Virginia Woolf’s Women, Trapped and Freed

Cite this chapter.

• Sally A. Livingston  

Part of the book series: The New Middle Ages ((TNMA))

272 Accesses

“W hy are women poor?” asks Virginia Woolf in A Room of One’s Own . 1 Among the reasons she cites is the fact that “in the first place, to earn money was impossible for them, and in the second, had it been possible, the law denied them the right to possess what money they earned” (23). When Woolf published this book in 1929, the Married Women’s Property Act was nearly fifty years old, the professions had been opened to women for ten years, and they had been given the vote nine years previously. As she herself notes, “the excuse of lack of opportunity, training, encouragement, leisure and money no longer holds good” for women’s advancement (117).

Description for readers

Rachel Bowlby's acclaimed book on Virginia Woolf now appears with five new essays which look at Woolf in a number of new frames - as a woman essayist; as a city writer and critic of modern culture; and as a writer on love. Rachel Bowlby shows, with inimitable critical panache, how it is that Woolf's writing, in its many forms and fashions, continues to provide rich matter for thinking about the histories and futures of women, writing and culture.

Beer and Bowlby are theoretically sophisticated and innovative ... Edinburgh has produced fine, large, well-bound volumes ... two of the best recent books on Woolf||This collection will be invaluable to readers ... Bowlby's words are worth rereading, since studies which acknowledge the diversity and 'unsettledness' of Woolf's work are still few and far between.
