Virginia Woolf and Feminism

ანოტაცია

A Room of One’s Own’ (1929) by Virginia Woolf is considered as one of the first feminist texts. In fact, gender problems are raised in nearly all her works whether it is his novels or numerous essays. Woolf’s attempt to claim equal rights for education, her attempt to ‘kill the angel of the house’ and give analyses of the works of women writers (The Brontë sisters, Jane Austin, Dorothy Richardson) to show that a woman-writer is capable of creating a worthwhile work of art, all represent her as an ardent fighter for woman’s rights. The articles gives analyses of these different facets of Woolf’s feminism in order to show that although her liberal ideas and humanist worldview strongly felt the injustice of the patriarchal society, she also well noticed the faults of the radical feminism.
