Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này
In 'A Room of One's Own,' Virginia Woolf constructs a sharply detailed and profoundly influential critique of the patriarchal limitations imposed on female writers and intellectuals. First published in 1929, this extended essay transcends its original lecture format, utilizing a fictional veil to delve into the intersection of women with literary creation and representation. Woolf's prose is fluid and exacting, a rally for recognition orchestrated in the cadence of narrative fiction, yet grounded in the stark realities of the feminist struggle for intellectual autonomy and recognition. This resourceful mingling of fact and fiction situates Woolf among the vanguard of feminist literary critique, providing context and commentary to the historical suppression of women's voices within the established literary canon. Virginia Woolf, with her exceptional literary prowess, embarks on this essay from a position of lived experience and recognition of the broader socio-historical currents of her time. Her own encounters with gender-based barriers and the psychological insights she developed in her broader oeuvre fuel the essay's core argument. The provenance of her writing in 'A Room of One's Own'—stemming from the dynamics of her personal journey and societal observations—elucidates the necessity of financial independence and intellectual freedom for the creative output of female authors. Woolf's narrative competence and critical acumen position her not only as a luminary of modernist literature but also as a vital provocateur in the discourse of gender equality. 'A Room of One's Own' remains a fundamental recommendation for readers seeking not only to understand the historical plight and literary silencing of women but also to appreciate the enduring relevance of Woolf's argument. Scholars, feminists, and bibliophiles alike will find in Woolf's essay an enduring testament to the necessity of giving voice to the voiceless and space to the confined. It is a rallying cry for the creation of a literary world that acknowledges and celebrates the contributions of all of its constituents, one where the measure of talent is not distorted by the filter of gender bias.
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.
