AB This project analyses Virginia Woolf's perception of women and literature in her essay ARoom of One's Own (1929). And it does so from the dual perspective of class and gender.Woolf's essay foregrounds the critical role of material conditions in making possible thesuccess of any writer. However, women writers have traditionally confronted moredifficulties in achieving the same recognition as their male counterparts. Woolf is known forbeing a pioneer of literary feminism, but this claim involves several complexities that needto be explored. Issues like social class and social prejudice are also important parts of theequation. That is why this thesis outlines the writer's views on women's literature in thecourse of history against social and economic factors. Ultimately, I intend to highlight thegroundbreaking nature of Virginia Woolf's diachronic exploration of the discriminationsuffered by women as writers: an exploration involving literary and social statements.
