2. BIOGRAPHY
• Adeline Virginia Woolf was an English writer, considered
one of the most important modernist 20th-century
authors and also a pioneer in the use of stream of
consciousness as a narrative device.
• Virginia Woolf was born in London: her father was a
famous author and mountaineer, and her mother a well-
known model.
• Her family hosted many of the most influential and
important members of Victorian literary society.
• Woolf and her sister weren’t allowed to go to Cambridge
like their brothers, but had to steal an education in their
father’s study.
3. • After her mother ‘s death at 13, Woolf had the first of a
series of mental breakdowns that were to plague her for
the rest of her life – partly caused by the sexual abuse she
suffered at the hands of her half-brother George
Duckworth.
• Despite her illness, she became a journalist and then a
novelist – and a central figure in the Bloomsbury group.
She married one of the members, the writer and journalist
Leonard Woolf.
• She and Leonard bought a small hand-printing press,
named it The Hogarth Press, and published books from
their dining room.
• They printed Woolf’s radical novels and political essays
when no one else would; and produced the first full
English edition of Freud’s works.
4. • During the interwar period, Woolf was an important part
of London's literary and artistic society
• Woolf became one of the central subjects of the 1970s

10. Woolf as a Feminist
• Woolf's changing representation of feminism in
publications from 1920 to 1940 parallels her involvement
with the contemporary women's movement (suffragists
and its descendants, and the pacifist, working-class
Women's Co-operative Guild).
• Before the Second World War and long before the second
wave of feminism, Virginia Woolf argued that women's
experience, particularly in the women's movement, could
be the basis for transformative social change.
• Woolf was deeply aware that men and women fit
themselves into rigid gender roles, and as they do so,
overlook their fuller personalities.
11. • In her eyes, in order to grow, we need to do some gender-
bending; we need to seek experiences that blur what it
means to be “a real man” or “a real woman.”
• Woolf wished desperately to raise the status of women in
her society.
• She advised women to write in order to move to the public
sphere
• She recognized that the problem was largely down to
money.
• Women didn’t have freedom, especially freedom of the
spirit, because they didn’t control their own income:
‘Women have always been poor, not for two hundred years
merely, but from the beginning of time. Women have had
less intellectual freedom than the sons of Athenian slaves.
Women have not had a dog’s chance of writing poetry.’
12. • Her great feminist rallying cry, A Room of One’s Own,
culminated in a specific, political demand: in order to
stand on the same intellectual footing as men, women
needed not only dignity, but also equal rights to
education, an income of “five hundred pounds a year”
and “a room of one’s own.”
• She states that the rights given to men about working
with equal rights as men, fair wages or equal pay, having
equal right in education and sex equality should be given
to women, as well.
