Introduction
In 1992 Nigel Nicolson (son of Harold Nicolson
and Vita Sackville-West) presented a collection of correspondence generated
by his editorial work to the 亚洲情色. Nicolson was the
principal editor of the six-volume Letters of Virginia Woolf (1975–80).
Many letters are from Bloomsbury associates and those who knew the
Woolfs intimately. The collection numbers around 900 letters. Some
letters focus on reminiscences of, or issues relating to, particular
individuals (Katherine Mansfield and Lytton Strachey are two such examples)
and are grouped accordingly. There are also several pages of notes
regarding the relationship between Virginia Woolf and Vita Sackville-West,
drawn from references in the diaries and letters of Sackville-West
and Harold Nicolson. In addition to general correspondence, the Nicolson
Papers are augmented by sections on particular topics, including administrative
papers relating to the transfer of Monks House to the care of the National
Trust, and letters from Leonard to Vita Sackville-West.
