate to social and literary lion is peopled with the likes of D.H. Lawrence, Rupert Brooke, John Maynard Keynes, T.S. Eliot, Lady Ottoline Morrell, Augustus John and Bertrand Russell.

著者簡介

Biographer Michael Holroyd was born in 1935 and was educated at Eton College. His first book was a biography of the writer Hugh Kingsmill, published in 1964. The publication in 1967 and 1968 of his biography of Lytton Strachey was hailed as a landmark in contemporary biography and, six years later, his biography of the painter Augustus John confirmed his place as one of the most influential modern biographers. His biography of Strachey was used as a basis for Christopher Hampton's film Carrington (1994). The four volumes of Holroyd's life of Bernard Shaw appeared between 1988 and 1992 to critical acclaim.

A prominent campaigner for the promotion of literature, Michael Holroyd is a former Chairman of The Society of Authors (1973-4) and the National Book League (1976-8, now Booktrust) and a past President of English PEN (1985-8). He was Chairman of the Strachey Trust between 1990 and 1995, and Chairman of the Literature Panel of the Arts Council of England until 1995. He was also, until recently, Chairman of the Royal Society of Literature and of the Public Lending Right Advisory Committee. He has written for radio and television and lectures for the British Council.

Michael Holroyd is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and holds honorary degrees from the universities of Ulster, Sheffield, Warwick, East Anglia and the London School of Economics. In 1989 he was awarded the CBE for services to literature. He is married to the novelist Margaret Drabble and lives in London and Somerset.

Basil Street Blues, a volume of memoir, was published in 1999. In 2001 he was awarded the Heywood Hill Literary Prize. His most recent book is Works on Paper: The Craft of Biography and Autobiography (2002), a collection of essays and articles about biography and literature. Mosaic (2004), written partly in response to the reactions and discoveries of readers of Basil Street Blues, combines elements of a love story and a detective story and further explores some family secrets which the first book left unresolved.

Michael Holroyd was awarded the 2005 David Cohen British Literature Prize. His latest book, A Strange Eventful History (2008), tells the story of two theatrical dynasties - those of Ellen Terry and Henry Irving.
