  1. It's an essay about the role of art and literature in society and the impact of sexism.  It is a comparative history of female - male writing in England. Woolf emphasized that only a woman privileged with financial means and private space --"a room of one's own"--  may hope to realize her artistic potential. Her treatment of this topic is considered to be the launch of modern Western feminist criticism, literary or otherwise.
