Resumo: This article aims to discuss Virginia Woolf’s critical appraisal of the contemporariness of her contemporaries’ production, focusing on her 1923 essay “How It Strikes a Contemporary”. To that end, it contextualizes the publication of The Common Reader – First Series (1925) so as to problematize its conversational quality as a philosophical principle inherent to Woolf’s oeuvre (Pinho 2020). A comparison is also drawn between Woolf’s “How It Strikes a Contemporary” and Giorgio Agamben’s “What Is the Contemporary?” (2009) in order to shed light on the intersections between contemporary philosophy and the philosophical questions we find in Woolf’s writing.

Para tanto, o artigo contextualiza a publicação de The Common Reader - First Series (1925) de modo a problematizar sua qualidade conversacional como princípio filosófico inerente à obra de Woolf (Pinho 2020). Também é feita uma comparação entre "How It Strikes a Contemporary", de Woolf, e "What Is the Contemporary?", de Giorgio Agamben, (2009), a fim de lançar luz sobre as interseções entre a filosofia contemporânea e as questões filosóficas que encontramos na escrita de Woolf.UFSC2021-01-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/7463210.5007/2175-8026.2021.e74632Ilha do Desterro A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies; Vol. 74 No. 1 (2021): LiteratureIlha do Desterro A Journal of English Language, Literatures in English and Cultural Studies; v. 74 n. 1 (2021): Literatura2175-80260101-4846reponame:Ilha do Desterroinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCenghttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/article/view/74632/45278Copyright (c) 2020 Patricia Fagundeshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMarouvo Fagundes, Patricia2021-01-28T02:23:10Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/74632Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterroPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/desterro/oaiilha@cce.ufsc.br||corseuil@cce.ufsc.br||ilhadodesterro@gmail.com2175-80260101-4846opendoar:2021-01-28T02:23:10Ilha do Desterro - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false
