APPENDIX VII
Notes on the Journals
Although VW wrote for a wide range of journals during the years 1933 to 1941, we have to go back to 1910–16 for a period when she published as few essays. As in the preceding volumes of this edition, this appendix provides notes on the editors and their editorial policies as available from the journals themselves, from the Newspaper Press Directory and from biographical studies, including the ODNB. With each periodical are given details of VW’s contributions and often of the payments she received as recorded in her account book (WSU). For the ‘Additional Essays 1906–1924’ section, readers are referred to previous volumes of this edition, except for the Englishwoman (‘Lysistrata’) and the Highway (‘What is a Good Novel?’), where some information on the journal is given in the first endnote to each essay.
Atlantic Monthly (New York)
Founded in 1857 as a journal of literature, politics, science and the arts, by Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, James Russell Lowell, Oliver Wendell Holmes and several others; its first editor was Lowell. Ellery Sedgwick (1872–1960) was succeeded as editor by Edward Weeks (1898–1989) in 1938: ‘After standing at the steering wheel of the Atlantic for thirty years … the Editor relinquishes his duties … 1908 to 1938! … The Mate is now Master, and the ship is away on a true course’ (‘Contributors’ Column’, June 1938). For ‘Women Must Weep’ VW received $600, less commission = $535.80 (LWP, Ad. 18; and see p. 163, n. 1, above). VW’s contributions: 1938: ‘Women Must Weep’ (May and June); 1939: ‘The Art of Biography’ (April).
Daily Worker
Founded in 1930 as the official organ of the Communist Party of Great Britain, its editor for its first three years and again in 1939–49 was William Rust (1903–49). It survived a twelve-year boycott (1930–42) by wholesalers, during which the paper’s readers delivered the paper to newsagents. Since 1945 it has been owned and published by a readers’ co-operative; it was re-launched as the Morning Star in 1966. In 1936 its editor was Rajani Palme Dutt (1896–1974), author of The Political and Social Doctrine of Communism (‘Day to Day Pamphlets’, no. 39, Hogarth Press, 1938). VW’s contribution: 1936: ‘Why Art To-Day Follows Politics’ (14 December).
Folios of New Writing
A biannual edited by John Lehmann and published by the Hogarth Press in 1940–1; it replaced his New Writing, 1936–9, and was succeeded by Daylight in 1941 and then by New Writing and Daylight, 1942–6. LW described these volumes as ‘a cross between a literary magazine and ordinary hard-covered books of short stories, poetry, literary criticism, and politics … The status of contributors and the standard of their contributions were extraordinarily high’ (The Journey Not the Arrival Matters: An Autobiography of the Years 1939–1969 [Hogarth Press, 1969], p. 105). VW’s contribution: 1940: ‘The Leaning Tower’ (Autumn).
Hearst’s International combined with Cosmopolitan
A monthly magazine, created in March 1925 by the merger of Hearst’s International and Cosmopolitan, continuing the volume numbering of the latter and surviving until 1952. Its circulation was about 1,700,000. VW’s contribution, for which she received £200 (see V VW Diary, 11 and [25] August, 30 November 1937): 1938: ‘America, which I Have Never Seen …’ (April).
Listener
The British Broadcasting Corporation’s weekly literary journal. J. R. Ackerley, who was Literary Editor from the spring of 1935 until 1959, asked VW to write for the Listener as early as November 1935 (see IV VW Diary, 10 November 1935). He overstated her contribution when he reportedly said: ‘I have been lucky with my team – in particular with Morgan [Forster] and Virginia Woolf. What they said really did matter. You could feel their impact’ (The Letters of J. R. Ackerley, ed. Neville Braybrooke [Duckworth, 1975], p. 337, fn. 2). See also V VW Diary, 9 and 11 November 1936. VW was paid 20 guineas for the broadcast and publication of ‘Craftsmanship’: see WSU and VI VW Letters, no. 3222, [24 February 1937].
