| (Virginia Woolf)
|
| This essay is based on a series of lectures Virginia Woolf delivered to the Arts Society at Newnham College and Girton College. She begins by announcing her basic thesis: that "a woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction." She examines disadvantages in the social, financial and educational structures, as well as the prejudices which have prevented women writers from succeeding throughout English history.
