A Room of One‘s Own

A Room of One‘s Own is a seminal work of feminist literature, asserting that "a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction." Woolf‘s 1929 extended essay is a powerful meditation on the historical and social conditions that have inhibited women‘s creative expression for centuries. Woolf explores themes of financial and educational disadvantage, the historical exclusion of women from intellectual spaces, and the psychological burden of female artists. She argues that intellectual freedom is dependent upon material conditions and that true creative genius requires an "androgynous mind"—a harmonious balance between the masculine and feminine sides of the psyche.
