Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này

Virginia Woolf's seminal essay, "A Room of One's Own," is a pioneering exploration of the intersection between gender and literary creation. Utilizing a stream-of-consciousness narrative style, Woolf weaves together personal anecdotes, fiction, and socio-political commentary to assert that women require financial independence and personal space to cultivate their creativity. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century feminist thought, this work serves as both a manifesto and meditative piece, dissecting the historical barriers that have hindered women's contributions to literature and society, while advocating for their rightful place in the artistic canon. Woolf, a key figure in the modernist movement, crafted this essay drawing from her extensive experiences in the Bloomsbury Group and her immersion in the literary realm. Her awareness of the limitations imposed on women in literature, coupled with her personal struggles as an author, profoundly influenced her arguments. Woolf's unique ability to synthesize personal reflection with broader societal critique makes her work not only a reflection of her era but also a lasting statement on the enduring complexities of gender. A must-read for anyone interested in feminist literature, "A Room of One's Own" invites readers to contemplate the social constructs surrounding creativity and gender. Woolf's eloquent prose and incisive observations illuminate the obstacles faced by women writers, making this text essential for understanding the evolution of literary discourse and the imperative for inclusive representation in all artistic endeavors.

Giới thiệu tác giả

Virginia Woolf, an eminent figure of modernism and feminist literature, was born on January 25, 1882, in London. She was a pioneer in the use of stream of consciousness as a narrative device, and her literary achievements have established her as one of the leading writers of the twentieth century. Woolf's legacy includes seminal novels such as 'Mrs Dalloway' (1925), 'To the Lighthouse' (1927), and 'Orlando' (1928). In 1929, she published 'A Room of One's Own,' a pivotal feminist essay that addresses the issues faced by women writers and the need for economic independence and intellectual freedom. The essay is celebrated for its innovative narrative structure and is frequently cited in discussions of literary theory and gender politics. Woolf's writing is notable for its lyrical prose, exploration of subjectivity, and the psychological depth of its characters. Despite battling mental illness for most of her life, Woolf's contributions to literature were profound. Her works continue to inspire and challenge readers and writers alike. Woolf was a central figure in the Bloomsbury Group, an informal assembly of intellectuals and artists who influenced literature, aesthetics, and modern attitudes towards sexuality and feminism. Woolf's intellectual legacy can perhaps best be encapsulated by her own assertion in 'A Room of One's Own': 'A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction.' She tragically ended her life on March 28, 1941, but her work and influence endure.
