    Virginia Woolf: A Feminist Analysis

    “Science, it would seem, is not sexless: he is a man, a father, and infected too” (Woolf, 1938). Feminist Virginia Woolf declares this bold statement to express how science is sexist; gender bias by which women’s interests, insight, or perspective are disvalued and ostracized. Over the decades, there has been an outburst of the feminist writing on the philosophical development in literature and history. A majority of the feminist writings harshly criticize the philosophical traditions, which include topics of epistemology, ethics, and aesthetics, and brings up the expected question of why does the history of philosophy have such an importance impact on feminist philosophers? Countless feminist philosophers have studied the philosophical development throughout the years…

    Virginia Woolf's Professions For Women

    I will be analyzing Virginia Woolf’s “Professions for Women”. In Virginia Woolf’s essay she talks about the obstacles of being a woman in the workforce. She explains how societies expectations of how a women should be and how that expectation holds back women from expressing themselves freely. In the essay, I believe she is trying to achieve the goal of shedding some light of the obstacles for women and how that should be overcome. She wants to show how she overcame her issues in her work and how women have overcome those issues paving the way for women today. Her claim is that women should break free from society’s standards for women to achieve their professional goals in life.…

    Women In Virginia Woolf's Professions For Women

    In the 19th-century women began working outside of their homes, usually in textile mills and garment shops. Since then, women make up an abundant number of the United States workforce, while still continuing with being great mothers to their children. Women have faced extreme obstacles throughout the years while entering the workforce, such as lower pay, poor working conditions, and lesser job opportunities. In Virginia Woolf’s article; “Professions for Women”, she discusses her mental and physical struggles as a female writer. She also discusses the struggles of women in the workforce universally. There are many types of working women and troubles that have to endure, but this essay will discuss working mothers, women working outside of western…

    Virginia Woolf: Why Should Women Write?

    In Virginia Woolf’s essay A Room of One’s Own, she is asked to speak about women and fiction. Woolf begins by addressing limitations of women writers of the past, and draws on those works of literature in order to bring awareness to the present relationship of women and fiction in 1928. Throughout her essay, she quickly realizes that the prominence of women in fiction is very little, and she has “no arm to cling to” (149). According to Woolf, before her time it was very difficult to write fiction without the material things that she describes – money and a room of one’s own. Her exploration into women in fiction quickly turns into a call for action, because there are no longer any excuses for women to not write fiction. Any woman who possesses a desire to write can become a forerunner for future generations of writers as long as they have money and a room of their own.…
