  1. Blindness and Insight: ConsideringEthosin Virginia Woolf'sThree Guineas
    Abstract

    This essay considers how Virginia Woolf's personal and social anti-Semitism disrupts creation of a stable ethos in her political tract, Three Guineas. The article uses De Man's concept of blindness and insight to interrogate Woolf's own ideological blindness and forwards liminality as a frame within which to understand ethos in this work.
