By Eric Zeng, Mattias Tung, Jeffrey Cheng, and Shashank Murching Bloomsbury Group By Eric Zeng, Mattias Tung, Jeffrey Cheng, and Shashank Murching

Bloomsbury Group A loose group of members that met in central London Associated with many people talented in the arts They met to discuss a wide range of topics, but mostly left politics out. Supported gay rights, the role of women in the arts, and other unorthodox ideas during the time period. Discussed Aesthetic and philosophical questions from an agnostic perspective. Was strongly influenced by G.E. Moore’s Principia Ethica. The members’ works influenced Modern literature and views on feminism and sexuality. They emphasized close, personal relationships and pleasure/enjoyment. http://www.online-literature.com/periods/bloomsbury.php

Principia Ethica Written by G.E. Moore, a British Philosopher in 1903. Regarded as the founding document or bible of the Bloomsbury Group Ethical book arguing that people were good by nature Focused on philosophy and ethics Very TOK-ish. Moore included things like fallacies and judgements. http://www.online-literature.com/periods/bloomsbury.php

Members Initially started with 10 members, but grew over time: Virginia Woolf (Writer) Leonard Woolf (Writer, political theorist) John Maynard Keynes (economist) Lytton Strachey (Writer and critic) Clive Bell (Art critic) E.M. Forster (Writer) Roger Fry (Painter and critic) Vanessa Bell (Painter and interior designer) Duncan Grant (Painter and designer) Desmond McCarthy (literary critic and writer) There were complicated relationships and affairs among the members. http://worldhistory.abc-clio.com/Search/Display/316222?terms=Bloomsbury+Group
