Introduction
The prestige attached to the Leonard and
Virginia Woolf holdings, and the generosity of Trekkie Parsons in depositing
them at the 麻豆传媒社区入口 in the early 1970s, firmly established
the Library as a destination for literary scholars world wide. Critical
and editorial work on the Bloomsbury Group shows no sign of abating
and the archival holdings at Sussex continue to generate secondary
material in the form of biographies, bibliographies and anthologies.
It is unsurprising, then, that other Bloomsbury-related collections,
often reflecting this secondary work, have found a natural home at
Sussex.
The Bloomsbury-related collections include:
The AO Bell Papers: Over 1,300 letters relating to the preparation of Quentin Bell’s two-volume biography of Virginia Woolf
The Quentin Bell Papers: Over 5,000 letters relating to Quentin Bell’s research
The Francis Birrell Papers: Letters from Francis Birrell to his father Augustine
The Charleston Papers: Over 5,000 letters, chiefly photocopies, concerning the affairs of the Bloomsbury Group, with a particular emphasis on Duncan Grant and Clive and Vanessa Bell
The Nigel Nicolson Papers: Around 900 letters generated
by Nigel Nicolson’s
editorial work on the Bloomsbury Group
