		While Woolf received no formal education, she was raised in a cultured and literary atmosphere, learning from her father's extensive library and from conversing with his friends, many of whom were prominent writers of the era.
		Woolf maintained that the purpose of writing an essay was to give pleasure to the reader, and she endeavored to do this with witty, supple prose, apt literary and cultural references, and a wide range of subjects.
		While the majority of Woolf's essays are devoted to literary matters, some of her most highly regarded nonfiction writings are topical and occasional essays treating such subjects as war and peace, feminism, life and death, sex and class issues, her own travels, and observations of the contemporary scene.

	Library of Leonard and Virginia Woolf
		Leonard’s father, Sidney Woolf, was an intelligent, hard-working, and successful barrister and Q. He died at age forty-seven, leaving his widow with nine children and a much-reduced income, which she managed with considerable common sense.
		The Woolfs’ shared interest in Russian literature is evidenced by Leonard’s gift of Dostoevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov (1912) to Virginia and Virginia’s gifts of The Idiot (1913) and The Insulted and the Injured (1915) to Leonard as Constance Garnett’s translations appeared in the second decade of the twentieth century.
		The Woolfs’ library at WSU is not complete, but it represents a substantial portion—more than 4,000 titles (approximately 6,000 volumes, given the multivolume sets) that Leonard and Virginia Woolf inherited, bought, were given, and published.

	The Common Reader, by Virginia Woolf (chapter2)
		But, if we consider the character of Sir John Paston, John’s eldest son, and his upbringing and his surroundings, and the relations between himself and his father as the family letters reveal them, we shall see how difficult it was, and how likely to be neglected—this business of making his father’s tombstone.
		John Paston, the father, had charge of some part of the business, and the children listened, as soon as they could listen at all, to talk of stone and building, of barges gone to London and not yet returned, of the twenty-six private chambers, of the hall and chapel; of foundations, measurements, and rascally work-people.
		Sir John was buried; and John the younger brother succeeded in his turn.

		My immediate boss, John Rosenberg, and the men who directed the productions we commissioned, were immensely cultured intellectuals who placed high demands on me. I was charged with reading and evaluating new story material and often had to read four books in a week.
		Sir John and I eventually became friends and I was a part of the Woolf and Rosenberg families before long.
		John Rosenberg had died and I believe to this day the collapse -- the destruction -- of the beautiful, creative world around him contributed to his fatal illness.

		In a touching homage to Sir John, whom he praised not only for his stalwart integrity but for a “wicked sense of humor” that is one of the actor’s most endearing traits, Sir Derek focused on a tragedy that first saw print four hundred years ago.
		Sir Derek recounted several anecdotes, among them the hilarious story of a poor Victorian Richard who, when his cue came to “tell sad stories of the death of kings,” planted his posterior on what he discovered to be a less than hospitable “ground” of prickly gorse.
