Relating to or characteristic of the Bloomsbury Group, a circle of influential British intellectuals and artists active in the early 20th century.
From Bloomsbury, a neighborhood in London, plus the suffix '-ian' (indicating belonging to a place or group). Bloomsbury comes from 'Bloom's bury' (settlement) in Old English.
The Bloomsbury Group included Virginia Woolf and John Maynard Keynes—they revolutionized thinking about economics, literature, and sexuality, yet met in someone's living room in an ordinary London neighborhood!
